Hi! I'm Ashley. I'm a legal specialist, a blogger and a radio personality with a makeup and shoe addiction based out of Boston and the Pioneer Valley. These are my (mis)adventures.
Nothing gets you into the holiday spirit in New England quite like an impromptu heavy snowstorm that results in traffic delays and school/business closures! And with us being only just a few days into December, it seemed fitting that we got our first heavy snowfall of the year this week! On Wednesday night after finishing […]
2024 has truly been a year of nostalgic anniversaries – particularly when it comes to music. Earlier this year, I headed to Las Vegas to celebrate The Killers’ 20th anniversary of their debut album, ‘Hot Fuss’, an album from a band that forever changed the trajectory of my life. But there were also the 20th […]
And just like that, we’re officially into December! I took some time this past weekend to rest, recharge, and just kick back with a cup of mint hot chocolate and zone out to some of my favorite holiday movies because these next few weeks I’m going to be going, going, going non-stop all the way […]

Although Thanksgiving isn’t until next week, I’ve been spending a lot of time over these past few days doing some reflection and meditating on my life in 2024 through now – the big changes, accomplishments, ups and downs and, most importantly – the people who have been with me and by my side throughout it […]
