The Last Wedding of the Season

The Last Wedding of the Season

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while now, you probably remember my blog series of “What to Wear to a Summer Wedding” or my previous posts about the weddings I’ve attended this year (read those here and here). A few weekends ago I had the pleasure of attending the wedding of my boyfriend’s…

One-Year Anniversary Weekend

One-Year Anniversary Weekend

Staycation

Staycation

  It seems like this week is the universal week to go on vacation. Both my boyfriend, boss, and some friends are all in another country or on the beach for vacation, so my topic for this week’s LA Family Magazine column was an obvious choice. You can read the full article at its original…
