Local Loves: Hebert’s Candy Mansion

With Halloween approaching, and the need to stock up on candy for myself (and the Trick-Or-Treaters too, I guess? Mostly me, though!) I recently stopped by a famous New England landmark that I don’t think I’ve visited since I was a kid- a candy store that has been going strong since 1946. If you grew […]

Meet Me on the Equinox…

When I say the past few days have been an emotional and mental rollercoaster, it’s not an exaggeration. Between beautiful and relaxing afternoons spent in the picturesque surroundings of Vermont near peak-foliage time and then racing through important tasks at my job that popped up unexpectedly when I’d returned to the confines of my office- […]

OOTD: The Cold Shoulder

What do you wear when you have lakeside plans on a partly cloudy New England afternoon in August but need to find a comfortable middle ground between a super low-key swimsuit and a slightly-more-formal sundress? Well, if you’re like me- you keep it cute and casual with a cold shoulder top and a distressed pair […]

OOTD: Shorelines and Shorts…

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 […]
