31 Days of Blogging, Day 31

Day 31, What is your wish for the new year?

My wish is to get more organized in my life and make myself a priority.  I usually put my needs and wants on the back burner. This year I'm going to start putting myself first and make me a priority.
Sometimes, I get so busy that I forget to take a break and have a life for myself.
This year, I'm going to put myself first and  have a life.

What is your wish for the New Year?

31 Days of Blogging, Day 24

Linking up with Emily for 31 Days of Blogging.

Day 24- post your favorite quote or verse of scripture and why

My Favorite Quote

Pinterest

My favorite Quote is Keep Calm and Carry on. It's the British slogan from World War II. 

Due to various reasons (I sometimes lead a very stressful life due to family and work obligations), I tend to get quite upset and stressed over things. My dear friend, CBM, introduced me to this saying when I once got so upset that I started to cry uncontrollably. It since has become my motto.

 Keep Calm and Carry on...Tomorrow is another day.

What is your favorite quote?

 Let me know, I love hearing from you!

Friday's Fancies-Holiday Best

Linking up with {av} for Friday's Fancies.

               

This week's Friday's Fancies theme is Holiday Best. Since, I'm going from work straight to my family's Christmas Eve celebration, I needed my outfit to go from office to party. The first thing I picked out was this red dress. Isn't it fab? It can be dressed up or down. Love a dress that can be used in various ways. More bang for your buck! This outfit is similar to my actual Christmas Eve outfit.

This has been a very hard week. I, like many others, was rocked to the core by the events in Newtown, CT last friday. My heart breaks for them.
All gone too soon.

In Loving Memory

Victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting

Newtown, your are forever in my heart.
May the memories of your loved ones comfort you at this most difficult time.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Much thanks to {av} for letting me link up for Friday's Fancies!

Friday's Fancies-Serious Sparkle

Linking up with {av} for Friday's Fancies. 

            

This week's Friday Fancies theme is Serious Sparkle.  When I first heard this week's theme, I was a little apprehensive. Now, I work with dresses and I love sparkle, you would think it would be quite easy for me to put a look together. Nope, not at all.  I can find you a dress that will look fantastic on you but as for putting it all together, well, I always struggle with that. The reason for that is everyone has their own idea of what they like and sometimes it's hard to look beyond that.

People see an all sequin dress and run the other way. They shouldn't, with the right fit and the right cut, a sequin dress can be fabulous!! I'm a big fan of bracelet sleeves on dresses, there is something so regal about it to me. I will be honest, I hate my arms and always have them covered. Perhaps that's why I'm so draw to dresses with bracelets sleeves.

My advice to anyone looking for a dress, is to have an open mind and try them on. Most dresses do not have any hanger appeal, so try something on that you normally wouldn't. That one dress you were going to overlook because it didn't look good on the hanger could be THE dress you were looking for but didn't think it would look good on you. 

Much thanks to {av} for letting me link up for Friday's Fancies!
