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.
Every Spring/Summer, around this time as we are approaching the halfway point of the year, I like to set aside a couple of hours to reflect on the past few months that have led me here (so far) and review the goals I had set for myself back at the end of December. It’s a […]
After the absolute whirlwind that was the extended Memorial Day Weekend just a few short days ago, it felt nice to have a more quiet and low-key couple of afternoons off where I could tidy up my apartment, restock some groceries, catch up on e-mails that had been sitting patiently in my inbox, and- most […]
When I was first going into May, I knew it was going to be a busy month. I knew I had a lot of things to get done at my full-time job, had a lot of travel planned and a lot of events to attend- and I was looking forward to (and very excited about) […]

This week is shaping up to be one of the busiest I’ve had in a while, which is almost always the case leading up to a long weekend/vacation. I’m working as normal, attending meetings and appointments before I take off for Boston Calling and then Maine for an extended Memorial Day holiday- but there’s also […]
Boston Calling kicks off next weekend, and while I’ll only be attending one of the three days of the festival this year as opposed to committing to the whole weekend like I normally do (Troy is visiting, so we’ve made some other plans while he’s in town!) I’m still extremely excited to spend a day […]
