2012 Year End Review

 

Goodbye 2012 and Hellooooo...... 2013 I welcome you with open arms ;). What an amazing year 2012 was for me, not only in the blogging world but in everyday life as well. For starters, I welcomed my second little bundle of joy into the world my lovely nephew Brent, I was featured In Essence's Top 50 Fashion Instagrammers, I got a wonderful new job that I absolutely love, and gained friendships with new people who are near and dear to my heart and strengthened the friendships I already had. I am so grateful to welcome another year and forever thankful to God for allowing me to see it (because there are so many people who didn't). This year I challenge you ladies to pursue your dreams like never before, to take those ideas that you have in your head and put them into action. Don't allow ANYONE to tell you that you can't do whatever it is that God has placed in your heart to do. Prove them wrong!!!! I challenge you this year to make a Prayer Box (click HERE). It will be one of the best things you have ever made. Finally, I leave you with these words Smile, Laugh, Be Encouraged and Hang In There when times get a little Rough because "All Things Work Together For The Good" :)

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive. NEVER SURRENDER!

Take chances, take a lot of them, because honestly, no matter where you end up and with whom, it always ends up just the way it should be. Your mistakes make you who you are. You learn and grow with each choice you make. Everything is worth it. Say how you feel, always. Be you and be okay with it.

“Later that day I got to thinking about

 relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that’s just fabulous.” – Carrie Bradshaw, Sex and the City

Ladies.....Ladies.....Ladies....I feel like I need to break out the fashion record books for this post. Please excuse me while I scream at the top of my lungs as I think about this Target + Neiman Marcus collaboration. If you haven't heard tomorrow Saturday, December 1st Target and Neiman Marcus will launch their Holiday Collection online and in stores all throughout the United States. Target has partnered with Neiman Marcus and joined forces with 24 of the fashion industry's  top designers to create a collection that is worth dying for....(ok maybe not literally dying for but at least going a little broke and missing a few meals for lol lol) You can expect designs from Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, Alice and Olivia and many more all to graze your fingertips tomorrow. The collection of more than 50 pieces will range from $7.99 to $499.99 and will be available at Target and Neiman Marcus stores.

"There are 6 billion people in the world. 6 BILLION. Of those, there is one person for you. Maybe you'll meet in a small little coffee shop or at your favorite book store, a concert, or maybe you'll even meet on the train, or bump into each other in the supermarket. No matter what or how you meet there is someone out there, looking for you just like you are looking for them."
