Painting by Soo Hyun.

This dreadful winter weather has me feeling all shades of drab, lackluster, blue and blah. My skin is drier than the Mojave, my attitude is in need of a serious adjustment, and (gasp!) black has become my new signature color (but striped and combo’d with a dazzled bib necklace of course). My resolution for a Happy New You begins now as I dig through my closet for the brightest coat I own, and I’ll be tossing back some vitamin D3 in hopes of a more cheerful tomorrow!  If the winter woe has got you down and stressed out too, then I’ve got some calming solutions for you. Clear out the medicine cabinet and bust out the workout gear for optimal results! If nothing else seems to kick-start our cold hearts, let’s just say we’re having a “major Black Swan moment” and call it good for now.
