Welcome and thanks so much for visiting With a Touch of Luxe, an Atlanta based lifestyle blog, written by me, Lana Brooks. My aim for this blog is to share practical tips to help you tackle the everyday a little more elevated, effortless, and ‘with a touch of luxe.”

More about me:

I was born and raised in a Southern California surf town. At 17 years old, I became a professional ballerina, living on my own, and exploring the different cities my career took me. This early exposure to the arts, culture, and travel sparked my passion for all things luxe. 

Fast forward 20 years and I was a ballet instructor, wife, and mother of 2, happily living in sunny Southern California.  In February of 2019, our family underwent the hugest change thus far by packing our bags and moving cross country to a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia.  We traded in beaches for peaches and love our new home, state, and lifestyle.  I no longer teach ballet but now I am able to devote my time to the things I love most: family, fashion, food, fitness, and fun!

With A Touch of Luxe was born in 2018 after numerous nudges and requests from dear friends to share with them how I balanced living my life to the fullest while staying stylish, elegant, and chic. I also was yearning for a creative outlet to share my thoughts, ideas and passions.

The word luxe means something different to everyone. To me, luxe is not defined by a price tag or social status. It is finding the opulence and grandeur within yourself and allowing it to effortlessly shine bright, influencing all facets of your life. I know this blog will serve everyone, no matter where in their journey, because we all can, and do, deserve a life with a touch of luxe.
