By Keesha Boyd Their motto is “like nothing on earth” and I have to say, I now know why. I recently took a short vacation to Vail, CO to celebrate a dear friend and avid Vyne reader’s birthday. If you’ve never taken a winter vacation before, I encourage you to do so. Whether you go with a group of girlfriends (like we did) or that special someone in your life, it’s an experience you won’t soon forget. The icing on [...]
