I know that the days and the weeks have started to blend into one long, “Groundhog Day”-esque loop as of late- especially for those of us who are presently working or teaching from home and have grown accustomed to the same routine every single day from the confines of our bedrooms, living rooms and/or home […]
This hasn’t exactly been the most normal of Springs- and this past Easter certainly didn’t follow the traditions I’ve grown accustomed to in years’ past. I was unable to be with my family for our annual dinner together, and with current social distancing protocols in place- I spent the day on my own enjoying the […]

For as long as I can remember, wool peacoats have been my default outerwear every Winter. Growing up in Massachusetts, they just seemed to be the most sensible thing to put on- heavy, durable, and able to wear over even the puffiest of sweaters without busting the buttons.
