Hello, everyone! I haven’t been writing as much the past few weeks due to some personal stuff and I’ve been meaning to pop on and share some thoughts I’ve had the last few weeks. (Side note: the personal stuff is…
Welcoming Summertime
I am usually not a warm-weather fan (as you all know), but this year I am really looking to the summertime. I haven’t posted in a while because of how insane things have been around here, but I plan on…
The Phantom of the Opera
For Christmas this year, my husband bought me tickets to see The Phantom of the Opera before it leaves Broadway this coming April. The Phantom of the Opera was the first Broadway show I saw live, and it was just…
Valentine’s Day Gift Guide
I cannot believe that the “holiday season” is officially over. I put “holiday season” in quotes because I am referring to the time between Halloween and New Year’s when the days are busy and blurred together and everyone is putting…

Back-to-School Style with L’Amour
