Hello! Welcome to my blog! My name is Kariette.



Hey, I’m Kariette—writer, creator, new mom, and professional overthinker who still hasn’t picked a niche (and probably never will). I started this blog way back in 2011 on Tumblr as Automatic Purple Weapons—don’t ask, I was young and dramatic. Eventually, it evolved into Purple Weapons on Blogspot, where I wrote about anything and everything: food, fashion, dating, hair, home, PCOS, crafts, and my love for sharing advice—even if no one asked for it.
Now? The blog has grown with me, and its new name, Just Kari On, captures exactly what I’m doing—carrying on through life’s chaos, transitions, and now, the beautifully unpredictable journey of motherhood.
On January 19, 2025, I became a mom to a sweet baby girl, and my world completely shifted (in the best, wildest way). These days, you’ll find more real, raw, and ridiculous stories about mom life—birth stories, postpartum truths, baby wins and mom fails, sprinkled with a bit of humor, heart, and maybe some 5 a.m. existential questions.
But don’t worry—I still love food, DIYs, life hacks, and the occasional overshare about relationships, self-love, and PCOS. This blog is where chaos meets cuddles, and we Just Kari On through it all.
So whether you’re here for mom life, lifestyle inspo, or just because you’re curious—welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
