2020 is on the horizon and as we step into a brand new year, there’s a lot that we are anticipating. Enrolling in a fresh new decade that resonates an auspicious numerical repetition- 2020 may even suggest that we’re seeking consistency from the forthcoming twelve months. December is a month of decisions; we all plan to put a perfect end to the year behind us and start a brand-new one with positive changes and meaningful purposes in our lives. There’s no one way to give it a memorable kickstart; whether partying, making a wish when the clock strikes midnight or writing a checklist of the things you wish to complete before the year ends; we all want to make it worthy. From fashion forecasting to resolution ideas and nifty little suggestions, we’ve created notes for you to make 2020 one heck of a year!
Reflect & Reset
Making resolutions is the cult new year tradition. Before we add a new one to our existing list, it’s ideal to reflect our actions and reset the goals. Put yourself on the top of your to-do list. Whether it’s analyzing your health, shopping habits, your approach to work or even just mundane things, if you’re seeking improvement or a change in your pattern, addressing the shortcomings is a better way forward. You can zen out and really enjoy the fact that you’re channelling good efforts for yourself. And that way you’ll unleash a new potential inside you!
Upgrade your style

As we leave a glamour-studded fashion year behind, the new one welcomes a slew of fresh trends to covet. We’re expecting a few comebacks while newcomers of 2020 will take over globally. The Pantone colour of the year-Classic Blue is in the headlines for polarizing the other colour du jour. So, you can be unapologetic about the blues of your closet. Besides, Tribal Patterns will make a comeback from the indie cool age while timeless Florals will go big and bold with hints of shimmer. Shining alongside the sensational Neons would be enriched tints of marigold yellow for summery adventures. You can get flirty with polka dot or bring sexy back from the ’80s with holographic metallics; step into 2020 flexing your style sensibilities. With such an eccentric trend glossary, experimenting should be on the top of your fashion resolution list!
Make a promise
It could be cutting your screen time and socializing IRL or going away to an off-the-grid locale that you’ve been longing to explore, make a little promise to cheer up your spirit. Promises to self are worth it and make efforts for yourself; that’s how you will become the best version of yourself and a force to be reckoned with. Start making your happiness a daily priority if not first, promise to let go of self-limiting behaviours and back them with devoted actions. You’ll realize you resonate the most with your own promises than anyone else’s and it’s as satisfying as fulfilling a promise to any other significant person. Dedicate the first page of your 2020 diary to a ‘note to self’.
Care for your skin
Resolve to worship your skin this year. Make a skincare checklist and tick off the boxes every night. To begin with, it could be as simple as cleansing and moisturizing your skin every night. If not already, getting your beauty sleep and staying hydrated should be followed dedicatedly. Invest and include organic beauty essentials to your vanity. Staying dedicated to a night and day skin care regime will only ensure that you glow through 2020 and beyond!
Take a conscious step

Learn to lead with conscious. Even though we’re entering a new decade, we’re not leaving behind our existing concerns. Practise the mantra of ‘Look good, feel good and do good’. Positive vibes and conscious mind- your deeds are a true reflection of your personality. From investing in a sustainable wardrobe to reviving art and supporting artisans, you can add purpose with your efforts. It could also be addressing those little but alarming issues with your habits like spontaneous shopping or sleeping patterns; your thoughtful steps can add more value to your 2020 year in more than one ways.
