Hello from your favorite amateur style photographer! While Dan continues to recover from COVID-19, I thought I’d share some less-than-professional-looking selfies of a new addition to my closet that I picked up during my most recent outing to Plum. Valentine’s Day might be over and in the books, and Spring may not start in another […]
One of the perks of both living and traveling around the Pioneer Valley as extensively as I do is that I am only a quick walking or driving distance from so many wonderful and unique small-owned businesses- including boutiques, restaurants, venues and cafés- and I try to frequent them as much as possible at various […]
Is there anything more comfortable and stress-free to throw on in the colder months than a sweater dress, some fleece-lined leggings and boots?

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.
