New Year, Same Me

The new year is officially here, but unlike many people I don't have any new year's resolutions. For me January 1, 2018 was just another Monday. Now, that's not to say I'm not motivated and I don't have any goals I am striving for. What I am saying is I am no more motivated to reach my goals on January 1, 2018 than I was on December 25, 2017.

The new year is officially here, but unlike many people I don't have any New Year's resolutions. For me January 1, 2018 was just another Monday. Now, that's not to say I'm not motivated and I don't have any goals I am striving for. Instead, what I am saying is I am no more motivated to reach my goals on January 1, 2018 than I was on December 25, 2017.

If you are among the people that did create a New Year's resolution list and plan to accomplish new things in 2018, I say go for it, but within reason. I do have some new things I want to accomplish as well, and hopefully we will all see them through to the end. One project I am definitely excited about is my YouTube channel. My plan is to run my YouTube channel in conjunction with my blog posts.  This week I was working with my new team Brandon Waters on video and Andrea Edwards and we put together some great looks. 

This week I am giving you two looks. The first is a plum suit from Calvin Klein, the lavender shirt keeps this look formal with a tie from Grand Frank. The other accessories are bracelets from Hand Tailor, black watch from Timex, pocket square and shoes from MS Shoe Designs. 

The second look is a brown suit from Kenneth Cole, that is slightly dressed down with a turtleneck. The look is accessorized with bracelets from Hand Tailor, brown watch from Timex, pocket square from Grand Frank, hat from Alberto Celini and wingtip shoes by Johnston & Murphy. 

Both looks are easy to put together and will definitely set you apart from your peers. When you go to most stores and make a suit purchase, they will have different variations of a blue or gray suit. If it's your first suit purchase, then I agree with those selections. On the other hand, if you are ready to stand out, consider one of these looks. ​​
