I'm excited about 2012. Well, I'm excited every day that I wake up in my right mind...it's another opportunity to get it right! I have the distinct pleasure of turning 50 this year. I can't remember ever being in a better place in my life! That being said, I would like to pass along these guidelines that help me in my journey to live my best life.
My Look Inside Guide:
1) Not only will I be looking inside my closet for garments to wear but I will be looking inside myself and taking a more natural to approach on what I decide to wear. Not just adhering to what retailers suggest but more knowing what looks and feels good to me taking in account my body type, skin color and level of comfort.
2) Keeping myself in a good state of mind...whatever the situation! Lots of self help reading and learning from past experiences good and bad.
3) As I get older, it becomes more important to me to celebrate my age rather than conceal it. By choosing age appropriate clothing and focusing on my health I continue to look fabulous at any age-if I do say so myself. Eating a healthy diet, drinking lots of water, continuing my long walks and biking help me achieve this goal.
4) I moved from a 1700 sq. ft. loft in DC to a 350 sq. ft. flat in NYC...that being said there is very little closet space. Therefore I will only purchase garments that truly speak to me! Verses a trendy idem that will take up valuable space in my closet unworn for seasons to come.
5) Lastly, I surround myself with the things and people the make me happy. I'm fortunate to work from home...where I have my photos of family members and dear friends as well as my books. The sound of jazz fills my flat like Bricktop's in 1920's Paris.
For 2012, I'm looking inside and I love what I see!
