As much as I hate the end of summer, there are a few things I love about fall: slipping on that comfy pair of jeans you haven’t worn in months; making stew and enjoying it with a nice glass of Cab; and finding the perfectly relaxed and chunky fall sweater. This fall, this is soon to become one of my favorites: a chunky, slouchy knit braided sweater with a funnel neck and oversized long sleeves. Only $75 on mango.com.
Former Art Director for Home Magazine, Heather Leahy Zachariah, left her career in publishing after baby number number one. She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
