Before we head into another snowy weekend here in New England, and before I start getting into all things love and romance just in time for Valentine’s Day next week – I wanted to take the time to talk about my current skin and hair care obsessions from this season. I’ve been getting a lot […]
Having to refrain from posting about so many wonderful gifts I’d received and fun purchases I’d made over the course of last year’s holiday season and my birthday earlier this month was nothing short of torture.
