Happy New Years, darlins! Hope everyone had a safe and lovely New Years.  As for myself,  I kept it simple. Nothing lavish, no crowds, no confetti, no fur coats, just family.  For some reason I just wasn't too excited about ringing in the new year.  I started to wonder what was wrong with me.  Could it be that is was because I was turning 30 this year or perhaps I had no big plans or commitments.  That's when I realized I needed to set some  goals for myself, not resolutions but something to work towards.

With that said I have set some "healthy" goals for myself.  Yes healthy! A very good friend of mine always tells me to set healthy goals for myself, goals that are possible and won't put me in the hospital (as they once had) example: http://melissavelia.onsugar.com/ER-Extra-Rest-4555237 (first blog).

Before I share with you my little list of healthy goals, here's what I decided to wear to ring in the New Year.

70's Inspired Dress: Chu-La Couture * Silver Clutch: Calvin Klein * Black Tights: Tagert * Accessories: Chu-La Couture


Velvet Wedges: I don't remember! lol (Don't you hate when that happens?)

So here they are......and at the end of 2011, I will have this post to look back on. Here's to a new year, new life, new beginnings and endings. Like I've said once before, embrace change and hold fast to traditions.

My Healthy Goals (in no particular order)
  • As busy as my days get, set aside a time to spend with my boys every day.
  • I will fly on a plane this year! (never have)
  • I will lose 30lbs and begin eating healthier.
  • I will commit myself to 2 causes I truly care about and support them fully.
  • I will tell the people I love, that I love them more often.
  • I will dance more.
  • I will write love letters on paper to my husband.
  • I will limit my FaceBook time to only twice a day.
  • I will find one good thing in every person. Example, a guy who cuts me off, "Oh good he's driving a hybrid"
  • I will complement every person I meet.
  • I will read everyday.
  • I will learn French.
  • I will make those calls I dread to make in business.
  • I will take a full vacation.
  • I will pray more.
  • Last but not least, I will save more.
I know there's so many more goals I want to accomplish this year but I think, I've covered my whole plate of life already. We'll see what God has in store for me.  I leave you with one last goal, the kind of goal that got me here today.  A dreamer's goal, a goal that just doesn't seem possible today. 
  • I will get my clothing line into Fred Segal or on Robertson blvd.
Here's hoping!
