2016 Style Resolutions

Resolutions
{ source }


New Years Eve has always been, for me, a night for celebrating with good food and good people. As the clock ticks down, I'm always hoping that next year will bring a plethora of changes; this year was no different. I always pretend that I'll work out more (I mean... I should), spend less (again...), and that all my style dreams will come true. That last one's kind of vague, no? And I've realized, that if I want all my style dreams to come true, it means that I have to work piece by piece and very hard. And this year, I think I'm ready. So, in order to make all of my style dreams come true, I've created a list of style resolutions that I'm promising to stick by this year.

1. Dress everyday like it's a style post
Up to this point, I really have thought about my style choices as alright, especially compared to other bloggers (see #2). Because of that, I tended to dress okay in real life and put my absolute best outfit forward for style posts on the blog. There are so many reasons I need to change that mindset. For one, I want to start posting more style posts for you guys, so I need to be ready any day. Also, fake it 'til you make it. I love my style, and I need to start loving it more until I can pop on anything and be certain I look good. If that means dressing up, so be it.

2. Stop comparing myself to other bloggers
Comparison kills. It's true.

3. Invest in classic pieces, not "must-haves"

Are you planning on making style resolutions this year? What's on your list?

Hey guys! I'm so, so, so, so, so sorry for the lack of posts. I decided to give Lichtenstyle a major face lift, and it's taking a lot longer than I thought! Don't worry, it'll be back very soon!

Fashion trends come and go, but one that I've seen in the front and center for a lot longer than I expected is sneaker wedges. I don't know if they're something I could ever pull off, but for some reason, I really want to try. I've seen a ton of bloggers trying them out and styling them perfectly, but I feel like if they landed in my hands, they'd just become dirty, gross lazy day shoes. Honestly, that's what I think of when I think sneakers: lazy day shoes that you throw on with a pair of jeans, a white t-shirt, and you're good to go. Hm, maybe wedge sneakers don't sound to bad after all. They are super comfortable on top of being an easy go to. I'm slowly being persuaded now!

What about you? What do you think of wedge sneakers? Will you be trying out this trend or passing?
