2016 vs. 2017 Resolutions

We all have things we would’ve liked to accomplish in 2016, maybe that gym membership didn’t get used how you would’ve hoped, or you didn’t book that dream vacation. Whatever wasn’t accomplished in 2016 can be written off or carried on into 2017. What’s great about the New Year you ask? A fresh start…

Make a list of goals that you see for yourself in 2017 and hold yourself accountable to reaching them in 2017. They may seem unattainable or hard but don’t give up. You can do it! The time is now, get after it.

Find the Perfect NYE Dress

Everyone deserves a little glitz and glam for the NYE celebrations. You can find some really affordable and cute dresses at the one and only Forever 21, they always bring the goods this time of year. Or try Express, or go for one of the more glitzy stars at the mall. Sequins and sparkles are highly recommended. I have a few of these dresses hanging up in my closet waiting to go out on the town.

So get dolled up, buy that dress you want, and have a blast with your friends and family. Cheers to 2017 and a safe & prosperous year to all.
