Spring Goals

I made a list of goals at the beginning of the year, some of which I have accomplished, but many on the list remain a work in progress. Nope, haven't been going to the gym 3-5x a week. Not even close! I have been meditating, I've written "a couple" of letters. My greatest achievement has been spending more time in the water-- and I do not mean that as a joke. The goal was to get me more active in the water, in a positive way. This year I began volunteering weekly, obtaining water samples and processing them in a lab for the Blue Water Task Force; a group that is part of the Surfrider Foundation. I'd say that is a positive way of increasing my time in the water, as it's an effort to educate and advocate for clean water here on Miami Beach.

Anyhow, I decided to break up my goals for the year on a seasonal basis, starting with Spring. After all, Spring is for fresh starts. I pulled a few of the more pressing goals I have such as "Get a bike" and "Get a dog trainer for Ethel" into my first list for Spring. I sprinkled in a few others to keep things fun and keep me on my feet. Updated lists tend to keep me accountable. I'll for sure keep you posted on my progress. What are your Spring goals? xo RCN

 

Sale Must Haves - Spring 17

Though, half of the Northeast is covered in snow and dreaming of warmer days, the good news is, it's already March. Spring will be here before we know it. It's the perfect time to spend perfecting our wardrobes for when cocktails and brunch will move outdoors.

When it comes to my closet, I shop mostly sale. Except, for those few items I just have to have right now...and designer. When it comes to designer, I rely on the not often enough Netaporter.com sales (the best!). Eventually, everything (mostly everything) gets marked down. Before you go blasting your budget on the newest of new, hit the sale up first, even for the upcoming season. Sandals to layered jackets, my favorite sale items are all right here and waiting for you. Hopefully, along with some sunshine. xo RCN
