What I Wore Wed-nes-day: New Years Eve

dress: forever 21
coat: forever 21 (last year)




{love the collar!}

shoes: j. crew (my wedding shoes!)


New Year's Eve this year was one for the record books.  I got to spend it with some of the people closest to my heart, and that meant the absolute world!  I mean, what better way to ring in the new year?!  We partied it up at my parent's house with my brothers and sister-in-law, eating a delicious steak dinner, playing wii jeopardy, scrabble and other board games and of course ending with a big ole' bottle of bubbly.  Of course. Tears were shed, but only from laughing so hard.  The best kind of tears.

I hope your New Years was full of laughing until you cried and eating delicious food and celebrating with those you love.  Here's to a happy and healthy 2013 to you all, darlings!  A few of my "resolutions" (if we must call them that) are to teach myself piano, read French every day, show kindness and grace to everyone I meet, continue to exercise and be the healthiest me possible, eat clean and to learn to cook!  Because all good wives know how to cook, right? 

Speaking of being healthy, the hubs just ordered us this awesome little box of healthy snacks for $5! It's usually $20, so we figured it wouldn't hurt to try it out.  I'm excited to see what's in it!  I mean, I'm kind of a sucker for snacks.  Use coupon code NEWYEAR to get that price.  Click here if you wanna try it out with me!

What are some of your resolutions for the new year?

    1. Thank you, darling!! :) That’s so cool that you taught yourself, too! We have a piano in our house (my mom gave me hers) and all of her old beginner’s books are here, so I figured I really have no excuse!

  20. Oh the Fabulousness! Of course I pulled a "Classic Angela" and left my dress shopping for NYE to the very last minute. I searched Forever21 far & wide and found nothing, apparently if I had been shopping with you I would have had better luck!

    Great pictures and resolutions dear! So glad you had a wonderful night!
    Happy New year to you and your hubb!!
