A Low-Key NYE

happy last day of 2014! 
i’ve never been one for fancy NYE parties or big celebrations – i prefer a cozy night at home watching the countdown on TV and snacking on some good eats in my sweatpants. i mean, really, is there a better way to kick off a new year? not to me! this new years eve will be spent with mike and some friends in Wisconsin for a little getaway. we’re looking forward to trying some new Pinterest recipes, crafting up some tasty drinks, and probably playing a card game or two. every year, it gets more and more difficult to make it past midnight. something about forcing myself to stay awake makes me even more tired – does anyone else experience that? i’m hoping that it will be a bit easier this year, especially since we’ll have other people around to stay up with πŸ˜‰ 
i’m looking forward to a whole new year! there’s already plenty of things planned for 2015 that i’m looking forward to, so i think it will be a good one! 
happy new year, friends! hope you have a great time celebrating! thanks for spending 2014 with me πŸ™‚
by the way, this tote bag is the perfect carry-on/quick getaway bag. it will be getting plenty of use in the new year, that is for sure.

    Gorgeous scarf! I've debated buying that sole society bag so many times, but always end up holding off in favor of waiting to buy an expensive leather version like fossil's. Soo tempting though! Love how you styled it!
