The Style
One of my latest fashion discoveries is Ghost London UK – a British fashion label that makes the most amazing silk dresses. As a petite woman, I had to have the sleeves shortened and several extra darts added to the bust area. As such, I’m hoping they will soon make variations for us shorter women. To allow the dress to really stand out, I paired the look with a skintone-matching heel.
The Mood
Today we have a snow day in DC. As someone who grew up with snow AND attended the University of Michigan, it’s really not that bad to me. But, for DC, it is enough to snow to bring the city to a halt. I really love days like today because they force me to slow down and think about what’s next.
As I have mentioned in my recent Instagram posts, January is all about goal setting for me! I prefer to set goals in lieu of resolutions. To me, a goal speaks to something bigger, another step in the plan I have for my life. Setting goals is an important reminder that I do not have to drift along allowing life to call the shots; instead, I can take control of my path.
Query for you – do you set goals for the new year? If not, why not? Consider outlining a plan for 2019 — try setting 3-month goals, 6-month goals, 9-month goals, and 12 month goals. Having goals can give you clarity and direction — think about it this way, if you do not know where you are going, how will you ever get there?
