I’m not usually one to focus on trends, but every so often something shows up again and again in the collections I see. This spring, it’s all about light, airy textures that feel easy and wearable, from sweaters to shoes. It’s a look that adds interest without trying too hard, and one that fits seamlessly into a real wardrobe.

Artificial intelligence aims to please, and I understand the temptation to use it in place of your lawyer, given the expense of legal advice. However, it may be hurting you more than helping you. Here is a guide on when and how to effectively use AI in your divorce matter.

Oddly, one of the brands we’re most often asked to bring back is also one of the most inexpensive lines we’ve ever carried: TKEES.

Ironically, the shoe that made me realize we needed to bring them back—the Julia—is more than that at $160, but it’s worth the price.

There’s something about spring in Alexandria that makes everyone collectively decide, “This is the week I become a new person.” The windows open, the walks get longer, and suddenly we’re all convinced we can go from winter hibernation to weekend warrior overnight. Your body has other plans.

For a long time, I believed strength peaked in your 30s and slowly faded after that. I thought getting older meant getting smaller, “softer” (doughy), and worse yet, weaker. I’m so glad to say: I was wrong. I am in my late-50s and I am stronger physically, mentally, and emotionally than I’ve ever been. Not because I chased youth, but because I finally worked with my body instead of against it. 

Set along the charming, sidewalk-lined streets of Rosemont, is a beautifully expanded brick colonial offering 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 3,314 finished square feet across four levels seamlessly blending timeless architecture with thoughtful modern updates and exceptional indoor-outdoor living.
