‘…I Watched It Begin Again’

Casually Chic by Monique

Congrats on making it through your first full week of twenty-fifteen! Hopefully you got through your to-do lists and had a chance to relax and enjoy the Polar Vortex! Unfortunately, I was dealing with a pesky WiFi situation and a new project at work that set me back from twenty-fifteen goals {especially blogging … I am so sorry about that!}. So, I am looking at today as another chance to ‘Begin Again’ and begin achieving my new goals!

Goals :

I won’t go into too much detail, but in twenty-fifteen I will be focusing on writing Casually Chic by Monique as lifestyle blog. Which means consistent columns such as Foodie Fridays, DIY’s, Timeless Tuesdays, and Memoirs from Monique … along with outfit posts {I would love to hear any specific topics you would like to see}. For starters, you can now join the Chic Community and receive a Weekly Newsletter to your inbox to ensure you never miss a post {click the link or the image in the sidebar}!!

My Look:

I have been living in this outfit over the holidays and through-out the Polar Vortex we are experiencing! Not only is this my all time favorite winter sweater … I can’t get enough of this BF Flannel! I wear it all of the time {for example} so when I see Paolo wear his own shirt, it catches me off guard. In my head, I am thinking … hey that’s mine, oh wait .. no it isn’t! I guess it makes sense that I would live in an outfit that incorporates my favorite jeans and booties too. I love this laid back, casual-chic, comfortable style!

    I think a restart to 2015 is a-okay, friend, and I love the sounds of what you have in store for CCBM this year. I’ll be following right along!
