Trending strong this fall is the “matchy matchy” look of hue dressing. Once thought of as a fashion NO is now a fashion go with runway looks from Oscar De La Renta, Isaac Mizrahi, Marc Jacobs, Salvatore Ferragamo, Burberry and more… Now I am not saying that you should take this trend literally and get…
I LOVE boots. I would wear them everyday, but right now I’m in the process of losing my post-partum baby weight and trying to get back to a reasonable size (anything in the single digits for me). So skinny jeans, leggings and tights are really not the first thing on my menu… I’d love to…

Yesterday, I got the Simply Smooth Brazilian Keratin Treatment from Peggy Loughlin, Master Hair Designer & Colorist, at Cassandra Salon and Spa in Nashua, NH.
