Get The Look: My NYE 2012

NYE is a great time to get your sparkle on ... some women wait for this day to shine but I wear sequins to the grocery store in my sleepy coastal California surfing town. Of course I would have to break it out to wave goodbye to 2011 and celebrate all the possibilities that 2012 will bring.

With FAB Bubbly in hand (Veuve Clicquot) I rocked in 2012 in the following look:

Of course it is an eclectic mix of Fashions Past (Vintage) and Fashions Present!

GET THE LOOK:

Vintage Sequin Top from EVOLUTION VINTAGE:

Forever 21 Stretch Skinny Jeans:

Patricia Field Five Finger Half Gloves - BLACK

Under my gloves I ROCKED a Sally Hensen Nail Effects Dry Manicure (Faux Snake Skin Print)

Black Women's Nicholette Peep Toe Bootine (The first time I have ever got a pair of boots/shoes from PAYLESS and I LOVE them!!)

Don't limit your sparkle to NYE - Make sequins a part of your celebratory wardrobe, take it to dinner, cocktails or anywhere just because YOU ARE FABULOUS!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! MAY 2012 BE YOUR BEST YEAR EVER!!!

2012: Bring It On

Another year is upon us, ripe with possibility and promise. Are you and your perspective ready? I truly believe our happiness and level of personal success is directly correlated with our perspectives and attitudes. It is less about WHAT happens to us or what we experience and more about how we perceive it and what attitude we adapt.

I personally perceive 2012 as a grand opportunity. Some people that I have talked to are happy to see 2011 go and are not very optimistic about what lies ahead for them (more stress, etc).

The most positive thing about the dawning of a new day is the chance to turn your perspective and consequently your life around. CHEERS to that!

How I'm going to prepare for the New Year:

* Set realistic goals and expectations for 2012 so as to not set myself up for failure or disappointment.

* One Day At A Time - it is great to look down the road to see what is ahead but I want to work harder to be more "present" and enjoy each day as it is presented.

* Put myself back "on the list" - I cannot be a good mother, wife or business person if there is little or no time for SELF CARE.

May 2012 bring EACH of you LOVE and TRUE HAPPINESS. May you work to realize your goals and dreams no matter how big or small. Bring it on 2012!!! I know you have a lot of excitement in store for us all.

Happy New Year and thank you for your continued support of Evolution Revolution!! I look forward to providing some amazing content in the new year and BEYOND!

Stay in Sequin's Ladies

My pre-holiday obsession? Embellished garments: Sequin, Beading & Rhinestones ... OH MY! We (by WE I mean YOU because I wear sequins to the grocery store) all make excuses that we/you have "no wear to wear" a sparkly, or heavily embellished item(s) for fear of being over dressed. But never fear; HOLIDAY SEASON is here! Trim your Thanksgiving table wearing beads, have Christmas cocktails in sequins and welcome 2012 is rhinestones! Get your sparkle on this holiday season in an embellished top, dress or accessories!

My FAV accessory for Every Day is the SEQUIN BERET! Available in a wide variety of colors they are inexpensive and totally Fabulous to dress up or down. I love sporting this for Pre-School Drop off and grocery shopping.
