About Me

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for stopping by. 

This little adventure began as a major, "Let's try it!" and turned into the most amazing gift.  

My name is Kristen (not Lou) and I live in Dallas with my husband, two daughters and doodle, Walter.  I was born and raised here in Dallas, popped over to TCU for college.  Shortly after meeting my husband, Chase, we moved to New York City.  We married and lived on the Upper West Side for a few years.  After getting pregnant with Elle in 2011, we decided it was time to get back to Texas.  A few years later, Mary Mills came along in 2014.  I was fortunate enough to stay at home with our babies but have always needed to be creative.  

Now enough about me!  Lou Collection is named after my grandmother, Mary Lou.  She has always been a design inspiration for me, from fashion to decor, this woman knows what taste is.  I knew I needed to name this venture after her.  Her name is Mary Lou Jones.  She is 92 years old.  And from her Lou Collection was born. 

What began in August of 2018 will continue to evolve but stay classic.  I will always be transparent and honest with our products and service.  I will continue to grow and bring you pieces that I would put in my own home.  I hope you enjoy my finds as much as I have enjoyed searching for them.  

Happy Hunting.
