OOTD: Woolen Minis

There’s not much I love more in terms of Fall fashion than a chunky sweater, some comfortable denim and a stylish pair of boots. The combination is practically my assigned uniform this time of year- but it’s not very practical when the temperatures abruptly reach the mid-70s in New England. When that happens (which isn’t […]

OOTD: The Rainbow Connection

When I was about 7 or 8 years old, I had a two-piece, hot pink and neon yellow-striped terry cloth outfit that became my “go to” in the Summertime for no less than three years in a row before I hit a growth spurt and it no longer fit properly. If you look at any […]
