Feeling Festive…

Without fail, the debate over when it’s acceptable to decorate for the holidays rages on into the days leading up to Thanksgiving (and it has been since the day after Halloween!)

Local Loves: The Venetian

Earlier this week, I wrote about stopping by the “Snowport” Holiday Pop-Up in Boston’s Seaport District over the weekend, but that wasn’t the only seasonal destination on my to-do and must-visit list while I was in the area.

As the temperatures continue to drop and the last of the leaves fall off of the trees here in New England, I wanted to take some time, pre-holiday season, to share the new additions that were rotated into my every day/night skincare and hair care regimen this past Autumn. Featuring products that were designed to […]

Leftover Candy and Live Music…

Although Maryland had been somewhat crisp during my recent stay, nothing could have prepared me for just how cold (and a little snowy!) New England had suddenly become during my brief absence. Stepping off of the plane and immediately seeing both my breath and frost on my windshield when I went to pick up my […]
