Angela Lanter is a lifestyle blogger based in Nashville, Tennessee.

Angela Stacy was born and raised in Northeast Ohio and at the age of fifteen, took her first job as a hairstylist and makeup artist working at a small salon giving makeovers for Glamour photos. While in college, she continued to pursue her love of beauty by freelancing for proms, weddings, and other special events. After being pushed to get a “real job,” Angela began a seven-year career in the insurance industry, eventually working her way up to a fraud investigator. Never forgetting her passion, Angela continued to sharpen her beauty skills by watching YouTube tutorials at night for inspiration. In 2011, Angela relocated to Los Angeles, California, to be with her now husband, actor and star of NBC’s show “Timeless”, Matt Lanter.

After many years of watching & learning, it was time to start creating on her own.

In February 2013, Angela launched “Hello Gorgeous”, and her subsequent YouTube channel in October. By December, Angela Lanter was named as an official PopSugar Select Blogger and was featured as the #1 ShopStyle Lay Down Campaign Blogger. Recognizing her passion for Hello Gorgeous, Angela left her career to become a full-time blogger. She has always enjoyed giving makeovers and helping women feel their most beautiful, which inspired her to create Hello Gorgeous. By providing her readers with fashion, beauty & lifestyle tips, she hopes to help each woman feel and look her best inside and out. Angela is the first-ever winner of the PopSugar Select Spotlight Award for 2014.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I launched my blog in February 2013 and my YouTube channel later that same year, in September.

  • Several of my girlfriends suggested I start a blog because of my passion of beauty, fashion, cooking, DIYs, etc. I signed up on Blogger and published a few posts. I didn’t really get into blogging until we moved to New Orleans in July or August. After that, I hit the ground running and never looked back.

  • My hubby came up with Hello Gorgeous! I loved it immediately and it fit exactly what I wanted to do. I now refer to my followers as my Gorgeous Girls.

  • I was a fraud investigator for an insurance company. I loved my job, but decided to quit after I got married so I could travel with Matt for his projects. Through high school and college, I worked as a key holder (basically a night manager) at a tanning salon and also held an office position. Now I’m a full-time blogger and I love every minute of it!

  • I’ve always had a love for beauty. I would sneak into my mom’s makeup as a little girl at any chance I could get. In high school, I began freelancing and doing hair and makeup for Glamour Shots styled shoots at my aunt’s nail salon. After high school, I would freelance here and there doing special event makeup and hair.

  • I never went to cosmetology school as my dad felt like there was no future in it. Instead, I went to nursing school. I didn’t graduate, because I accepted a job in the insurance field and quickly moved up, so a nursing degree no longer made sense for me.

  • I was born and raised in Akron, OH, then lived in Los Angeles, CA for a good while, but now reside in Nashville, Tennessee!

  • June 2013. Best day of my life! 🙂

  • Yes! I have a beautiful baby girl named MacKenlee Faire Lanter (who you can hear all about here), along with a fur baby named Ahsoka, and she’s spoiled rotten.

  • For reference, here are my current (US) sizes: Top: S, Jeans: 26, Dress: 2, Bra: 32C, Shoe: 7 I’m 5’4” and 110 lbs.

  • For photography, we use a Sony a7Rii camera with Sony Zeiss 55mm lens and Canon 5D Mark III with Canon 85mm lens. For videography, each video has the camera used listed in the description box.

  • My hubby, Matt, takes all of my photos and we both shoot my videos.
