Laura Serino

After a summer on North Haven island, she and her boyfriend, a Maine native, settled in Portland, Maine. Serino is a former magazine editor who has been published in national and regional publications. When she isn't blogging, she spends her time antiquing, scouring thrift shops, exploring new places in Maine and cozying up to her cat Jasper. She recently completed her first book, "Twentysomething Girl, 1001 Quick Tips and Tricks to Make Your Life Easier." Reach her at info@forefrontfashion.com Follow her: @ForeFrontFash
Memories of a warmer March
I decided to do a little digging into the Fore Front archives to see if its always been this cold in March or if memory serves me right and it’s definitely the worst March in recent history. To the streets!
In March 2011, this Akari stylist was hatless, mittenless and there’s no parka in sight. Just a cute skirt, boots and a lightweight jacket. Interesting…
Also in 2011, this gentleman was in just a sweater and eating a slice of pizza OUTSIDE IN THE SUN! Now I’m starting to get angry.
And what’s this Ferry Beach spotting from March 2012? A barefoot walk on the beach? With pant legs rolled up? AND NO SNOW IN SIGHT?! It appears we are being punished this year, folks! Let’s just hope this all pays off for one long, hot summer ahead!
