Happy April! It’s the month where it starts to feels a bit more like spring is a possibility, we all know March in New England is still very much winter. I’m getting excited about spring/summer fashion, dresses (omg what a concept), and self-tanner, haha. We have no grand plans for the weekend but I am pretty excited about Marin’s Easter “basket” (the L.L. Bean tote with fun stuff inside). Looking forward to time outside and offline. Wishing all of you a great weekend.
