Yay for the first IN LOVE post of 2013! I’m not going to lie – I missed starting my Monday’s off with this kind of inspiration. I’m so happy that artsocial and I are continuing this series this year. Today I’m sharing some snippets of my 2013 mission. Let’s dive in shall we?
one: Every mission should start out with cute accessories. I’ve had my eye on these ban.do color blocked clips for quite some time now. Regardless of what I do with my hair in 2013 I’m making it a point to accessorize! Plus they fit with my color scheme – no surprise here – it’s black and white.
two: I’m a big fan of jewelry and when I saw these Of Matter triangular studs I fell in love. 2013 is the year of simplistic/classic jewelry for this gal.
three: I’m dubbing 2013 the year where I amp up on my creative outlets. I’m a huge fan of painting and I’m planning on building up the art collection in our apartment with Christie Jones originals. Don’t worry – I’ll take pictures of them!
four: Organization is my goal – I create more when I’m in an organized space. My office, bedroom, kitchen, closets – you name it, I’m going to attack each room. The excuse that we just moved in doesn’t really work anymore [we've been here for 7 months] and it’s time to get things in tip-top shape. I’m drooling over this minimalistic desk organizer.
five: I’m not excited about this but in 2013 I need to get my sleep schedule situated, I’m a perpetual snoozer. I am NOT a morning person and I hate getting outta bed. I’m thinking this sleek iPhone alarm clock dock would help me bust a move…but it doesn’t fit the iPhone 5…back to the drawing board.
six: How I love writing in new journals. This year I want to finish my children’s book [yes, I've been writing a children's book!] and get into the habit of writing every single day. Even on my “off-blogging days”.
seven: Oh to have less and do more. This is one of my goals. I’m trying to be content with less. Utilize what I have and anything “new” that I purchase I want it to be intentional. Plus keep with the black and white theme that I started on last year.
What are you working on for 2013?

Number seven “Have Less. Do More.” has captured my heart and is pretty much what I’m working toward. I know I don’t need half the things in my house. I want to simplify, no, I need to simplify!
BTW, check out my post tomorrow (Tuesday) morning, I think you’ll like it!
Emily I’ve been contemplating this concept for over a year. Last year we downsized, got rid of a ton of furniture, reevaluated our spending habits and cut back a lot. This year I’m pumped to go even further. I honestly feel way more free with less things.
That’s what I want… to feel free!
Yeah – you can totally work on it! :) I know I am!
Always love your black and white picks Christie :) and by any chance do you need a book designer? ;)
Thanks Kate, I’m kinda obsessed with black and white. My goal is to be able to have my house (and wardrobe) be fluid. Take one vase from the living room and put it into the bathroom and have it still work! And omg I do need a book designer and think you would be PERFECT for the project. I’ll email you when I get further along!
