Tis the time to make goals for the new year coming! Goals for the new year include many areas of our life. The common areas we usually think of are health, money and work, relationships, community service and shedding bad habits. Age doesn’t matter. Life is a constant process of growth and self-improvement.
I never thought about creating style goals until I read Angie Cox’s blog You Look Fab. Inspired by Angie, I made a list of style goals the last two years. You might like to make some style goals of your own, if you don’t already.
These are some of my style goals, past and future:

A smile is always the best thing you can wear of course, but I’ve compiled a list of what I consider essential pieces for a versatile wardrobe. Age doesn’t matter.

I was recently contacted by Reviews.com about their latest tests to find the best sunscreens. I am not being compensated for this post, but if you purchase anything through links on this page I may receive a small percentage (enough to boost my spirits!)

- Best for Sensitive Skin
- Best for Face, and
- Best for Physical Activity.

We also need the sun for vitamin D. But it’s important to make sure we’re not overdoing it, so protection against too much sun is important for balance.
I especially love this review because the winning products are safe for sensitive skin, and contain natural and organic ingredients.

Since Marie Kondo’s book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: the Japanese art of decluttering and organizing sold over eight million copies in over 40 countries and stayed on the New York Times best-selling list for so long, it’s obvious that people around the world are plagued by clutter. I assume age doesn’t matter because clearing clutter is an ongoing situation.

I’ve created a checklist for you of what you need to have on hand for Spring and Summer in order to create outfits for every occasion. Age doesn’t matter because all of these items are classic and basic pieces. They will make it easy for you to make more outfits out of what you have. To make them fun as well as useful, check out what is trending. Wearing something new and modern makes you look young.
Maybe you already have all or most of these essentials. If not, April is the time of year when spring clothing is on sale. So it’s a good time to fill in gaps in your warm-weather wardrobe, or upgrade things that are wearing out (or wearing out their welcome).
