While I had planned to do this, once a month, September mood board was the first and last one of 2017.  And now, I'm bringing you the first one of twelve.

Moodboard has always been my favorite way to set my mind on a goal. Using them since college, I like to put on display the different texture and color scheme. Having them out, I can easily get inspired, keeping the creative flow going.

The month of January, it's all about a fresh start. Keeping thing simple will help set out an intention for the months coming. I hope your year has started on the bright side as it has for me.

dear 2017.

What a year you've been. This past year was all over the place - impossible for me to describe how crazy it all was. From feeling, at my very best to the lowest I've ever felt; this is how 2017 went down for me.

At the very beginning, I had set myself a few goals I wanted to accomplish. While I managed to finish a few of those, the rest went tumbling down which somehow made, me, tumble down with it. And it scared me.

Days turned into weeks and without me noticing, became months. I pretty much felt unmotivated to do anything else but shut myself and my mind. That was until something clicked and slowly, my old-self started to come through. I was able to make myself a priority, which I'm still learning to apply in every aspect of my life. So far, this has been ground-breaking for me.

I took care of myself, worked out regularly and started eating healthy again. I even went for the big chop. I never had my hair this short, and it felt good to make a change, as big as this.

And when I felt like everything was turning in the right direction, you threw at me another curveball. I hurt myself at work, and it all went down, again. This time around, I was able to keep, what I had been working on, in check.

In the end, 2017, you've been a learning year. You thought me how to be strong, to put myself in front and do what makes me happy. And with that, I bid you farewell and welcome 2018 with open arms, knowing that this year, it will be for the best.

Transition.

While it might be summer, the chill mornings have made their appearance. It could be difficult when your morning seems like autumn while your evening is a beautiful day in summer. What else to do than slowly make your transition into your fall wardrobe.

When it comes to color, any dark color gets my attention. From an evergreen or a burgundy color, my eyes get drawn to it. There is a beauty about how it can complement with any color will giving a deep and mysterious look to it. I decided to tackle, once again, the burgundy color as it has always been one of my favorites colors.

A few weeks before I got hurt, I got really into working out. I felt like it was a time where I concentrated on myself and forgot everything around me. It gave me a way to disconnect of my problems or the simple fact that I would let go of any anxiety I could have.

Waiting to get better, I like to search for new finds to add to my slowly but growing workout wear. There is something about how you feel in your clothes that make you push a little harder.

DO YOU HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATION OR FAVORITE WORKOUT WEAR?
