Last week’s trip to Vermont was just what the doctor ordered. I feel so much more calm this week, energized and raring to go. It was also such a special time because it was the first time since maternity leave where I got to spend such a long period of time with Emerson. I love…

One thing with having a blog for this long is that some of my “classic” fashion advice stops being classic.
