Now when it comes to setting goals, it seems like the same ones always come up such as plan better, work smarter and stay focused. Funny how sometimes the easiest things like using a content calendar seem to be challenging once things get busy. However, that won’t stop us from putting together a list of things we’d both like to focus on for 2019!

Our Double Take 2019 Goals

1. Create and work off of an editorial calendar
2. Get a new computer / upgrade storage capacity to help with workflow and capabilities
3. Upgrade to a new iPhone
4. Do more twin Instagram stories
5. Show you all more behind the scenes of our daily lives like cooking, working out, taking care of our families etc.
6. Team up with more blogger friends on posts and giveways
7. Post more iPhone photos of what we are wearing that day {it’s so hard to do!}
8. Share about our health journey with us both having thyroid issues
9. Write a full post about us being adopted
10. Post our Top 10 #doubletakedeals on Instagram every day
11. Do a LOFT, Abercrombie, Express, Target and Old Navy try on session monthly {or more LOL}
12. Host a 2019 event at Kendra Scott {we love doing them!}
13. Grow on social media…which will take lots of work 😉
14. Put more time into Pinterest and pinning conten
15. Utilize new apps to create new styles / types of content for our social media channels
16. Work more efficiently during the daytime so we don’t have to be on our phones and computer during the evenings
17. Add 10 new brands / partners that we want to work with in 2019
18. Do monthly surveys so we can see what you all are liking or want to us to add / change
19. Post an online closet sale on our Facebook page every few months
20. Review each month and make notes about things that worked and didn’t

Whew, that’s it for our blog resolutions for now! We do have some personal ones of course, but we will save those for another post. We can’t thank you all enough for your ongoing support.

2019 marks year seven of our blogging journey and we are so thrilled to continue to bring you all affordable outfit ideas plus designer deals!

Have a great rest of the week!

xo,

Lindsay & Whitney

    Do you girls have Hashimotos by chance? I do and it’s the WORST! My hair has thinned, I’ve gained weight because of it, then lost weight (with the aid of my Dr.) I’m tired, have dry skin, brain fog…ugh!!! I hope to read posts of your Thyroid journey and hope you ladies feel better! ♥️

      Hello Melanie! Thank you so much for leaving a comment on our post. We are both dealing with Hashimotos as well. 🙁 It’s been a bumpy journey over the last few years and we plan our sharing our story in hopes we can help others going through this too! Thank you much for the kind words! We are in this together!
      xx,
