 Hi everyone today I'll be discussing everything you need to know about New Years Resolutions, and my personal opinions on resolutions. What is a resolution Merriam-Webster dictionary describes a resolution as, "a promise to do something differently in the new year Her New Year's resolution is to exercise regularly" (Merriam-Webster). This definition perfectly describes what a resolution is. A resolution is something that is different depending on you, and what your own personal goals are.  The types of resolutions In my opinion there are 2 types of resolutions there are mental resolutions and there are physical resolutions. Mental resolutions are resolutions created by people to improve their mental health, if that makes sense. For example a mental resolution could be thinking more positively or being more optimistic. Physical resolutions are resolutions created by people to improve for their physical appearance or the physical space around them. For examp...

 Hi everyone today I'll be discussing how to find your aesthetic or individual style.  1. The Fit of Clothes The first thing that determines your aesthetic is how you want your clothing to fit for example do you like the fit of skinny jeans, baggy jeans, or flare jeans on your body. I prefer mom jeans on my body instead of a skinny jean fit. Also do you prefer your tops to fit tighter or baggy, for me I like a mix of both. How you like clothes to fit your body is big part of finding your style/aesthetic because, your clothing will be the base of your style.   (source: 7esl.com) 2.
