Super Six: Time to spruce up your home
Six items to freshen the look of your home for Spring
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Happy April everyone! I wanted to dedicate this Super Six to sprucing up the house for SPRING. And, by sprucing I mean buying new things…not cleaning (because there’s nothing attractive about scrubbing screens or wiping down baseboards. Yawn.) Just like the change in season demands a wardrobe overhaul,...
Super Six: Hello, Springtime!
Warm weather means new, fun fashion options
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
It’s SPRINGTIME in the Square! Woo hoo! OK, so we had a dusting of snow the other day, but, this week we’ll have temperatures in the 70’s! I literally cannot wait. I am OVER winter coats and scarves and boots and being freezing cold all the damn time. I crave sunshine and outdoor living and it’s right...
No time to horse around: dressing for the Steeplechase
And yes, it is all about the hat — create one that reflects your sense of style
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Today is Point to Point and next Sunday is the Willowdale Steeplechase! Do you have the perfect dress? Appropriate shoes (my suggestion is a wedge as opposed to a heel…you won’t sink into the ground)? More importantly, do you have a hat? There are so few occasions...
Time to ring in the scents of spring
Embrace some new, fresh fragrances to kick off the new season
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Now that Spring has officially arrived, it is time to transition your closet, pack away the winter boots and switch up your fragrance for warm weather. I know that for some women wearing the same perfume year after year can make it a signature, which is lovely. However, it is nice to make a change...
Spring ahead? Snow way…
Although daffodils like these are just about push up through the soil, Chester County will have to endure one more episode of winter weather, as a storm may dump as much as five inches of snow on parts of the county Friday.
At 6:45 p.m., Friday night, it will officially be spring. Unfortunately, for most of Chester County, it appears we may be digging out of a minor snow storm as winter slaps the area...
Super Six: It’s spring!
A time for new colors and to say goodbye to cold and snow
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
Although the upcoming forecast is calling for temperatures back down into the 40’s, I am officially declaring SPRING! Pack away the corduroy pants, wool sweaters and UGGS (which guarantees at least one more round of snow, right?). Perhaps, if we collectively take a stand against Mother Nature,...
Forget the snow: Spring is coming
Ignore that forecast, Spring starts this week, shop accordingly
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
I refuse to believe that it may snow. RE-FUSE. We are finally seeing grass and my daffodils are poking through the soil! I could cry.
Thankfully, Spring is in the Square whether Mother Nature likes it, or not! There is nothing better than the transition to bright colors and lighter fabrics...
Springing ahead in fashion
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, UnionvilleTimes.com
Even though we’ve had some schizophrenic weather as of late, I have decided that writing about what I’m craving in Spring fashion will help turn things around! The power of positive thinking and everything….
SO, as a child of the 70’s, I am delighted that the “Must Have” of the season is the high waisted, wide legged jean! Not that I...
