“New Year New Me” How many times have you heard someone say that? Or maybe you’ve even told yourself that. When the new year comes around, people start to find so many things about themselves and their life that they want to change. But why do we feel the need to wait until a new year to start fresh? What’s holding us back? If you really truly wanted to change then why wait? I think that’s always why i’ve never really believed in New Years resolutions. While it is great to make goals and strive to reach them during the year, you don’t have to wait!
Make your goals NOW,
be who you really want to be NOW,
figure out the people you want to be in your life NOW,
learn who no longer needs to be in your life NOW,
start eating healthy NOW,
exercise everyday NOW,
work hard and then go out and have fun NOW,
realize that life is way too short to constantly be waiting for a new year to start fresh!
I think that’s why I’ve always loved fashion. It allows us to show the people we come into contact with everyday, who we truly are. As soon as you put together your favorite outfit and slip it on, you instantly feel like that person you want to be. The right outfit makes you feel unstoppable - almost as if you could take over the whole world. When you’re wearing something you love, it gives you the power to conquer your dreams and goals NOW.
The other night I visited my favorite location of DownTown San Antonio - The Pearl Brewery. Although I go down there many times each month, I had never explored it at night. It was absolutely beautiful. I sat on a little table outside drinking my coffee as I started to people watch. There was so much laughter and talking happening all around me, I found it to be fascinating. I had no idea who these people around me were or what they were talking about, but I do know they were enjoying their life NOW and that is something we should all strive to always do.
I decided to go for a very 90’s grunge meets modern sporty in this outfit. This amazing distressed denim jacket with sheer tights gave a hard core look that I am in love with!
Under the jacket is a simple white V-neck tee with layered necklaces for a more put together look. The sporty side of the outfit comes from the ankle high Nike socks and body con skirt that says “Title Boxing”. I found this unique skirt at a thrift store a few months ago and it is currently one of my favorite pieces in my closet! While wearing this outfit, I felt so free yet so in control - I just wanted to take on the whole world that night!
