I can’t believe it has been a month since I wrote the last Smash Blog: What I’m Doing Now! Moving into the new year, my goal is to post a new “What I’m Doing Now” every Sunday. This will give me the opportunity to share with you a weekly account of life and to also connect with my audience a bit more personally.
So, as we end this year and decade, it’s only fitting to begin now, as it is the last Sunday of the decade! Wow!
Let’s jump right in!
Wearing
Crazily, I’m wearing the same Buddhism hoodie as I was in the last post. I guess you can say it’s my winter weekend go-to! No matter how worn out and tattered it gets, I still love it and get so many compliments on it!
However, my goal this coming year is to wear more dresses than pants and less weekend lounge wear. With that being said, I’ll be scouring websites over the next few months looking for different dress looks like the ones below.
Recently, I have been doing most of my dress shopping on Shein and Fashion Nova when they have free shipping and tremendous percentages off. The clothes simply fit me a lot better than the clothing that I shop for physically in the stores. And, as for my boots, I’ve been getting them all from Shoedazzle because the price and boot fit is always right.
I can’t say that I’m thrilled with how the white tights and navy knee high boots turned out with the dress from Shein (above) but it was definitely worth a try. Perhaps next time, I’ll try the dress with some ankle booties.
What do you think?
Weather
Although, we are ending December, the weather has been beautiful. The sun has been shining all this past week and we have not encountered any snow.
We actually took a mini road trip to New York on Christmas Eve to Niagara Falls, New York and there was no snow. The weather was very nice, which is not typical for December weather.
Needing
I need (two) 18 inch or 19 inch ring lights. Earlier in the year, I purchased a ring light off of Instagram and ended up being so disappointed. The ring light ended up being a mini ring light for your desk or vanity from the UK.
When I attempted to return it, I was told I would have to pay the shipping fees and restocking fees which mean I would have lost all of my money. As a result, I decided to keep it. It’s been helping to get the job done, but it is definitely time to upgrade the equipment.
Listening
For the past few weeks, I have had Adele 25 on repeat, on either my Crosley record player, or on Spotify. During the holidays, I simply can’t get enough of the album.
Mood
I feel pretty good and relaxed. I Miss You by Adele was just playing and I have an Aromatherapy Positivity candle burning. It’s Grapefruit and Bergamot, and smells really lovely.
Thinking
I would love to include photos of my desk area right now, but it’s almost midnight and I really don’t think the mini ring light is going to do the trick this evening. So, we’ll save those photos for another day when I can grab some beautiful and natural lighting.
Wanting
Not only am I needing new ring lights, but I am also wanting some other upgrades such as a new microphone and Macbook or laptop. I’m ready to kick off some Youtube videos to embed into these blog posts. What do you think about that?
