Wow - 2010 has been a crazy, fun-filled roller coaster ride. Looking back, I've received more blessings than I could have imagined and I learned lessons beyond compare. I played in the ocean, watched supermodels in their natural habitat, shared an elevator with an icon, got Gaga'd for my birthday, did the makeup for a designer's lookbook, received my first facial (really!), sailed around Manhattan with shirtless male models (again, really!), shared way too much, hosted my first event at Fashion's Night Out, had a major fashion orgasm, was a panelist on BlogHer's first fashion panel and was blessed to be in the holiday issue of Ladies' Home Journal.

In 2010 I excelled at my job & I left to work on Style IT full time. I made amazing friends and I lost more than I'd like to admit. I ran my mouth and I kept great secrets. I met celebrities, designers, icons and idols and I learned who they truly are. I loved myself and learned that not everyone accepts my size. I felt embraced by blogging community and ostracized by others. Style IT celebrated it's 4th birthday and I celebrated my 27th.

In 2011, I am committing to those who have stuck by me the most - that means YOU, whoever is reading this. In a strange way, you've been the most honest and the most loyal. You share feedback, both good and bad. You have been there when I was down and you've been there when I was up. I hope that most importantly, you'll join me in 2011. I have special plans for you!

I can't thank you enough for joining me on this crazy journey - and I hope that I've given you half of all that you've given me.

Here's to peace, love & style in 2011!

xoxo
