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.
The coming week(s) ahead are going to be busy ones for sure. In-between working my full time job, I’m also going to be catching some live music this week, attending Boston Calling on behalf of indie617 and then picking up a friend who is flying in from Italy for what I’m hoping will be a […]
With Memorial Day Weekend (the unofficial beginning of Summer!) coming up and my schedule still just as busy as ever with concerts, festivals, dinners and those late-Spring-cookouts with friends and family- I’ve been looking for quick and easy recipes to prepare that won’t take up too much of my in-between time but will still be […]

I have so many adventures planned over the weekend ahead- and I want to look my best for […]
Although I have never denied that I like to shop- it is worth clarifying that I like to shop smart. I keep an attentive eye out for great deals, sales and bargains- especially with brands that can be on the pricier side 90% of the time. Whether it be for clothing, shoes, appliances, hotel stays […]
It’s about that time of the season where I pull back the door on my bathroom medicine cabinet and talk about the newest additions in my skincare/hair care regimen that I’ve been enjoying and/or obtaining incredible results with over the past couple of months.
