4 Changes I'm Making in 2020

February is when I start my new year off. January is always a bit messy and I'm trying to get my life back in order, but this month is my new start. I decided that I can restart the new year, with a new me - my way. I've wanted to make a few changes to my lifestyle for a while now, and what better time to do this than now. Its all about a balance, right?

New Year's Resolutions for 2015 ♥

New Year's Resolutions for 2015

Tonight when the clock strikes 12, we will be in to the first few seconds of 2015! A brand spanking new year, and I actually cannot believe it. Its very cliché but I can't get over the fact that this year has gone so quickly and this new one will be even more amazing I am sure. In this year I leave sixth form, go to university, and turn 18? What, pinch my self every time! I wrote a set of resolutions last year which you can read HERE  and I thought I would write some more this year for my blog and maybe even personal and then in sixth months have a reflection on them. I have pretty much achieved the ones I set last year and now for this year...

A few 9 months ago I set me self a few blogging NY Resolutions to stick by and see if I can get through them by the end of the year. I thought I would do a 'what have i done so far' type post to see what need to be done and what has been done. You can read the original post here but I am going to quickly go through what I have achieved. 
1. Have my own domain - DONE! I am so pleased that this year I managed to finally buy my .com that I have been wanting for so long.
2. Relax about posts and not stress - Kind of! I seem to be able to stick to posting three times a week but slowly am finding it hard with school been a lot more demanding. Hence why I am now starting to post less but making the posts more fun to read. 
3. Buy a tripod - No! Okay, so this still needs to be done and still need to find a tripod for my phone to sit on which makes it easier to take OOTD pictures and other ones in general. But I still manage to post more OOTD photos than before so that's a plus.
5. Improve Appearance - DONE! I am also very happy that I have got a nicer and neater blog design that looks so much more professional. My blog isn't ever going to look perfect but that is ok! 

I am doing very well and hopefully by the end of the year all this will be DONE!
Have you achieved anything big this year?
 

New Year's Resolutions for 2014 ♥

Every year my family and I set our selves resolutions for the year that is going to happen, as we are nearly in 2014 I thought I would share some of my life and blogging resolutions on here with you all. Many people don't follow the tradition of setting themselves 'targets' to reach, but for me it more of a motivator and helps me to succeed and achieve. Everyone is different and wants to reach for different things and here are a few of mine, I will hopefully reflect on these in 6 months time and maybe even this time next year. 

As far as blogging is concerned there are so many things that I could write in this post, but I want to make them realistic and ones that I know that I can achieve. 
1. First up is one that I know will happen as it just has to! I would like to buy a domain name for this blog, so instead of '.blogspot.com' it would be 'classandglitter.com' not only does it sound much better but it looks so much better when you write it everywhere!
2. Next I want to get into a routine, in stead of always getting stressed and always rushing some of the posts I want to relax when writing the posts and not feel the pressure to always post. I know that this seems silly but I want to enjoy the posts that I write and then this way you can enjoy them as well. I want to also get into a routine of when I post and from what I have planned so far, this is already working out!
3. Quality of photos that I put on this blog has defo improved in my personal opinion! From a dodgy phone to my old digital camera and now my newer improved phone - samsung galaxy s3 - the photos are so much better. During blogmas I edited all the photos and I found that editing them on photoshop (which I am still learning a lot about!) makes them look so much better and higher in quality. I am hoping to buy a tripod or some form of stand to take pictures of outfits and viewpoint pictures instead of roping my brother in to help! 
4. There will also be alot of improvements going on when you visit the blog each time, I want to change it up a little bit!

Next up is just more of a general resolution, and that is to enjoy my self this year and look after not only myself but everyone around me. I have a great deal of things lined up and can't wait to go to these places and have a fun time with the people I love. I think that every woman out there sets themselves the goal of losing weight every year or a certain month, for me I want to feel good and look good. I would class myself as someone who eats healthy and as a veggie I kind of do! But I do have the odd treat every now and then and there is nothing wrong with that! The quote below pretty much sums it up!
I would also like to improve my skin, I have very acne/sensitive prone skin and a way to help this is to set my self a skincare routine in stone and STICK TO IT. This will be the only way that my skin will slowly improve over time. I also want to expand with the colours I use and experiment with the colours that I use on my eyes and my lips as I think it makes all the difference to your overall look.

And that is it! I hope you didn't find this too much of a ramble! Let me know your resolutions for the upcoming year! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
