Cardigan: Anthropologie, Jeans: Citizens of Humanity (similar wash here), Tank: Hinge(this is a great layering tank. Super soft and washes really well), Shoes: Manolo Blahnik (similar for less here), Bag: Chanel, Lipstick: Mac "Rebel"
I love a good oversized sweater/cardi. They are a great topper to basic looks, not to mention they're super comfortable. This cardi from Anthropologie is soooooo soft and I love the way it drapes. Today I'm pairing it with my trusty (and also beyond comfy) boyfriend jeans and white heels for a casual, relaxed look. But, I've also worn it with dark wash skinnies and cobalt blue heels for a more polished vibe. And, I'm also picturing it belted at the waist with white skinnies and nude heels. So good! It's easily one of my new favorite pieces!
T-Shirt: Madewell (also like these here, and here), Jeans: Citizens of Humanity "Emerson" (also here, and here in different washes. I have this style in two washes and I love it! Worth the investment for sure.), Heels: Manolo Blahnik (similar here, and here), Hat: Anthropologie (no longer available), Infinity Scarf: H&M (similar here, and here), Bag: Chanel, Lipstick: Mac "Chili" Looking forward to positive changes in my life. Looking forward to possibilities. Looking forward to new experiences. Looking forward to traveling and discovering new places alongside my husband. Looking forward to getting out of my comfort zone. Looking forward to meeting and being inspired by new people. Looking forward to new adventures. Looking forward to a wonderful year!
I've never been one to make new year's resolutions. I believe that you can "resolve" to do something whenever you want, regardless of the time of year. However, there is just something about a new year that feels like a blank slate to me. A time where we can right our wrongs, so to speak. It's a great time to start fresh and set new goals and intentions for ourselves.
So, I thought it would be fun to share with you some of my goals and intentions for this new year. These are totally random and in no particular order, and some of them are goals that have rolled over from previous years because, you know- I'm human, and definitely a work in progress.
So, without further ado, here are some things I am setting out to really focus on this year:
1) Don't overthink stuff.
2) Spend more time in prayer and conversation with God.
3) Visit my in-law's once a month.
4) Always keep in mind that what others think of me is none of my business (There will ALWAYS be haters.)
5) Get caught up on my pre-paid massages.
6) Be more patient. Especially with loved ones. (This one is definitely a recurring one! I am so bad at this.)
7) Increase my average walk/run weekly mileage to 20 miles. I was averaging about 15 miles.
8) Spend more time reading, listening to, and speaking Italian.
9) Find a new signature perfume- Ideally in Italy!
10) Go somewhere cold and Christmas-y this Christmas.
What about you? Do you have any goals that you'd like to accomplish this year? I'd love to hear about them. Let me know in the comments below.
P.S. These boots are totally made for walking. I have worn them so much since I bought them in early November. They were practically the only boots I wore when I went to NYC, Atlanta, and Charleston back in November/December. I walked all over for hours at a time without any problem at all. They are super comfortable and they are on major sale right now!
P.P.S Please forgive my hot mess hair in these pics.They were taken right after a big rain shower, and to say that it was humid would be an understatement. I swear I felt my hair getting bigger and frizzier as my husband was snapping away. #curlyhairgirlproblems
Happy Wednesday, friends! The second week of the new year is in full swing so, by now, we should all be nicely settled in to our daily grind, and also diligently working toward those goals that we set for ourselves a couple weeks back. Hopefully.
Speaking of goals, I purchased this day planner and I am loving it! It allows you to see each month at a glance in addition to breaking it down into weeks/days. It has a page for you to write down your goals for all the different areas of your life, ie. personal, family, financial, etc... Plus, it's so stylish! If you've been thinking about getting a planner this year, you should definitely check this one out.
Have a wonderful rest of the week, and make sure you stop by on Monday as I share with you some of my goals for this year.
