New Year's Resolutions - Make One Change
Posted by Bess Heitner on 15th Dec 2024
A New Year's Resolution is something that goes in one year and out the next!
Instead of sweeping goals, why not make one small change?
BE MORE COLORFUL
Dont be afraid of color! If you’re an “earth” or “water” person, you can still perk up your palette with a blast of cobalt, a pop of red, or a touch of green. Accessories like a bold clutch, a bright necklace, or colorful earrings transform anything in your wardrobe. Some suggestions...
BE MORE ORGANIZED
Is your closet crammed with stuff you never wear? Do you have brand new purchases that you pull out, try on, and put back? Try this: pin a piece of paper to every item you own. After six months, if it's still "tagged" that's a sign it isn't working and it's time to resell, discard or donate.
- When it comes to your jewelry, do you spend hours searching for a missing earring, bracelet or necklace?
- Store the same toned necklaces in clear boxes.
- Put earring-bracelet-necklace combos you like in a clear plastic stand for easy access
- Hang your favorite necklaces and earrings on a stand you can see first thing.
- Two caveats: store jewelry strung on silk flat to prevent stretching; store pearls in cloth to let them breathe and keep their lustre

Aquamarine, March’s Magnificent Birthstone
The translucent, elegant Aquamarine is one of my favorite gemstones. Its rich understated splendor holds its own against any gem, and its cool glow enhances other stones special qualities.
