How to keep your News Years Resolution and look great doing it!

1. Lose Weight
Experts say to work out at least 3 times a week for 20 minutes. If you are trying to lose a lot of weight than work out 5 times a week. I suggest getting an exercise journal (to track your progress and exercise regiment), a good pair of sneakers, and a charm! Yes, a charm! A charm can remind you of your resolution. You can find many charms that are geared towards exercising! I found a lovely sterling silver exercise bike charm by Rembrandt Charms for $28.00.

2. Managing your debt
If you are debt, I suggest that you developing a Budget. You cannot control your debt without knowing where your money is going. The next step is to contact your creditors and set up a payment plan. You can reduce your payments to a more manageable rate. This can be applied to car payments and home loan payments.

If your accounts have been turned over to a debt collector, than know your rights. A debt collector may not call you before 8 a.m., after 9 p.m., or while you’re at work if the collector knows that your employer doesn’t approve of the calls. Collectors may not harass you, lie, or use unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. Creditors must honor a written request from you to stop further contact.

I suggest that you getting Managing Debt For Dummies. It is a great book for everyone trying to be Debt free.

3. Save Money
We all love to shop but make sure you put a little cash on the side. If you do not trust many of the banks in the world today than go back to the good old piggy bank. Yes, piggy banks are still around and they are very stylish! If you have spare changes from buying those great earrings or that fabulous new shirt, then drop those coins in your new piggy bank. You will be surprise by how much you will have. Try out this piggy bank. This piggy is stylish and so cosmopolitan!

4. Get a better Job

If you are sick of your job, my suggestion is to stick with it. Remember we are in a recession and getting a job is very hard. If you are determine to getting a new job or entering the job market for the first time, I suggest that you various versions of your resume. If you are applying to a job, show your skills/experiences that fit that job. Add relevant job experience for your chosen position. You may need to increase your skills and experiences in your dream job. There are several things you can do to build up your resume such as establishing a network, interning at a company, and/or learning a new skill -such as a language.

There is also other creative ideas to get a job such as a tee with your resume on the back! This is the best way to market yourself in these rough times.

Here is a list of all the merchandise mentioned above:

Make a Jewelry Statement

m.chelle — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 12:07:10 +0000

Let’s face it–pulling off some of the couture looks of the runway isn’t all that easy to do in anyone’s day-to-day work life or personal life. But there is one new runway trend that can be adapted to real life–the jewelry.

The hot new jewelry trend that filled the Spring/Summer 2009 runway shows? Statement jewelry. The runways of Giambattista Valli, Christian Dior, Christian Lacroix, Chanel, Roberto Cavalli, and many more were filled with models wearing ornate and exotic necklaces, chunky bangles and elegant cuff bracelets. This type of look is one you can easily bring to your wardrobe!

On the left is a necklace from Giambattista Valli’s 2009 Spring collection. Gorgeous, isn’t it? Yet I doubt many people would have an occasion to wear such an elaborate piece. A statement necklace like the one on the right by Bounkit for Vivre can give the same strong effect and fits right in with the trend.

The statement necklace above isn’t exactly inexpensive (it normally sells for close to $1000), but it goes without saying that a piece like this is well worth the money. Imagine how much mileage you would get out of a necklace like this during the spring and summer this year!

The bracelets seen on the runway were made of all sorts of materials. Traditional gold and silver is, of course, always in style. But the bold, chunky bangles and cuffs were also offered in more exotic materials–anything from enamel to wood to wool and much more was fair game.

Take a look at these bracelets (from left, Louis Vuitton, Burberry, and The House of Dereon–Beyonce’s fashion line):

You can find some great options for adding a style statement to your wrists this spring and summer–and the choices are pretty much endless. Go with designer pieces like those above if you like, or go vintage and stack some Bakelite bangles on. Try a lacy cuff or a couple of colorful chunky bracelets. Here are a few good sources for finding some new pieces for this season:

Topshop.com has several designer-inspired pieces at not-so-designer prices. Check out my fave, a rhinestone leopard bracelet:

Etsy.com is a treasure trove of handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces. There is such a huge selection of jewelry on this site, so shop when you have some time to browse. Here’s an exotic kingwood bangle I found for only $36:

I also like www.shopkitson.com as a source for bracelets. They carry a wide range of styles, many of which are from well-known jewelry designers such as Alexis Bittar, Rafia & Bossa, and The House of Harlow (Nicole Richie’s line). I especially like this black cuff from Tommassini:
