IMG_4218.JPG MLK Day marked seven years of blogging at The Age of Grace. I’m ready to celebrate with a Blog Anniversary Subscriber Giveaway — a first since the email list instituted last year. Many of you know I have worked full-time as a pharmaceutical sales specialist for the last 22 years. However, I started blogging […]
By now, you know I love the challenge of blogger collaborations. The agreed-upon theme always takes me out of my comfort zone and makes me rethink fashion as I see it.
