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.
Happy (Almost!) New Year, everybody! When trying to think of the right words to properly summarize my 2022 as a whole- two came to mind almost immediately. The first being “abundance.” This year saw an abundance of so many things in my life- be it time with my friends and family, career and creative endeavor […]
I know I say it at the end of every year when I’m putting together my final reflective posts before I take a little break for New Year’s Eve/Day- especially when it comes to this type of post in particular- but narrowing down hundreds (if not thousands) of photos from a year’s worth of travels […]

Well hello there! As I’m sure it is for many people this time of year- things have been pretty crazy here on my end! Between work, holiday gatherings, gift shopping/wrapping and getting ready for Christmas and the New Year- I have been going, going, going!

If you’ve read ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ for any length of time, you probably know by now that I love touring a good ‘ol mansion or historical landmark on gloomy days or during more laid-back weekends- and New England has plenty of them (historical landmarks and gloomy weather, I mean.) It’s a calming and educational experience- […]
