Going Out in Gold

Wow, 2012 feels like it's been such a long year. Just a year ago I was still in school and now I'm in a stage of my life where I need to start being more responsible and planning for the future. This year has definitely showed me my faults and weaknesses and highlighted things I need to work on. It was also full of great memories and friends, especially ending my last semester at college. More than specific New Year's resolutions, this year I want to focus on improving my life as a whole:

• live a healthier lifestyle 
• a goal both WP and I have. work out more, less processed foods, more natural
• push myself more with goals, stop trying to be comfortable 
• career wise, lifestyle wise, etc
• document more things 
• take more pictures, write more daily reflections
• keep up with my blog!

I fell in love with this bag the moment I saw it online, because I was looking for a classic black bag with a modern twist. This is the PERFECT bag. I knew I needed to have it once I saw the zippers on the side reveal nude wings. Classic yet modern = perfect. Thank you boyfriend! <3
