I will fully admit that there are some fashion trends and style resurrections that I just cannot get onboard with. While the return of chokers and tie-dye everything has been a fun blast-from-the-past I had always been prepared to wear proudly again- things like fanny packs and high-waist “mom jeans” are better left in the […]
It’s been quite a while since I’ve been on a boat- although I’m hoping that will change in the coming weeks ahead when I venture back into Rye and Portsmouth, New Hampshire for a couple of days by the ocean- and I’ve already got a comfortable, breezy and still Summery ensemble put together and ready […]
I think when a lot of people who have never traveled to the Northeast try to imagine Summer along the coast in New England, they picture weekend clambakes, plenty of lobster rolls, historic lighthouses and beautiful bike paths overlooking the shorelines- and they’re not wrong.

That’s exactly what […]

Although Spring has Sprung and we’ve officially made it through Easter- there’s still a chill in the air here in New England. While the days (and nights) aren’t quite warm enough to ditch the outerwear entirely just yet- it’s also not frigid enough to have to bundle up in layers upon layers in order to […]
