Reston Town Center – Stylish Heath

Snowball fights, adding a bit of spirit to the hot chocolate and ugly sweater contest. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas and lately the temps in the mid-Atlantic feel like the North Pole with wind chill factors in the teens!!!

Though time ticks off the hours, my never-ending to-do list continues to grow, but I have created a schedule that allows me to relax early in the day so, that I too may enjoy the festivities! The countdown continues and remember throughout it all to stay stylish!!!!

What is it about Christmas in New York that transports one to wondrous time and place, akin to being in the North Pole mixed with a bit of Neverland? Everything sparkles and appears to have magical glow. Each meticulously decorated store becomes more inviting to enter than the next.

But, whether you are in a metropolis such as New York for the weekend like my dear friend Quy or a planned city like Reston, just being out and seeing people laden with packages, ice skating on rinks or viewing trees with twinkling lights pulls one into the allure of the season.
