New Year, New Me

Happy New Year!
I had an awesome night last night. I went to an early church service, followed by dinner and a champagne toast at midnight. My BFFF and I had an awesome night. So we both had to figure out an outfit that was appropriate for church and also had a litttle NYE flare for dinner. I've changed my look for the New Year.
I hope you guys like it!
Finally wore the Marc Jacobs dress I got at Salvation Army for $9.99

Paired it with gold tear drop earrings from H&M

I have so many great ideas for this year 2011, I cant wait to get started. For one I will be doing more of these photo slide shows. I really enjoy making these videos to some of my favorite music. Music really inspires some of my clothing.

My New Years Personal Committments to Myself:
1. Save more money $100 per paycheck and $50 towards retirement per paycheck
2. Travel to Spain (in May already planned yay!) and France (Maybe September???) in 2011
3. Work out on my Wii 3x week and jog 45 min 2x weekly

(I had to make my resolutions very specific I was told to be able to achieve them!)
So how was your NYE and what are your Resolutions for 2011???

Here are a few pics from the above video

  3. Hey there! Happy New Year! My only resolution will be to save more and pay off some bills (I'll have to start paying back my student loans this year...sorrow). Love both dresses but I think my fav is the black and white one! The slide show project is really cool...looking forward to seeing more!
