2025: A Brand-New Chapter
Happy New Year, clients and friends!
There’s something magical about the fresh energy that comes with the start of a new year. For me, it’s an opportunity to pause, reflect, and refocus. As someone who thrives on setting goals, this time of year encourages me to reassess my actions, rethink my strategy, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
I’ve shared this perspective before, but it’s worth repeating: life consists of two parts.
1. The things we cannot control.
2. The things we can control.
I choose to put my time and energy into what I can control, and it’s this focus that guides me every day.
Over the holidays, I stepped away to slow down and give myself space to reflect. Sometimes, you have to leave the island to truly see it. I wanted to return in 2025 with a clearer understanding of who I am, what I want, and where I’m heading. This reset was exactly what I needed to enter the new year, feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to make it meaningful.
This year, I’ve committed to working on several areas of my life, and one of them is my own wardrobe. I believe how we dress is an extension of who we are—and with each new year, we can realign our style with the best version of ourselves. Here are some steps to help you refresh your wardrobe for 2025:
Simple Steps to Refresh Your Style for the New Year
1. Reflect on your favorite outfits from 2024.
Look back at photos of outfits you wore last year. Which ones made you feel confident and which didn’t? Why? Use these insights to identify what works for you and avoid repeating past mistakes.
2. Organize your closet.
A cluttered closet can make getting dressed overwhelming, no matter how great your pieces are. Take the time to organize your wardrobe so everything is easy to see and access. When your space feels intentional, your mornings will feel smoother, too.
3. Prioritize seasonal pieces.
Make sure the clothes and accessories that suit the current weather are front and center. For instance, here in New England, I’ve moved my scarves, boots, and winter coats to the most accessible spots in my closet so I don’t overlook them during the chilly months.
4. Express your authentic self.
Take a moment to reflect on what inspires you, what drives you, and what makes you unique. How can you translate your personality into your outfits? The best outfit is the one that feels like an extension of you. When you embrace your authenticity, you radiate confidence and power.
Step Into 2025 With Intention
As we step into this new chapter, I wish you a year filled with joy, happy tears, good health, and, above all, love. Take this opportunity to reinvent yourself, grow, and show up as your best version.
Remember, your wardrobe is more than just clothes—it’s a reflection of your journey and your story. If you need guidance along the way, I’m here to help.
Cheers to 2025 and to a year of embracing everything that makes you uniquely you!
