Today is the last day of 2024!
Can you believe it?!
The blog turned 10 this year and it marked my return to blogging more
consistently. The last few years I was so focused on life and work and keeping my head above water. This year I realized I needed my favorite creative outlet again.
My work is intense and as I started rediscovering fashion again, I needed a
place to be creative again. The blog and you all were my natural resting
place.
A lot has changed in the creative/influencer/blogger space in three years, and I didn't know if I would even have a
community to come back to. But as I've been getting my bearings again, you've
been here reading, subscribing, following. So, I thank you so much and I'm
excited for 2025.
Every year I pick a word that is my anthem for the year. 2024 was Forward. I
talk about what it has meant to keep moving forward in my Wednesday Wisdom post Keep Moving Forward. 2025's word is Refocus. Continually moving
forward has brought a lot of focus and clarity for me and has helped me realize what my priorities
are. My family is one. My career is two. And this blog is three.
I'm looking forward to more fashion, more life, more inspiration, and more
encouragement. Looking forward to growing my community and nurturing the joy
I get from sharing my favorite fashion trends, staples, shoes, and love of
coffee.
2025 is guaranteed to be interesting but for now, let's take a look back at
this Shopaholic's year in review.

Hottest Pinterest Board
On Pinterest you all love my pins from my blog! As a creator you would hope that your audience will like what you create specifically, and it turns out you do! And December's hottest pin on that board was my blog post, Holding on to Joy. I always love when my most popular pins are ones that inspire. As we go into a new year, holding on to joy will be exponentially important as we step into the unknown.

LTK
This year I leaned in, growing my LTK shop, pivoting away from my online
store. My LTK has grown to more than 200 followers, my shop has had 3,136
clicks, a 320% increase over last year and I've published 2,855 links, a 400% increase over last year!
My top brand was Boden and the Alexa Maxi dress was by far the most popular on my LTK. Thank you so much for your support this year and if you are new here, just download the LTK app and follow me @shopaholicscloset2016.
I look forward to even more growth in 2025 as I share my closet with you!
Happy Shopping!
