It started as a project. Now it’s a passion.

We are Lauren and Varatip (aka “V”), long-time friends turned business partners. As working moms, we would share stories of feeling like there just wasn’t enough time in the day. On top of demanding jobs in Corporate America, we faced even more demanding clients as home - husbands and their infamous crumb snatchers (aka our kids).

We were aspiring to be TOP wife, Top chef, TOP toy wrangler, TOP appointment keeper, TOP everything, all while trying to keep our houses together! Over the years we worked together to find ways to get our spaces in order and we LOVED the way it made us feel. Soon family and friends would ask for help with a drawer here and a pantry there. So, project after project, we helped people declutter and get their lives in order.

The key? Functional Organization. That means organizing a space that’s not only beautiful and “Pinterest-perfect”, but that can actually help make life easier!

Now, it’s our mission to share that feeling of being on TOP of it all through thoughtful organization services that people can maintain in real life.

Lauren Hill,

Co-founder

I live in Mansfield, Texas, with my husband, Tamarick (aka “Tea”) and our two kids Ryann and Parker. I was a Chemistry major when I entered college and then decided I didn’t want to wear a lab coat to work - true story. So, I changed to business, which was probably for the best. 

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME:

1. I am a proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. – pinkies up from Texas A&M University - Howdy Ags!

2. I am TERRIFIED of ANY type of bug, yes, even flies. I run or scream or a little of both.  

3. Your girl loves country music. Blame my dad for that one.

4. I’m not too fond of color. Give me all black, all day, every day.  My friends made me wear this salmon pink suit lol.

5. I’m an only child. Not hard to guess that one, huh?  

6. A good Macaroon always brightens my day. 

7. Watching Sex and the City is my favorite pastime.

8. I’m addicted to shoes - not regular ones, fancy ones.

I live in Mansfield, Texas, with my husband, Charles (aka “CJ”) and our two kids Landon and Layla. I was a mass communications major and wanted to be a TV anchor until my dad burst my dream bubble when he asked me how many Asians were on local TV (sad, but true). So I switched to a more riveting major, accounting.  

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME:

1. My favorite color is blue, but my closet is 90% black.

2. I love all things pop culture, and all my girlfriends give me grief about my taste in music (they legit hate my playlists). 

3. Google is my friend. I constantly google anything and everything. Hey, knowledge is power! 

4. I love all things British. The Royal Family, afternoon tea, and period pieces are my jam! Who gives their girlfriends a lesson in the British peerage system before watching Bridgerton? Me!!!  

5. I’m a hardcore baseball mom. I’m basically Landon’s agent.  

6. I’m also an allergy mom. Layla is highly allergic to wheat and nuts. Her smile is my everything, and changing our eating habits to make her world safer is well worth it!  

7. I like to watch movies on my phone while in the shower. I mean, it’s my only real “me” time of the day, and my iPhone is water-resistant!  

8. Family means everything to me. I love my huge melting pot, “United Nations” extended fam!
