this is meg. you should meet her for so many reasons, least of which are that she is an amazing hairstylist and makeup artist, has impeccable style, transforms her home into a crazy christmas grotto every holiday season, and has a delightfully british husband. she is also an amazing friend, the kind that would help [...]
