Yellow For Good Luck


It has been said that wearing yellow on New Years Eve is meant to bring happiness and prosperity for the upcoming year. I remember as a child my mother telling us to pick something yellow to wear on New Years Eve and that idea has sorta stuck with me throughout all of these years. Now a days I don't wear yellow as a main colour for my new years eve outfit but I do have something yellow on me on New Years weather it be in the form of gold, pompoms on my purse, underwear, or socks there is always something yellow on my person. With that in mind I thought it would be appropriate for my first outfit post of 2017 to be yellow! For this look I wore this Mustard yellow blouse with these gorgeous ruffles along the buttons and I paired it with a pleated skirt of the same colour. I love wearing matching separates I think its such a fun way to wear  colour, it has the same effect as wearing a knit sweater with the same coloured jacket. To add some interest I added this houndstooth print coat which makes any outfit look more fashionable because of the loud print (and you guys know how much i love houndstooth). For some warmth I added this black (faux) fur hat which adds a sort of elegance to the outfit. I felt slightly like a palace guard while wearing it but I love it anyway !

As for my New Year celebration I just went to dinner with my boyfriend and my family, we then walked around looking at the pretty Christmas lights in the city and finished the night off by watching the fireworks at Nathan phillips square ! If you want to see my vlog from the night click here ! I had an amazing time, it was pretty low key compared to what people usually do on new years but it was a great night. I hope you had an amazing new years eve ! and an amazing new year to come. This year I plan on surrounding myself with positive energy, I am a strong believer that what you put out into the world is what you'll get back. If you put out Negative energy/thoughts into the world you will see the world in a much darker light than it really is. By putting out positive vibes you will see the world as a much happier place. Even in a difficult situation you can choose to be miserable about it or you can find the positive aspect of the situation so make it a bit better. I have always been a positive person but in 2017 I am going to make a point to surround myself with people who also choose to see the positives in life and not dwell on the negatives. I also plan on venturing out of my comfort zone a lot this year, I find that I play it safe most of the time and this year I want to experience new things not only fashion wise but also creatively (thought my blog and youtube) and in life experiences. Can't wait to see what the new year brings!  What are your new years resolutions??

  1. I've never heard about wearing yellow on NYE, but I love the idea! I'll have to remember it for this year. Your NYE sounds like it was lovely, and this outfit is seriously gorgeous! I adore your style.

    Happy new year! I hope 2017 treats you well!
