I’m happy to report that we are in peak foliage here in Western Massachusetts. While there’s still some small patches of greenery left over from the Summer, the trees are bursting with reds, yellows, golds and oranges- and it’s making my early morning commute into my office all the more breathtaking and beautiful as I […]
It was entirely too perfect for the first weekend of October to be cloudy (with occasional bursts of sunshine) and crisp- with cool breezes that didn’t feel like you were being chilled to the bone when they hit you, but were just strong enough to give the leaves that were ready to fall off the […]

Well, if you’re like me- you keep it cute and casual with a cold shoulder top and a distressed pair […]
I will fully admit that there are some fashion trends and style resurrections that I just cannot get onboard with.
