By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, KennettTimes.com
It has been a while since I have written a snarky article….and, I am in a “mood”…SO, here it goes:
THERE IS NO GOOD REASON FOR A HOLIDAY SWEATER/T-SHIRT/MATCHING BEDAZZLED SWEATPANT.

‘Nailing’ the right look with polish
Dos and donts for happy, classy nails
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, KennettTimes.com
I have written about my obsessive behavior many times before. And, every time I shed light on the intensity of my compulsions, I understand that it reveals a little bit more of my craziness. HOWEVER, it just goes to show the level of dedication to this column.

As an investigative fashion reporter for the Kennett Times, I put myself in harm’s way to cover the biggest story to hit the East Coast in YEARS.
