New Year New Goals

Happy New Year Everyone! I am VERY Happy 2014 is over! Besides getting married 2014 was a year I would like to forget, for the most part. I am grateful for all I have but in terms of my career goals and progression it was a horrible year. As we prayed into the New Year, my mind was screaming, 'YES!!! 2014 is OVER!!!' (Insert Drake Song here.)  I know a lot of you are thinking but you're always smiling?? I've learned to find happiness through every single storm, to keep myself sane and those around me happy.

In 2015, I'm going all out, no holding back! I'm pursuing my goals at full force and keeping my business to myself until I have all the answers. I guess I'm going to start being very Nigerian in my conversations now and much more private, not revealing whatever it is I'm doing until it's set in stone. Secondly, I'm going to consistently write down all my goals (prayer points) out and staying sedfast in my faith. You'd be amazed at all the things that come to pass by simply writing them down.

I'm really excited for the new year and all it has to bring. A few of my close friends are getting married, some are expecting their first child, and I'm going to have a nephew in a couple of weeks!! I'm a bit overjoyed about the latter because it means my parents, mainly my mother, won't be bugging me for a grandchild soon!

Thanks to everyone for always asking me where my post are and to everyone who supported me in 2014 and the years before!! The best is yet to come.

By the way, I have a instagram post asking about pricing points of my latest product: 'Handmade ankara and leather bag tags.' If you leave feedback with your opinion and advice, one lucky person will receive a free one and everyone else will receive a 15% off coupon code when they are launched online.

Now to my outfit. I have been dressing so simple this winter, I'll take it up a few notches when it starts warming up. I''m just trying to stay warm! lol. I scored this grey Coat last year for £15.00 during the H&M sales. I swear January and February are the best time to buy Winter Coats. I'm looking for a nice bright purple coat but can't find one, sigh...anyway here's yet another simple + minimalistic ensemble *wink*.

Happy New Year! Totally in agreement with writing down your goals. I did the same thing a couple weeks back and it's been very fulfilling so far.

In terms of price point, I think the tassels can be sold at $10. If you must go higher, $15.
