I saw a stylist on TikTok (don’t even get me started on how depressing this ban is) say that the way to develop a personal style, is to pull your entire wardrobe out and play dress up.
In this process I have A. Realized I have a lot of stuff that doesn’t fit be right now, and B. I maybe like wearing a bra as a top under jackets? Either way it’s a fun exercise in trying something new. 👗

I will not lie…2024 was HARD. Probably the hardest year of my life. But in between all the hard stuff, were so many fun moments, wonderful clients, and amazing jobs. Oh, and so many fit checks.
The big takeaway for this year is that I have the most incredible friends on planet earth, and I am unbelievably lucky to be able to do a job that I love. I’ve been doing this for 22 years. Literally half my life.
I’ve overcome more than I ever thought I could, and I’m stronger than I ever gave myself credit for.
OMG is ready for 2025 ❤️

Reintroduction time.
For those who have followed me for a while, you’ve always known me as my previous name. After months of work (yes it can take that long), my name is officially Olivia Meredith in the eyes of the government. One of the only completely clear decisions I’ve made in the last year was to use my middle name as my last name. I never questioned it, it just felt right.
Welcome to Olivia Meredith Group. It’s still me, doing the same stuff, just with a name that is mine. And I feel amazing about it.
I was trying desperately to get a decent looking still shot to serve as my temporary headshot, but I gave up and you must all suffer through this video with me now 😂

Annnnnnd the bridal version! I cannot take credit for the genius idea of turning the little sparkle into a ring. @thebeardedladypdx came up with that one and I’m obsessed with it 💍 ✨
The rebrand is coming…commercial version
The website is still up under my old name because I’m waiting on my DBA approval. I never knew how much work changing a name (personal and business) was until now, and it’s not for the faint of heart. I’m giving myself till 1/1 to have everything switched over, but hopefully it will be done much sooner. Thanks for going on this journey with me ❤️🩷

Pink will always be in. Period.
Here’s me in my full office day glory (this is what I look like when I’m answering your emails 😂). Just a little touch base on all the changes. Things are changing, but also not. Still me, still doing the same work that I love. Thanks for all the support ❤️
Sorry for the neighborhood puppy barking in the background. I swear he’s really cute.

A very quick explanation on how I style my bangs! This lil dryer makes all the dif! @sharkbeauty
Serving 70’s mom for work today because it’s finally cool enough for me to wear outfits again! The lip combo (because someone asks every time) is @maybelline lip liner in magnetic mauve, and NYX fat lip oil in “that’s chic”
August updates friends!
This month has been a lot busier than anticipated, both professionally and personally. I will be out of town for work from 8/15 - 8/18, and I’m moving to Northwest starting on 8/20. I’m hoping to be fully moved by 8/27! I will be answering emails during that time, but expect delays.
If you’ve submitted an inquiry for 2025 and haven’t received a reply yet, I promise it’s coming. We had a bit of a backlog and I’m working my way through them. I appreciate everyone’s patience! ❤️

Congrats to our sweet baby angel girl @katie_zika! Always the best days when I get to work with my soul mate and work wife @deylahussphoto. @jess.soulbeauty nailed the hair as always!

That’s right! Our 2025 books open TOMORROW! If you’ve sent an inquiry in the last week or so, you should have received a message letting you know that you’ve been waitlisted. We will respond to all inquiries in the order they were received, as quickly as possible. There is a little bit of a waitlist built up, so patience is appreciated!
Love you all! ❤️

Announcements about 2025 coming on 8/1! Stay tuned…
Uhhhh I had a very humbling moment today realizing that I’ve been sleeping on @makeupforever wherever walnut my ENTIRE CAREER. Better late than never I guess?
I just don’t know how to dress for 95 degree weather. I will suffer for the lewk.
I’m officially a Depop devotee. These jeans are my new favorite thing and they’re Lee. Like the Lee jeans we wore in the 80s. Who knew?
Always so exciting to see my lil words in print! Thank you @chelsea_irondiamond and @oregonweddingday for including me! ❤️
I worked a crazy long day and managed to get to the party this evening in one piece (barely) 😂. Congrats to all the winners and thanks @oregonweddingday for always hosting a great event!

If your looking for a good volumizing spray I just found one that goes CRAZY. I’m not personally worried about frizz, so I just let it go wild, but a little olaplex oil on the surface did tame it down. Big hair all day everyday.
Let this be your sign to pull out that bright orange lipstick and let the hair…hair.
This is MAC lady danger with NYX nude truffle liner to ground it a little bit (just to slightly over line). The hair is compliments of the humidity and I’ve chosen not to fight it.

Is there really such a thing as too many floral prints in one out? I submit that there is not 🌸
The new issue of @oregonweddingday is out!!!

Always a magical time shooting Tessa Kim’s look books with our dream team.
Sunny yellow for a gloomy Oregon day ☀️
lil “office” day with the work wives @deylahussphoto and @heyoliviarenee. I’m not sure how we all managed to get everything done that we needed to while simultaneously being idiots and chatting the whole time, but it worked 😂
