The new year is here & I’m back to regular scheduled programming. I didn’t plan on taking a blogging break, but it was much needed. I had time off from my full time job and took a break from my mark. business and just decided to completely shut down and enjoy every ounce of the holidays I could. There were a few days I didn’t even turn on the computer and it was heaven!
I feel like my brain was on overdrive up until a few days before Christmas and it wouldn’t slow down. I had a never ending to do list, but couldn’t seem cross anything off. I was worrying about the most ridiculous things instead of actually enjoying the season. I needed to step back and realize what was important.
The time off definitely did me good because I’m back and focused and definitely ready for the new year! Excited to see what 2013 brings!

Leopard inspired faux furs never really go out of style! It's been around for quite some time and it's still a design that many women would love to have. Yours is really nice because it's shade is not too loud.
