yes I'm late, but happy new year anyway! I hope that everyone has made at least 5 new year's resolutions and plans on sticking to at least 1 of them. I've made several resolutions this year I think the more resolutions you make, the more liely you are to keep at least one of them. I dont expect that they'll all happen right away, but with some planning and determination, i hope to have accomplished them all by the end of the year.
I have an idea that if you set a resolution or goal for different aspects of your life, you'll have a greater chance of achieving them. For example, 4 major things that I want to work on involve 1. my kitchen, 2. personal style 3. my apartment decor, and 4. my wardrobe. Heres what I mean:
1. I want to not only be more active in the kitchen, trying new recipes and getting more creative, but also I want expand my kitchen stock - pots, pans, utensils, glass wear, and seasonings. This is something i can work on each time im in the grocery store, by grabbing a new spice every time, or getting a good roasting pan when i see it o
n sale at target.
2. In women's magazine there is always a story on developing your personal style. Style changes as people change. At this time, i am really beginning to love very girly and feminine things. I really like floral prints, hearts, anything with the word "Love", flowers and, of course, Paris themes. So i look out for things that will help me to develop my personal style more. Even the smallest things, like when i came across this key chain at Old Navy. Just like the one from the Sex and the City movie!
3. Which bring us to my next resolution. So far i think i've done a great job of decorating my apartment and creating the Parisian theme that I wanted. Now i want to add a little more of my personal style. When I first moved, I kept a lot of fresh flowers, but it's been a while since ive been to the farmers market, and thats really something I want to start doing again. I also want to add a tall floor lamp for reading, a side table, and a few more accent pillows. I have such tall blank walls so I really want to add a lot of art. I came across some beautiful floral and Parisian themed prints by ISPhotographyon Etsy like these:


4. Last is something i always say im going to work on but never do - I really want to wear heels more often. I always run across women in heels at the grocery store or mall, and while im not saying I'm going to wear theme very day, I do want to wear them more often on a weekly basis, not just when im going to the club. Someplace, somewhere there is always a shoe sale, so I''ll definitely be on the lookout for cute shoes for less in 2010.
Sure, these resolutions are pretty broad, but by applying resoltuions to various aspects of my life, I hope to have a greater chance of keeping them. Please feel free to share some of your goals and resolutions with me!
