My "I want to do more of" list for 2012

I'm not usually a "New Years resolution" kinda girl. After reading Jeremy's Men's Monday post, I thought (and with Jeremy's encouragement) that I should make a few New Years Fashion resolutions. I agree with Jeremy about being more bold, and daring in my clothing choices, but when I started writing this post, it turned into a things "I want to do more of" list, rather then Fashion resolutions. So... here's what I came up with...

More coffee/hot chocolate dates with the ladies

Better posture (I tend to be a sloucher)

Having fresh cut flowers in my room..                                                     Wearing heels on a regular bases

Some of this... <3 <3

Be a little more dressy in my day to day outfits (even if it is just school)

Wear red lipstick more...

Eat more of these!! YUM YUM!!

And most of all... take time out of my crazy day to appreciate the simple things in life.

May your dreams, and wants come true this 2012!!

Here's to...

"A toast.

To nearest. To dearest.

To the crew. To cahoots.

To the ones who've been there. To the ones who'll be there.

To dropping everything. To saying anything.

To no judgements. To no doubts.

To loyalty. To trust.

To favors. To lifelongs.

To 'been too long'. To nothing's changed.

To having history. To having your back.

To moving away. To never too far.

To growing up. To settling down.

To your second family.

To friends.

To celebrating with those who matter most."

To dreaming bigger.

To more. 

To less is more.

To hard work.

Whatever your resolution {or anti-resolution!} I hope everyone spends the last bit of 2011 with amazing people, smiling, laughing, and celebrating! 

Wishing you light and love for 2012.

Happy New Year!

Raise Your Glass

Christmas is over, and you know what that means... Saying bye to 2011 and ringing in the new year!

I can't wait for the countdown, confetti, balloons, dresses, and champagne of course!

Dress to Impress

Ok! So it's that time of year again where everyone starts thinking about the new year. The buzz of potential new years resolutions are being talked about, and the stress of trying to figure out what to do and wear for New Year's Eve begins.

Everyone who knows me, knows I absolutely love Christmas! I'm one of those annoying people full of holiday cheer who wants to share it with everyone! Personally I'm not a huge fan of New Year's Eve celebrations, it's a little overrated.

But on the upside of things I love any excuse to get over the top dolled up because I can...
it's NEW YEAR'S EVE!! Really all I care about it having my friends around me, a glass of champagne in my hand, and fabulous outfit on (forget the fantasy parties and resolution stuff)!

So what to wear on New Year's...

The holiday's is all about sparkle, and being "playful" with patterns. Black is a classic colour for a New Year's dress, but why not dazzle it up with some holiday colour?!?

Don't forget to finish your outfit off with some frosting...

Perfect time to get creative with make up, and use some colours you wouldn't normally use.

Don't forget your fingers.

I'm all about up-dos for the holiday parties

Adele's hairstyle is classic.

May the holidays bring you love, and happiness!
