2011: year end review

2011 was good. 2012 will be better. Happy New Year!!!!
New outfit post up next :) 

As I reflect on the events of the past year, I recognize successes and failures, gains and losses. Each event has taught me something and made me wiser. Knowing this, I acknowledge and release the past year in gratitude.

In contemplation of the coming year, whether I am excited or apprehensive, I know the spirit of God will empower me to meet every situation with confidence and strength. With this in mind, I release any concerns I may have about the future.

Today I am ready to stand tall in this present moment. I appreciate the now, perfectly balanced between the blessings of the past and the promise of the future. This is the moment of power and action. I am ready!

ebew: sequins + sparkles

ETA: I currently have very limited computer & Internet access, but I'll be back to blogging soon...
 I was really excited when I found out the latest EVERYBODY EVERYWHERE challenge was sequins + sparkles. Both S's are right up my alley :) I actually wore sequins out last Friday night, and I'm pretty sure I'm wearing it for NYE, so there's much more sequins + sparkles to come :) 

wearing: zara blazer, j crew top, f21 jeggings MOJO MOKY LOREN heels

mojo moxy loren


I think these beauties speak for themselves :) 

I don't know if you've noticed, but my posts haven't been as frequent and I haven't been swinging by my fav blogs as much. That should all change once my semester ends. My apologies. #badblogger

P.S. I haven't forgotten about all of you who are looking out for a hair post. I think I'm going to put together a Google Doc or something instead of doing a post. If you're interested in me sending it to you, please shoot me an email at simplychic08@gmail.com.

peplum

First off, congrats to Shasie of LIVE LIFE IN STYLE...winner of the Shabby Apple Giveaway and soon to be owner of the Andes skirt! 
Apparently, peplum dresses, skirts, jackets etc are back in style? I never knew they went away. Ha! I've had this dress for over two years, and I wear it every time an occasion calls for me to get a little fancy, including last year on NYE and the NYE before that. This year, I promise myself and you I won't wear this dress again : ) In fact, this year for NYE I'm pretty sure I'm wearing pants :) Have a great start to the week!
