The Longleaf Hotel is quite the mid century modern gem Raleigh needed. We have often commented on: 1. Raleigh needs boutique hotels in downtown. 2. we always come into Raleigh from the North and the broken down Days Inn was a sad way to arrive in downtown Raleigh. Now, we are so excited to be greeted by the newly renovated hotel, The Longleaf Hotel...welcoming us warmly from the northern gateway as we make our way from North Raleigh to downtown. The hotel is so ideally located with easy walks to many of Raleigh's great restaurants, shops and museums. Originally a travelodge in the 1960's man ..read more

EAT WELL. MOVE DAILY. HYDRATE OFTEN. SLEEP LOTS. LOVE YOUR BODY. REPEAT for life! Last week right there in front of me I literally saw the best life advice on a paper napkin from Kale Me Crazy!

Cameron Village: AILLEA Beauty Boutique - Clean Your Routine!

by
5y ago
This Fall I've made the conscious decision to start the process of cleaning (and "greening up") my make up and skin/hair routine. Over the 10+ years I've developed a sensitivity (basically a complete intolerance) to many preservative/formaldehyde ingredients commonly used in most skin and hair products these days. Over the years I have had to carefully seek out products that don't include specific ingredients which lead to eczema and skin irritations. Last week I got a wonderful facial at Aillea. Aillea, a clean beauty boutique, is celebrating just over a year of being in Cameron Village ..read more
