Goals.

Happy 2012! I hope you guys had a wonderful New Year's Eve, and that you were surrounded by loved ones. 

I spent it with my hubby and another couple, and enjoyed every second of it. We went out for a nice dinner, and then watched the fireworks from Kerry park. It's one of the best places to go for a good view of Seattle!

I really love New Year's resolutions. I can't say that I completely follow through on all of them, but I absolutely love making goals for myself. I figured with a long list of goals, I'm bound to at least accomplish a few of them!

So, here are my goals for the new year.

1. Get on a regular blogging schedule.

2. Create a fun and creative workout routine, and stick to it!

3. Improve my guitar playing skills.

4. Start selling some of my handmade goods.

5. Give more of myself to others.

6. Keep a journal of things that I'm inspired by.

7. Try to always be kind and loving to those around me.

8. Grow my hair out past my shoulders.

9. Rent a house.

10. Travel to at least three places. 

So my goals are not that crazy, but I definitely think they are great ones. Hopefully I can complete at least a few of them. 

Do you have any goals for the new year? If so, please share them. I'd love to know.

 (That's me and my adorable friend Jackie. We were ALL about the sequins and sparkles.)

Happy Monday!

Twins

Dress-Forever 21/Jacket-Target/Scarf and headband-gifts!/Oxfords-Target

I wish I could take complete credit for this dress, but it actually belongs to my little sister. She has pretty good taste, if I say so myself. I gave her a few things from my closet, so she let me borrow this little number for awhile. I just love the little hearts on it! During my trip home during the holidays, I realized how much the two of us are alike. We look alike, talk alike, say the same things, and are about exactly the same height. She's nine years younger than I am, but I think we are long lost twins. I always wanted someone to share clothes with, and I just love that she is finally my size! Or maybe it's that I'm finally her size? Either way, it's a lot of fun. 

I love this dress so much that she might have a hard time ever getting it back :). Also, these oxfords were on sale for like $12.99 at Target. So if you're on the hunt for a comfy pair, I'd run to Target now before they sell out!

I am so excited for New Year's Eve! I hope I get a chance to snap a few pictures of my outfit. Let's just say it includes a LOT of sparkle.

Happy Friday!

Sparkle.

There is something about this time of year that just makes me want to wear sparkles all the time. I definitely am a sucker for sequins year-round, but I feel like they are especially festive during the holidays, don't you agree? I don't a great sparkly dress, but I do have a few sequined sweaters, and I'm going to make sure they get some good use this month!
Here are a few sparkle inspirations that I've been obsessing over via pinterest.
