Welcome to By Bernice ♡︎

If you’re someone who enjoys making new memories, small joys and finding beauty in everyday life, I’m really glad you’re here.

By Bernice is where I’ll be sharing the little things I’m trying, rediscovering, and falling back in love with. From weekend trips and cute cafes, to getting dressed with intention and finding beauty in everyday routines. Here, you’ll find reflections, guides, and favorites; things I’ve tried, places I’ve loved, and little rituals that bring me joy. Nothing here is meant to be perfect or aspirational in an unrealistic way. It’s simply honest, intentional, and lived-in.
