A Little Inspiration

You are worthy of love and respect.

You are beautiful, gifted, and intelligent.

Don't let the storm make you forget that.

Winter Colours

Over the past couples, I have noticed a pattern.
I have only been wearing black, white and navy blue clothes. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Maybe I want to blend in with the doom and gloom of winter rather than bring a little sunshine to the season. 

I am mourning the loss of sunshine and perpetual warmth hahaha.

Anyway, above are some of my favourite pieces for winter. Simple dresses, lots of knitwear with simple designs, A-line skirts, closed-toe heels, and, of course, a classic pair of black leather booties.

Here are some of my favourite stores for winter shopping Xx.

A Little Epiphany

Today in my Journalism class we were asked to list our three main "specialities", or topics that we know a lot about and that we would be comfortable writing about throughout the semester. This was quite difficult for me because I have never considered myself to be exceptional at any one thing before. But once I really thought about it, I realized that I have learned a far bit about fashion and style trends both through this blog and through Polyvore. My other topics were food and health.

I had an epiphany. If these topics are really so important to me, why don't I talk about them, explore them, research them, and write about them here on my blog more often? (Right, I am a full-time student with a part-time job and a commited relationship :P)

Anyways.

The idea that I have is that once a week - sort of as a break from everything -I will publish a post for health, a post for food, and a post for fashion (fingers cross that it will be an actual outfit post).

It is time to make my interests and passions of a higher priority in my life!

New Year, New Goals

Happy 2015 everyone!

A whole year has come and gone, and I have learned so much from 2014. So here are some of my resolutions to better myself in 2015!

1. Stop procrastinating! as noted by the current date, I obviously struggle with procrastination. Whether it be school work, chores, or blogging, I am constantly putting off the things that I need to get done. No more! This year I am going to make a 120% conscious effort to put a stop to this habit.

2. Put more effort into my blog. This blog has become quite important to me and has helped me realize justs how much I enjoy learning about fashion, style, and both current and past trends. And it's not fair to my readers to only get one post a month (if that!). So here's hoping!

3. Try harder at school. I am almost done my third year of university and this past semester was the first semester that I did not recieve a D in any of my classes. I am going to do my best to make that a good pattern for the remainder of my degree.

4. Budget my spending money better. I don't know if any of you know this but I am a very compulsive shopper, especially when it comes to clothes (and shoes!). And I'm not saying that I want to force myself to stop shopping so much. But rather, I would like to control my spending better and force myself to think "Do I really need this? Do I currently own anything like this? When would I wear/use this in my day-to-day life?"

What are some of your New Years resolutions? Let me know in the comments below Xx.
