New England is defrosting and we need some exciting places to go. As much as I love winter, by the time March hits I am so DONE with the cold weather. Even though we still have to deal with mud season, rain, and irregular temperatures, it’s a sure sign that we are on our way to flowers and warmer weather.  Some of my very favorite[...]

What To Wear On A Road Trip

There’s so much to love about road trips, especially through New England! I love being able to explore the world by car, especially in different seasons. Some of my most treasured memories were made on road trips like this fall foliage trip. Road trips can also mean spending a lot of time sitting inside your vehicle. But you don’t[...]

In addition to its gorgeous scenery, Portland is known for fishing, agriculture and a lively downtown scene. The city also has a lot to offe[...]

How to Revive Your Hair Back to Health

My Hair Journey I’m just going to come right out and say it, my hair is a personality trait. I’ve had thick, wavy hair since I was a kid and it is probably the physical feature of mine that I’ve been complimented on the most. I used to hate having big hair as a kid, especially during the straight hair trend of the early 2000s, a[...]

How to Quit Your 9-5 to Work for Yourself

I want to start out by saying there is nothing wrong with working a 9-5 or a traditional corporate job. In fact, I LOVED my corporate job and have many fond memories of the company I worked for. A corporate job provides stability, insurance, a 401k, raises, the ability to expense things, etc. I am all for climbing the corporate ladder. T[...]

Stepping into my “it’s almost spring” era. 🌷✨  Moving to a coastal town at the tail end of fall was an interesting time because it was freezing within a week of being here. Meaning, we have yet to experience a true summer on the coast. Prepare to be sick of me because I don’t think I’ll ever shut up about living in such a beautiful place.  Home is where the ocean is.🌊  #plymouthma #southshorema #coastalliving

If you’re interested in transforming your smile, I can’t recommend @plymouth_orthodontics enough. From day one, every visit has felt comfortable, effortless, and honestly fun. The team genuinely listens to your concerns, explains every step, and brings such a high level of expertise to the process. And yes, it’s completely painless.  Of course, I wanted a more aesthetic smile. But Invisalign isn’t just cosmetic. It’s about long-term dental health, proper alignment, improving your bite, preventing uneven wear, reducing strain on your jaw, and helping you avoid bigger (and more expensive) issues down the road.  And the technology is SO advanced. You get custom aligners made specifically for your teeth, fewer in-office visits, the ability to remove them to eat and brush, and tools to track your progress at home. I’m not going to lie…I fully geek out over this stuff and love that we have amazing options like this available to us.  If you’ve been putting it off, don’t! Future you will be very happy you started now.  Use my name when booking your consultation at Plymouth Orthodontics and you’ll get $250 off your treatment.  You’re welcome. 😌🦷✨  #plymouthma #southshoremass #southshorema

New England destinations worth visiting in the Spring. 🌷  After a record breaking blizzard in Massachusetts, we all need a little to look forward to. Here’s some of my favorite places:  📍Rockport, MA - THE quintessential New England coastal town. This is the number one place I tell people to go when they are visiting Boston and still want to see the coast. The shops, art scene and restaurants are phenomenal. We love staying at @addisonchoate.  📍Burlington, VT - The foodie town that everyone needs to visit at least once. Love the local cuisine, breweries, downtown energy and outdoor scene. We love staying at @essexresortspa.  📍Newport, RI - A stunning beach town to visit before the crowds hit. Love Newport for its mansions, outdoor hikes and events. The Oyster and Chowder Festival is a must! We love staying at @hotelvikingnewport.  📍North Conway, New Hampshire - My favorite area in New Hampshire with so many beautiful surrounding towns, parks and outdoor adventures. We love staying at @omnimountwashington.  📍Cape Cod, MA - Another gem in the spring since the crowds haven’t quite hit, yet there’s still so much to do between the historic landmarks, water activities, and outdoor dining. We love staying at @pelhamhospitality.  Who’s ready for spring travel?🌷  #newengland #newenglandliving #newenglandtravel
