New Year

{via}

Everyone knows the cliché "New Year, New Me". The beginning of any new year usually means a rush of euphoria right as the Times Square NYE ball is about to drop, a fresh start, and setting new goals. Most people make New Years resolutions, but most of them never happen. This year I have come up with a few {realistic} goals for myself that I hope to attain during 2014.

{1} Be Truly Happy- I have always struggled with being happy with myself and the way my life is. This year my main goal is to achieve real happiness for myself, and positively affect my entire being.

{2} Choose the right college for me- I will be going off to college in a few months {time is flying by!} and I have narrowed my choices down to my favorite two. It is going to be a tough decision, and I want to make sure that I make the decision solely for myself and my future.

{3} Start doing yoga and pilates- For the past six or so months I have been running 2+ miles every day, and would love to incorporate some yoga and pilates into my workout routine!

What goals are you setting for yourself in 2014?

Bring on the Warm Weather

Now that the Holiday season is over, many of my favorite companies are starting to release (very) early Spring 2014 collections. Seeing all of the gorgeous bright colors makes me long for warmer weather and the carefree summer months. These are a few items from the collections that I am lusting over.

Style Guide: Hunter Boots

I just received a pair of black glossy Hunter Boots for Christmas, and I am in love! I have already worn them twice; they are just so versatile and comfortable. They will definitely be a staple piece in my wardrobe, especially next year when I am living in the south! Pinterest is my all time favorite place for fashion inspiration, so naturally I found some outfits that included Hunter Boots! Here are a few of my all time favorites...

Merry Christmas To All

{Blouse // Pixie Pant // Quilted Barbour Coat // Riding Boots: (Similar) // Pearls}

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope y'all had a fantastic day with your families and friends! I spent my day in Virginia with family and it was great; filled with lots of laughs, great food and great memories! I am so grateful for all of my family and friends, and all of the gifts I received! We woke up very early this morning to open presents and eat our traditional Christmas morning breakfast before heading to see the family. I hope to share some of my favorite gifts in a future post! I definitely had a wonderful Christmas!

Christmas Eve: What I Wore

Merry Christmas Eve! I hope y'all have had a wonderful day! I spent the day with my Mom's family, exchanging gifts and just spending time with one another. I will probably spend the rest of the night watching Christmas movies and opening a few more gifts! I am excited for Christmas day tomorrow and all that it may bring!
