A new year delivers a new you

By:  Reporter  Nicole Stratton 

As the New Year arrives, it is no wonder people are having high hopes for the year ahead.

The last days of December are coming to an end and people are taking the time to reflect on what they will accomplish in 2015. A well-known trend that comes with the new year in January is getting the dream body about which all of us fantasize. A new year, a new you, correct? Gym owners are way ahead of you! They are preparing for the newbies coming in the new year, even personal trainers are ready to take on the upcoming clients.

With your amazing new physique, it is no wonder the New Year’s trends are showing off that sexy skin. Vogue Magazine is taking the fashion industry by storm this year. The New Year’s upcoming trends are leaving behind the sparkles and taking on an international look. Models are strutting their stuff with kimonos, Japanese karate belts, bold Indian and Hispanic print, and putting a final touch of glam with piercings. To top it all of, everything is becoming cropped. Cropped tops and high-waisted skirts are getting ripped off of the racks. Japanese styles have influenced the most recent trends the most, trying to bring Kawaii influences to the United States. America is trying to take on all different types of cultures to keep the market just as diverse as its citizens. How cool is that?

Looking good is important for the upcoming year, but so is getting healthy mentally and emotionally. This New Year, YouTubers are motivating their fans to take on the new year with full force. Youtuber, Michelle Phan, is encouraging her fans to make Dream Jars. She is asking them to write down all the things that they want to accomplish this upcoming year. It is a perfect way to write down New Year Resolutions and look back on your progress throughout 2015. Tumblr, the number one blog cite, is also encouraging bloggers to create a “365 Day Jar.” This jar will hold motivating quotes, resolutions and body confidence comments. It is no wonder that people are getting motivated for the upcoming year!

In 2015, it is not just a new year with a fresh start, it is a perfect time to take all of those new resolutions and put them to the test. This upcoming year has so many events in store that can challenge you to become the best version of yourself that you can be, whether you are still on that journey or are realizing who you are for the first time. Concerts are taking storm this New Year. Kicking off the year is the Independent Venue Week taking place Jan. 26 – Feb. 1.  Not only is the music industry excited for the New Year, but so are the movie theaters. Most movies in 2015 will be based off of books, even best sellers! Shows are even taking place in the movie theaters’ footsteps. Netflix has become extremely popular, especially since releasing their new anime TV series. Manga books are hitting the shelves in popular book stores, like Barnes and Noble, and the public is loving it! The media is taking all types of international creativity and is bringing the dorkiness out of everyone. This New Year is all about being yourself, whether it is a Pokemon fan or a Starbucksacholic. In 2015, it is all about finding new interests and expressing that through social media, clothes and even school supplies.

The New Year looks promising. Remember, this a new beginning with so many new opportunities.
