HAPPY NEW YEAR & MERRY 2019! Wishing for you blessings upon blessings this new year; may your 2019 be filled with love and adventure and growth (and cute clothes!) ;) 2018 was one for the books; it has definitely been the busiest year of my life, but it's also been the most rewarding!
I decided to try a unique take on a new year's resolutions list for this post. My 21st birthday is on May 2nd, so I came up with a list of 20 things I'd like to achieve before I turn 21! I've seen these types of lists before and they're always fun to read, and I'm hoping this post will hold me accountable and help me get a start on my goals for 2019!
I have less than 5 months - basically until the end of the spring semester - to achieve my list! I hope you enjoy reading over my list and hopefully feel inspired to accomplish your own goals in 2019!! P.S. - my velvet NYE dress is linked below!
XOXO - Talia
