My New Years Resolution is to take leaps of faith and write more.
Love the bag!
New Year Resolution: do more with less!

my resolution is to be more focused.
My New Year's Resolution is to stop buying food at the crapeteria at school (I'm a teacher and they've got these cookies that would make you weep). Just think of all the lovely, healthy snacks I could pack in the stunner of a bag!

I'm still working on last year's resolution ... to grow my hair out for locks of love.

one of my new years intentions is to get outside more! i often coup myself up working but find it so refreshing and inspiring to take a little time outside every day.
My resolution is more more more. So many resolutions are about less and denying and negative. I plan on doing more of everything I love, more blogging, more creating, more time with my family and more opportunities to wear red lipstick!

Love the yellow interior! My new years resolution is to work hard so in the near future I can work for myself.

design something daily.
Resolution? I'm working to be continually reflect on the opportunities and wonderful things I have, and do my best to share what I have with others.
Let go of the past. Be in the Present. And breathe 2011 in with a smile. - My Mantra for 2011
This year my resolution has nothing to do with knocking a bad habit, or adding a new one to my life. This year I resolve to keep moving forward, one foot in front of the other. Keep doing what I'm doing to be the happiest and healthiest me!
So my resolution is a little silly: floss my teeth! This is desperately needed, despite the fact that both my best friends' parents are dentists, and he has been bugging me about this since I was 7. Seriously, the dude won't let go.
PLEASE! Give me! Want! My resolution for this year is to worry less and do more!

<3 Leigh
i guess for me 2011 is going to be the year of letting my creativity flow and do all the things i've always planned but never did...like sewing the clothes i sketched, repainting my room, buying crazy vintage jewelry i'm always too shy to wear (but i'd die to be brave enough to), etc. It's going to be a very crafty and busy year!
My new years resolution is to wear stripes. Only stripes. Every day.

My New Year's resolution is to make this year better than the last and to find the joy in every day. It's always there, it just needs to be recognized.
Last year I finally, at 28, decided to do things that I really wanted to do with people I really wanted to do them with. Through this, integrity, a great new job, & a new apartment, I feel like 'me'....and FREE!!!
My resolution is to continue to allow myself to be happy & myself. It's exhilarating.
My news years resolution is to keep in touch with my cousin throughout the year. I missed her too much in 2010!
My new years resolution is to keep in touch with my cousin. I missed her too much in 2010.
I have resolved to get dressed every day. No more writing all day in my pjs!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog and this bag.
2011 is not about resolution but about having the courage to do what I love. take the risk. make the jump. Hopefully with a beautiful stripped bag in hand...
My New Year's resolution is to keep a one-line-a-day journal (since a past resolution to write a normal journal everyday failed. Miserably.). My second resolution is to make time not only for the important things, but some unimportant ones every week. Mix some silliness in with my daily plans!
Judging from my reaction to this bag, my New Year's rezzie is to control my over-the-top reactions to gorgeous things like striped canvas-and-leather bags.
If I win this thing, I'll forgive the universe for not letting me win last night's MegaMillions.
To give up sugar and dairy products!
instead of counting the days...make each day count!
thanks for hosting this giveaway :)
My New Year's resolution is to stop gossiping!
Adorable bag! Stripes make me happy. My resolution for each day, is to live in the now as much as possible.
Completely obsessed Bri!!!

That bag would make any work day cheerful! I would imagine my laptop would fit beautifully in that striped gorgeous purse!
This year I have 9, yes, 9, new year's resolutions. The most important, however, is to be happy. A resolution supported by the other 8 resolutions. Happiness is underrated, and I intend to make it the new 'black', if you will.

rachisordinarilyurbane@gmail.com
Love this bag! My New Years resolution is to stay true to myself.
My one and only resolution... stop procrastinating. It is so easy for me to get sucked into my favorite blogs, Etsy, etc. and spend way longer than I should just browsing around. Before you know it half the day is gone and you're still in your jammies. But I've never done that. *whistles* ;)

Live life to the fullest in 2011!
My new years resolution?
it's kind of scary, but i am attempting to not purchase any clothes in 2011. but i'm looking forward to clothes swap parties and looking at more wardrobe more creatively!
Advance to pointe in ballet!
I've got 3 resolutions, and thankfully they're all doable.
1) whatever I did right last year, keep doing
2)take a photo every day in 2011
3)read a book a month
My New years resolution is to continue in my quest to live life in the moment. Taking time to come back to where I am, what I feel and what is around me. I can not change the past, and I will never own the future, all i have is now. So my goal is to ask my self. "how does now feel? " more often.
and also I would really like to get a Motorcycle Licence.
Ooooo! I like!
New year resolutions, top 3:
1. Run a 5K
2. Write on my journal everyday
3. Take a watercolor class
I have 3 very doable resolutions. There are as follows:
1)whatever it is that I did well last year, keep doing it
2) take a photo every day
3) read a book a month
Cheers,
Alicia
P.s.- This bag has me written all over it.
I resolve to not be a bitch and eat more cake.
1)keep doing what I did well last year
2) take a photo each day
3) read a book a month
my New Year's resolution is to cut my caffein intake...instead of 5 lattes, maybe I'll cut it down to four. cute bag by the way!
The bag is so nice! I must resolve to get better organized.
My resolution is to simply simplify my life.
... starting with this bag.

My New Year's resolution is to blog daily again. I started my new design finds blog on my birthday a few days ago! And also to follow through on my other creative pursuits, the blog being one of them.
http://two-and-twenty.blogspot.com/
My resolution is to embrace the workaholic side of me but to see more of the innocent fun-loving side.
well, dang, this a fabulous start for your first giveaway. My resolution, which i'd actually yet to announce but will likely become the dominating topic on the blog, is a 3 month shopping hiatus! Nothing beyond essentials until April 1. Which is why winning this bag would be so great because it's only day 5 and I'm already dying! I think I have to cancel all mags and catalogs and promo emails to make it through!
One of my many New Years resolutions is to keep my inbox at zero! Gotta keep up with the important emails and delete/unsubscribe/read in a timely manner those mailing lists that are bogging me down!
This bag would be perfect as I tote a book around to my favorite local coffee shop. Reading more books is my resolution :)
My new years resolutions: think positive thoughts, tell people I love them more often & floss everyday!
I always break my resolution every year but nevertheless I make sure i have a fat wallet and thin body for my yearly fashion craze. That bag would flare up my days.
Thanks so much for the lovely and inspiring blog. I adore this bag. I can already see a day at the beach with it, or with my computer in it at school.
My favorite New Years resolution is to create something everyday. I am well on my way to achieving that goal. Since new years I have taught myself to knit. I baked bread. Added an inspiration wall to my art room. Sewn pillows cases to match my couch and started a liner for my coat. I only tell you all of this because you have helped motivate me to create beautiful things. Thank you.
My new years resolution is to take more photos and go after my goal to get a job in london!
ooohhhhh aaaaawwww. My Resolution: to be a better girlfriend to my husband!!!!!
If I don't win the bag, I might have a new new years resolution, to buy it :)
My current new years resolutions:
- Finish all the unread books on my shelf before buying new ones
- Have date night with my boyfriend at least once a week.
whuatt? resolution? here is my non-resolution: keeping the same fast pace of life like 2010. so many new faces, beautiful places and wonderful experiences... hurray!!
Cutie, that bag as well as the others @Quote!
Inspired by the City Sage, made a list of non-goals (http://www.annesage.com/blog/2010/12/new-years-non-goals.html)
and intentions for 2011 (http://www.annesage.com/blog/2011/01/resolutions-2011.html);
my resolution is to do this every now and then as to not get lost in all the nonsensical things life throws at us each day.
To name a few non-commitmens:
i promised to keep rockin' my world both business and pleasure in 2011
Intensions, then:
a glass of water every morning, every night
muffle the soundwaves, but do not mute!
Enjoy :)
