Summary

You may know Caroline Baudino as the Cali-blonde, Gen X influencer with all of the jewelry stacks on TikTok. Caroline has built a devoted community based on one simple daily ritual: getting dressed to feel your best. This week, we sit down with “Shop With Caroline,” as she’s known to her more than one million followers, who tune in for her motivational “coffee chats,” affordable Amazon finds and the realities of being of the “sandwich generation,” caring for kids and elderly parents at the same time.

Listen in to hear about:

How Caroline was able to build a six-figure per month style business with her husband – one DM at a time
The beloved jewelry brands that she thinks everyone should know about, including lab grown diamonds
Advice for buying great swimwear online, at a great price
Beauty finds: The one concealer she cannot be without, the bronzing drops that she swears by, her Augustinus Bader moisturizer dupe and more
