Leather Sleeves and New Year’s Thoughts

 

It’s the first day back to work in the new year (not counting the video I shot for you guys last night) and it’s got me feeling some type of way.

I don’t want to get sappy or too personal on you guys, but I feel like since it’s a new year and a clean slate I will let you in on a few things.

First, I don’t really get on the resolutions bandwagon, but this year I am feeling extra motivated to make some changes.

In my personal life I have been dealing with some reoccurring medical issues that have been haunting me for about 2 years now. It is actually something I’ve been dealing with since 2007 that I overcame but I am back dealing with again. I wrote a blog post about it many years ago after I was better but unfortunately I am back dealing with it again. (It’s nothing life threatening, but more of a nuisance than anything else.) I feel like this is the year I am going to overcome it once again.

The reason I am mentioning this is because we will all deal with things that are hard, this is inevitable. But I think being positive in the face of adversity is the key to getting through it and that’s what I am taking into this new year.

Here on Glam Latte I am bringing you some new things for 2016. The travel vertical is going to grow and expand and I plan on taking you guys with me as I explore new places and try new things. I am also planning on doing a blog tips feature where I will share some advice and tips and tricks I have learned over the years.

As for this look, I wore this in San Francisco as you can see from the beautiful Golden Gate Bridge behind me. I loved how cozy yet functional this look was. The booties are comfy for walking around the city, yet the python and studded detail make them really edgy and chic. The backpack is one of my favorite bags this season and I’ve literally been using it every day since I got it. It carries everything, including my water bottle. The leather sleeves on this belted jacket just add that extra something that make it so much more than just another black jacket and this beanie…well it might just be my favorite beanie of all time.
