Susie is our hive elder, sliding into those grandma years at the ripe age of “don’t rush me.” We keep suggesting retirement, but apparently she hasn’t finished shopping—or supervising the rest of us. A mother of three sons and one daughter, with grandbabies who regularly steal her attention, she keeps a busy schedule. Getting a spot on it? That’s another matter.

When something catches her eye, Susie pays close attention to the details that matter, especially in clothing and skin care. She loves silver jewelry and Southwestern-inspired designs, bringing her favorite finds to Fashion Honey’s with a little sparkle and plenty of personality. Her shopping habit became a partnership with the Queen Bee—because if she’s going to browse anyway, we might as well put those picks to work.

Our resident Chaos Queen can get a little scattered, and pinning her down occasionally feels like scheduling an appointment with the office sloth. She’ll get there… on Susie time. But her love for the Queen Bee always brings her back into formation. Another hand in the hive, a few distractions along the way, and absolutely no intention of letting anyone hurry her—Susie keeps us buzzing, even when she’s moving at her own leisurely pace.

Meet Stacy Honey, Her Royal Highness of Fashion Honey’s—self-appointed, naturally. She brings a quick wit, a generous helping of sarcasm, and very little patience for the ordinary. Her crown may be imaginary, but her dedication to this hive is the real thing.

Behind the playful sass is a detail-oriented curator who cares deeply about the little things: thoughtful finds, clear information, and a shopping experience that feels warm, welcoming, and personal. Stacy loves colorful boho style, unexpected treasures, and pieces with enough personality to start a conversation. She takes choosing them seriously—even when she refuses to take herself too seriously.

Her goal is to make Fashion Honey’s feel like shopping with a friend who notices the details, tells it like it is, and wants you to leave with something you truly love. A little sweetness, a little side-eye, and plenty of heart: that’s the Queen Bee’s royal standard.

A lifelong Florida girl, Melanie has an eye for cute finds, a soft spot for bathing suits and athletic wear, and a remarkable ability to spot spending that nobody remembers approving. As the hive’s bookkeeper and the Queen Bee’s right-hand honeybee, she keeps the numbers in line—even when the rest of us would prefer to call it “creative accounting.” If you spot a discount, there’s a good chance Melanie hasn’t approved it. Grab it before she checks the books.

She loves traveling with family, although keeping everyone organized and within budget can make a vacation feel suspiciously like work. At home, five beloved pups keep her busy, slightly crazy, and apparently outnumbered. She loves the heck out of them, but stepping out of line earns a reminder that this sweet bee does have a sting. The same applies to anyone messing with her books. People pleaser? Absolutely. Financial pushover? Try it and report back.

Melanie is highly motivated most of the time, with the occasional creative session reaching a slightly more elevated level of inspiration. Some ideas need a spreadsheet; others need a minute to land. Through it all, she brings attention to detail, plenty of personality, and a shopper’s eye for style, quality, and affordability. Her picks look good, feel good, and make sense for your budget—because someone around this hive has to remember we’re running a business.

Josh brings rugged style, coastal polish, and an apparent allergy to sitting still to Fashion Honey’s hive. A husband, father, craftsman, and boating enthusiast, he’s always finding another project that needs doing. Unless he’s gaming. Then, suddenly, sitting down for several hours is perfectly reasonable.

With a vast knowledge of electronics and networks, Josh is your man for getting things sorted around the house or shop—provided you can extract him from whatever mission he’s currently declaring essential. His rather cushy daytime job leaves a little room for those other projects, so naturally we keep a list handy. Wouldn’t want those talents going to waste.

You’ll also catch him moderating our livestreams, where his patience for rude behavior is considerably shorter than his gaming sessions. Come for the finds, stay for the fun, and keep it polite. If you’re stirring up chat chaos while waiting for a Givey, Josh knows exactly where the exit button is—and he’s happy to introduce you.

His picks favor clean lines, dependable basics, and understated details: practical enough to get the job done, polished enough to look like he planned the outfit. Whether he’s fixing, fishing, gaming, or keeping the hive’s chat in line, Josh brings useful skills, sharp style, and absolutely no complimentary tolerance for BS.

Natalee is a rambunctious, outgoing, outspoken little honeybee with plenty of personality—and absolutely no shortage of opinions. She’s already taught the hive more about squishies than we ever expected to learn. She remembers their names, their differences, and even their prices. Yes, the prices. Apparently, we have a tiny inventory department, and she would like everyone to stop getting things wrong.

With a memory like an elephant when squishies are involved, Natalee takes her Squishy Master duties seriously. Have a question? She probably knows the answer—and may offer a few extra facts you didn’t realize you needed. She gets hands-on with our finds, keeps her squishies clean, and brings enough enthusiasm to make the grown-ups wonder who’s actually training whom.

Her interests are growing into nails, skin care, hair care, jewelry, and plenty of cute boho clothing. This little honeybee is discovering her own style while keeping the rest of us informed, entertained, and occasionally corrected. Always learning and always sharing, Natalee chooses her picks with confidence and a sharp eye for fun. You can trust her recommendations. Just double-check the price before arguing—she certainly will.

Little Miss LuLu brings a sweet smile, a spunky spirit, and a determination that doesn’t come with an off switch to Fashion Honey’s hive. When this little honeybee sets her mind on something, she puts the pressure on like no other—and we don’t just mean the squishies. Giving up isn’t her style. The rest of us may need a break, but apparently the Little Professor hasn’t dismissed class yet.

With years of hands-on squishy experience, LuLu knows what makes a good squeeze and loves sharing what makes each find special. She’s taught the grown-ups a thing or two, usually while they were still trying to remember the name. She also enjoys keeping things organized like her mom. Someone has to maintain standards around here, and LuLu seems perfectly willing to supervise.

Now she’s branching into jewelry, nails, hair care, skin care, and a little makeup—just a touch, because this busy bee already has plenty on her schedule. Her picks bring together playful charm, thoughtful choices, and a little sparkle. Loving, persistent, and full of personality, LuLu is sure to squeeze some happiness into your day. And if you haven’t found your favorite yet, don’t worry. She’s probably still making her case.

Chloe brings polished style, professionalism, and just a little raised-eyebrow energy to Fashion Honey’s hive. As a mama of four, her spare time is precious—assuming everyone remembers what “spare time” means. Between family life and working toward her goals, this busy bee makes every moment count. We’re hoping her hive is finished expanding for now… mostly because the seating arrangements are getting complicated.

One goal keeping her wings moving is a new vehicle with enough room for the whole crew. What kind? That’s Chloe’s decision. The Queen Bee would simply like to point out how lovely a Dodge emblem would look in the driveway—an entirely unsolicited opinion, offered with absolutely no intention of keeping it to herself. Chloe handles the saving; we apparently handle the commentary.

Her love of fashion gives her a way to connect with others, sharing favorite finds with an especially sharp eye for business wear. Her picks help you look confident and polished, even when your schedule has other plans. A little chic, plenty of charm, and outfits that suggest you’ve got everything handled. Whether you actually do is between you, your calendar, and whoever just asked for another snack.

Smart, spunky, and never afraid to tell it like it is, Reign brings fresh style and a little royal sass to Fashion Honey’s hive. She has an eye for fashionable finds for younger and older shoppers alike, adding her own flair to every pick. Her sarcasm? Let’s just say she was taught well—and occasionally reminds us a little too well.

Behind that wit is a caring young woman with patience like no other. Reign loves working with people with disabilities and seniors, offering kindness, understanding, and a steady presence. Her Padre is her rock as she builds her future and grows into a Queen Bee of her own. She already has the heart and patience for the job; tolerating the hive’s nonsense is excellent practice.

Off duty, she loves her Mini Cooper and proudly displays its rubber duck collection—small car, big personality, loyal feathered entourage. Anything piggy earns her attention, and a cute squishy can still win this royal over without much negotiation.

Reign’s picks combine trendy style, playful charm, and a thoughtful touch. A Queen Bee in the making, she’s keeping us fashionable while finding her own way—with a well-timed comeback whenever we get too comfortable.

Nathan brings playful personality, a growing list of talents, and some very selective enthusiasm for chores to Fashion Honey’s hive. He enjoys sports, but we suspect fishing and video games have a slight lead in the rankings. Ask him to help halfway through a game and you may discover that “one more minute” is a surprisingly flexible unit of time.

This growing young man lends some muscle when the hive needs heavy lifting, and we’re fairly certain he’ll outgrow his father before anyone’s ready to admit it. He recently joined his school band and chose the baritone—a fantastic instrument, and conveniently one he can help carry himself. Between casting lines, leveling up, and learning those big brass notes, Nathan keeps busy. Homework? Meh. Apparently every adventure has a less exciting side quest.

Of course, there’s always room for a good squishy. His love of adorable characters, fun collectibles, and colorful finds gives his picks plenty of imagination, while his eye for comfortable clothing keeps him ready for whatever the day brings. Sports, fishing, gaming, or lending a hand around the shop—Nathan’s favorites are adventurous, easygoing, and unmistakably his own. Just give him a little warning before interrupting the game. The hive appreciates his help; his teammates would appreciate an explanation.

An almost-teen with a curious mind, an adventurous spirit, and some impressively big fish stories, Major keeps Fashion Honey’s hive entertained. Dinosaurs once ruled his world—until fishing took over practically overnight. Why study prehistoric predators when you could reel in something with teeth? Don’t question his ability to land the big one, or even a shark. He’s probably already preparing his rebuttal.

Whether he’s chasing ocean catches, heading out on the boat, or riding his dirt bike, Major is happiest with sunshine and room to roam. His stories are already something special; we can only imagine the extended editions when he’s grown. A quick learner with a natural knack for electronics, computers, and gaming, he switches from fishing lines to loading screens without missing a beat.

His picks include comfortable summer athletic wear, cool accessories, and, of course, squishies. When it’s time to dress up, this handsome young drone knows how to bring the charm. A mama’s boy with plenty of personality, Major is going places—and any hive princess who someday catches his attention will be lucky. Hopefully, she likes fishing stories. There may be a few.

Affectionately known as “Old Bit,” Rudy brings grumpy-old-man charm, hard-earned wisdom, and sarcasm that occasionally comes with its own volume control—apparently, he hasn’t found it yet. He may seem a little sour, but beneath all that sass is one of the sweetest hearts on the planet. He’s always laughing with you—not at you… or is he? Lol. If “Smartasserism” were a talent, Rudy would have it mastered, framed, and ready to explain why everyone else is doing it wrong.

A hardworking family man, Rudy helps keep the hive steady through big decisions, little decisions, and everything in between. When the days get hectic, he knows how to settle things down—usually with sound advice and a smart remark nobody ordered. When he’s ready to unwind, he enjoys the freedom of riding his motorcycle or heading to the range to fire off a few rounds. His curated picks bring you some of our best adult humor, sarcastic finds, and everyday favorites with plenty of personality. Expect a little eye-rolling, a lot of laughter, and a soft heart he’ll probably deny having. Don’t worry, Old Bit. Your secret’s safe with the entire website.

With a thick Southern drawl, a big heart, and diesel practically running through his veins, Bubba is Fashion Honey’s go-to mechanic for anything in the shop that “just ain’t right.” He followed in his daddy’s footsteps and worked hard for his success, putting family and friends first. His promises are ambitious; his deadlines are more of a suggestion. He’ll get you sorted—just remember that “I got you” is reassurance, not a delivery date.

Bubba loves drag racing, boat racing, and anything else that goes fast enough to make good judgment optional. Hunting, fishing, boating, and cruising in his side-by-side keep him busy, while the occasional Highland cow exposes the softie beneath all that horsepower. He knows how to have a good time and can put a few beers down the hatch with the efficiency we’d occasionally appreciate on a repair job.

His picks bring dependable apparel and practical finds to the working man—comfortable enough for an honest day’s work and presentable enough for whatever follows. Recent tropical travels have us wondering whether he’s returning to the hive or extending his “research.” Either way, Bubba delivers Southern charm, useful finds, and big promises. Estimated arrival? Bless your heart.

Gary, Gary, Gary… where do we even start? Fashion Honey’s resident black sheep is loved, hated, and blamed for practically everything—and he’s remarkably unbothered. Mostly because he doesn’t exist. Hive legend says our Queen Bee’s Hive King Drone once let his imagination buzz a little too loudly, conjuring up a suspiciously charming rival named Gary. The royal rumor grew wings, and our imaginary troublemaker never quite flew away. No secret romance—just a tall hive tale with an unnecessarily long shelf life.

These days, “Where the f*** is Gary?” is practically a royal proclamation. He never answers, explains himself, or accepts responsibility. Being fictional comes with excellent benefits. If our Queen Bee had a Gary, he’d have to be perfect—but with perfection still under royal review, we’ve settled for rugged charm, horsepower, boat days, and a smirk that suggests he knows exactly what he did.

In Gary’s imaginary kingdom, he’s a hardworking father of two with five pups, a love of cars and boats, and a soft spot for durable clothing, comfortable shoes, and range-day fun. His picks pack personality and a punch—even the squishies face the occasional dramatic testing session. Handsome enough to ruffle a drone’s wings, absent enough to avoid chores: Gary has this imaginary-man business figured out.

Macy is one of the happiest dogs you’ll ever meet, bringing a sunny smile, a golden heart, and plenty of tail-wagging joy to Fashion Honey’s hive. She loves hanging with her hive mates and takes her role as the shop’s delivery alarm very seriously. Inventory arriving? Macy announces it. USPS, UPS, or FedEx collecting the day’s shipments? Another announcement—because apparently nobody can hear a truck without her assistance.

She lets her hive mates handle the unboxing, patiently waiting for the empty boxes to become available for her own very enthusiastic “disposal service.” After a hard day’s work, she expects treats—earned, naturally, without begging. This sweet girl knows how to stay put when asked, though occasionally she declares an unscheduled play break. Chasing sticks and playing fetch are favorite pastimes, and when something drops in the shop, Macy is happy to help pick it up. Part delivery announcer, part cleanup crew, and full-time sweetheart, she keeps the hive smiling—and believes every good shift deserves a snack.

Pookie is Fashion Honey’s very cool cat with a major personality—and absolutely no respect for the Queen Bee’s personal space. This handsome gray striped tabby sports white socks, a little white on his face, and cream-colored accents around his eyes. His favorite spot? Under the blankets, tucked beneath the Queen Bee’s knees. No room? He’ll push and push until the royal accommodations meet his standards. He even rearranges the covers according to his own mysterious temperature rules. Sleeping anywhere besides the Queen Bee’s bed? Clearly beneath his rank.

When product deliveries arrive, Pookie reports for duty immediately. Every box needs exploring, every toy needs investigating, and occasionally a squishy gets an unsolicited lick—earning our Toy-Taster Tabby a gentle reminder that quality control has boundaries! Sometimes his enthusiasm requires a little royal reprimand, but this lovable troublemaker keeps the hive laughing. Big personality, soft paws, persistent snuggles, and plenty of opinions: Pookie takes his duties seriously, even when nobody actually assigned them.

Arthur is Fashion Honey’s delightfully crazy squirrel who lives right outside the Queen Bee’s front door—and apparently thinks he’s on the payroll. This mischievous little hive mate frequents the nut bar for his daily treats and “supervises” inventory deliveries as the Queen Bee carries packages up the steps. If a box drops, Arthur will certainly let us know. Concern for the inventory? Possibly. Suspicion that we’ve just spilled his treats? Much more likely.

With a nose for snacks and a talent for turning an ordinary delivery into entertainment, Arthur keeps the hive’s doorstep lively. His priorities are simple: inspect the arrivals, collect his nuts, and squeeze in a little chaos before the next shift. Tiny paws, big personality, and questionable credentials—but around here, we’d be nuts without him.
