Setting the Mood: Auld Lang Syne

Bad news? It’s Monday. Good news? It’s the last Monday you will have to slog through in 2013. I have mixed emotions when it comes to New Year’s Eve- mostly because of the pressure that people put on one night (the last night) of the year. In my personal/professional experience, the more weight put on the night, the more disappointing it usually turns out to be. Pretty sure FOMO reaches its peak every year on this day. I actually can’t recall the last December 31st that was drama free and TV movie perfect- although I did spend last year in West Virginia with my mom in a vintage sweatshirt jumpsuit and a crown. That was pretty fabulous. If you’re looking for a foolproof recipe for a festive NYE, try this: something sparkly + something bubbly+ people you love = a happy new year.
