So, I'm a Utah resident again! After 11 hours of sub-zero driving yesterday, we finally arrived at our new home. My New Year's Eve celebration wasn't the fanciest thing ever - I spent it watching a train wreck of television know as the coverage of the SLC celebration - but New Year's is meant to give way to new beginnings. There hasn't been a problem finding a new start here. For example: It got down to -10 degrees last night, and I need to get used to everything being closed on Sundays. Overall, I couldn't be more excited, and I can't wait to hit the thrift stores in the area.

As a New Year's Resolution, I decided to start a TWITTER account. You can follow my daily activities here:

You always look so good and so chic. You are so stylish! That shirt and skirt, I adore. But the best thing about your outfit is the way you've paired the shoes with the socks and then with the black skirt.
happy new year!
