Favorite local shops: Bangled Tiger, The Nest and Nostalgia.
Where to score thrifted and vintage finds: There is a huge difference between thrifting versus vintage shopping. I love thrifting because the hunt gives my neurodivergent brain a dopamine high. I frequent Savers, community thrift shops and church sales. For curated vintage sellers, I love Little City Thrifty and Providence Flea.

Item I wear every day: Rings and earrings. I am the unofficial queen of anxiety so I consider them fashionable fidget accessories.
How to find matchy looks for kids: Bring your child thrifting! Kids grow so fast, so thrifting has been key. I am a sucker for ’60s, ’70s and ’90s retro revival prints. I never want to force anything on June. If it makes her happy, let her wear mismatched socks.
Favorite things to do on a day off: Get up early and meet my friend Jesse for coffee and taking outfit photos. We empower each other, and there’s no competition. My favorite family days involve walking the Providence waterfront.
Fashion inspiration: Instagram and Pinterest. Using it as a style hub for inspiration instead of comparing is key.
Beauty essential: MAC lipliner in REDD; Gucci lipstick in Louisa Red.
Hair salon: In East Providence, @Kaylacolours who owns Haus of Color and all her girls. In Providence, @HairbyAllieLeanne at Pretty Things.
Favorite family-friendly restaurant: The Big Cheese, Marchetti’s and Red Ginger, since my in-laws used to own it. We love Ellie’s, Knead and Seven Stars. For date night, it’s Sarto, Bellini and Oberlin.
Local kid activity: We do play dates, farms and flower farms.
