Hutchinson was born on July 9, 1977, and grew up in Florida.^[7] She met her future husband, Steve Hutchinson, in the eighth grade when they were only 14 years old.^[8] The two hit it off from the start and even shared a locker together. They became a couple and stayed together throughout high school. Though they went to different colleges, they still maintained a long-distance relationship, eventually getting married on April 20, 2002.^[9]

Social Media and Business

Hutchinson started her influencer career from humble beginnings in 2013, first by amassing followers on Facebook and Instagram. After seeing her follower count grow, she soon had an idea to start a website that would serve as a blog.^[10] Hutchinson funded the website on her own by selling her clothes. “I styled each item on a mannequin, took cute pictures and listed them for sale,” she says in one interview. “Then I wrapped them in beautiful tissue paper with stickers that read, ‘Living With Landyn.’ In a single weekend, I made $3,000. I couldn’t believe it.”^[11]

In 2016, Hutchinson launched her blog Living With Landyn to share decorating, fashion, and clothing tips that she had acquired over the years. She provided her reasons for switching to the blog format, stating: “After years of people asking me where I got my shirt + living room paint color and the recipe to my favorite appetizer,” she wrote, “I decided maybe there were people out there that would read this besides my mom.”^[1]

With an initial successful start, Hutchinson decided to open a storefront on her website in 2019. The launch led to big sales and even more success for her brand.^[11] The store remains a popular outlet for women’s fashion and features a variety of items such as clothes, makeup, jewelry, and shoes. Hutchinson also works with other companies to create collections that consumers can use.^[12]
