Feel-Good Friday: Goals

The fresh start of a new year is the perfect time to make a change. Many have sat down and reflected on their lives, making promises to themselves of how to be better, but this year I am going against the grain and not setting traditional goals. 2013 is going to be a year of simplification, starting with my goals. Instead of setting well intended attempts to exercise, diet, or read more non-fiction, I am adapting a mantra for 2013 of which to live by. The following are two statements which I can be better about and I think if I can apply them to my life everything else will fall into place.


What Are You Wearing New Year's Eve?

I consider myself lucky that my invite to our friend's annual New Year's Eve party included the comment: Feel free to wear pajamas. I love when occasional wardrobe is decided for me and takes the guess work out of what to wear. I plan to don the pajamas Mrs. Claus so lovingly gave to me this Christmas to the party. If your NYE plans don't include bunny slippers, consider one of the following:

LOOK 1-A bow accented blouse(1) paired with brightly colored pants (2) to keep all eyes on you. The bold colors of this ensemble will be just as festive, yet slightly more understated than a sequin dress. Finish the look with neutral flats(5) and accessories that sparkle like the times square ball (2&3).


LOOK 2- If your evening calls for more sophisticated style try a teal fitted sheath dress (1) offset with leopard pumps(3). Pair this bold statement  with modern, geometric earrings (2) and bring a feminine touch to the outfit with a petite, rose gold clutch (4).

Happy New Year!
