@kristenfits

If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling through social media feeling like you need to move to a coastal city to have a “vibrant” life, Kristen Falatea is here to prove you wrong.

Operating under the handle @kristenfits, Kristen has become the unofficial curator of “girl’s night” in Iowa’s capital. With over 1.3 million likes and a dedicated following, she has mastered the art of “romanticizing life in Des Moines,” showing her audience that magic isn’t found in a zip code—it’s found in how you live your daily life.

The Founder of the DSM Girls Club

Kristen isn’t just sharing her life; she’s building a community. As the founder of the DSM Girls Club , she has created a space where local women can connect, find things to do, and feel a sense of belonging in the city. Her content acts as a digital invitation to explore Des Moines, whether you’ve lived here forever or just moved in.

Her energy shines through in her curated guides, making her the go-to source for:

• The “Where-To” Guides: From the best hidden-gem coffee shops to the perfect date-night spots.
• Lifestyle & “Fits”: As her handle suggests, Kristen has an eye for style, blending chic outfits with the backdrop of the city’s most aesthetic locations.
• Daily Romanticization: She turns the mundane—a morning walk, a grocery run, or a rainy afternoon—into something beautiful and intentional.

Why Kristen’s Voice Matters

In a world that often overlooks the Midwest, Kristen celebrates it. She highlights the local businesses, parks, and events that make Des Moines special. Her content isn’t about being “perfect”; it’s about being present.

She reminds her followers that you don’t need to wait for a vacation to enjoy your life. By focusing on the “small wins” and the beauty of her immediate surroundings, she’s inspired thousands of Iowans to fall back in love with their own backyards.

The Aesthetic and the Heart

While her feed is undeniably beautiful, it’s Kristen’s genuine love for her community that keeps people coming back. She is a cheerleader for Des Moines, a resource for local women, and a reminder that there is always something worth doing if you know where to look.
