My best advice when organzing

Ahhhh new year much organization. 

Let's be honest we all make this wild assumption and goal to get as clean as we can in the new year. I a no exception I love being clean and organized. I have spent the majority of this week cleaning, throwing and re-organizing. I even purchased new furniture it's a new year and why should we not feel confident in our spaces? I mean confidence equals success and more ideas! At least if you ask me that's what I believe the purpose is! 

So today I decided to round up some of my very favorite products that I own and use every day to help with the organization! 

Why I love Acrylic...
I love acrylic organizers I actually ordered this awesome makeup storage one! It really helped me with getting my crap together and helped me to get rid of what I didn't need when it came to makeup! Not only that but the hangers above I use on my rack and I LOVE.  One of my biggest recommendations is finding stuff that complements one's decor! And these guys are perfect to own in general it makes it so easy to find the pieces you want and the pieces you need to get you out of the door.

 What else do I love? 
Closet organization... I have a very small closet so I turn to getting a lot in a small space. That is an understatement. I depend on folding knits, storage and pure organization to get my stuff where it needs to go!

Finally the PURGE: 

YA you heard me! I love love love throwing out unnecessary things. Especially when it comes to makeup! Because truthfully I never knew how much crap I had and nothing was more refreshing then when I threw half of it away and let the new in! So that is some food for thought on the idea of PURGING. It welcomes in the new and lets go of the old! 

Wishing you all a wonderful Friday and the best weekend to the start of the new year!!!

2018 #Goals Goals GOALS

I am a pure set in her way kinda girl that believes in pure goals. In college we learn goal setting from day one! As a young millennial, I feel as though we are in one of the most competitive generations ever. Blogging, job search, internship and even every day can seem like a true challenge and competition. Truthfully I feel it is this way because of the way we set our goals. I'm also the first to admit that I HATE setting goals for the new year. I feel as though I can follow through with them and then I fail miserably. 

However turning 21 last year and feeling like I can balance wayyyyy too much in life where as in previous years I could not. I felt like opening up about my goals. 

Getting to that 10K 

YA you heard me! One thing I have a major goal of is finally hitting that magic number. I know that so many people have told me that hitting that number is the golden ticket and then after that it's easy cruising. Truthfully I just want to prove to myself! Last year in the new year I had 2k I grew a dramatic 6K. Mindblown when Connor and myself did the math, not only that but it made me really proud! I want to reach this goal I pray I can! 

Get that job

Many bloggers want to make a livelihood off blogging. I LOVE blogging but I am the first to admit to you there is in fact, an oversaturated market of bloggers. Constantly competing to be the best and to get to the golden pot. I am in college and I am in fact excited to be offered that first job. I have worked and balanced so much for three years and with a year until graduation, I am pumped to say I want that job and or internship. My main goal is to score a job that I LOVE and or enjoy and if that fails well I have backups! 

Speaking of backups I want to explore.... Opening a Business 

 Ya, I have thought out this for a few times throughout 2017! I really want to open something I know what I want to do and where I want to do it and why. I can not believe how well received this has been thought-out the community. Telling people how I have thought about this it makes them excited. I am super open to this idea, I have even opened up a business plan. 

Finally, explore #BBG 

I have heard so many good things about this program! I have seen so many before and after's and I would love to explore this option. I feel like I need an outlet more to help with my stress and everyday life. I spend so much time running around, I want to take 28 minutes out of my day to workout and train and to eat more properly! I will check back in! 

Blog Theories and Predictions for 2018

Happy New year Everyone! 

We are back from the holiday vacation and I am kinda excited to be back and to start the new year. 2017 was so good to me, I mean so good to me. I am excited to see where 2018 personally takes me and I am excited to see where this outlet is going to take me. I know that today and yesterday you saw around the web all these announcements from these bloggers. Unfortunately, you are not going to hear those from me. I feel like I am personally content with my content, ideas and my blog as a whole. 

However, I do have some ideas of change as humans we have to keep evolving. I want to welcome some ideas for change for the blog, along with more career advice/Internship advice. Along with more lifestyle, decor and personal. Mostly I want to bring more of these ideas to the light. Even include how I juggle it all without losing my sanity.

So this week I decided to make a point to discuss my goals my resolutions and ways I am sticking to it here and throughout 2018. 

I feel like in 2017 I sorta found my voice on here and on social media. I do not want to leave that voice behind. To me expressing my voice on this little outlet of the internet is the most important thing to me. I want to continue to strive to bring you content you want to see! I don't want to dedicate a post to what "you want to see" or have you take a poll because let's be honest, do you really want to answer those questions? And honestly, do you care?? 

I am excited to ring in the new year and to continue to ring in another successful year here on Coffee And  A Blonde. Without you, this would never ever be possible.
