[Musing] Past // Present // Future // Are You Looking Forward To 2016?


Looking back at the last post of 2014 here, we managed to pull off all that were mentioned then except learn dancing (ooopss!). On this final day of 2015, what is going through your head? Have you accomplished what you were set out to do for this year? Are you anything but excited to embrace the new year of 2016?

2015 has been quite a year for LUMINNEJ, having the opportunity to collaborate with new brands, creating new friendships along the way and we have come to realize one thing - trust the timing of life. We try to be not too caught up with trying hard to reach out or approach brands. Let it be, perhaps when the right time comes, those brands on our wish list will find their way here. Some will come, others may leave, but hey, we are still here. This is a space for creativity and our own explorations. Our voice is as equally important as trying to allow brands to be seen here, if not, more so. 


This coming new year, we are looking forward to less frantic, more selective collaborations, more "me time" to allow LUMINNEJ to be who we would love to be. We have come to believe in the notion that, "We don't necessarily need to have or own all the things that we love", it is the appreciation that counts. 

A few things remain - horning into our photography skills, learn to "see" things in a different manner or find ways to present our view point differently, working on creating meaningful content, writing, enjoying every moment of crafting the words, the visuals, most of all, we feel, we must do everything with intention - a purposeful one


We do look forward to one new thing though, that is to step out more, to travel and explore a bigger world out there for LUMINNEJ, and hopefully, be able to share those memorable experiences with you here. That would be one of the dreams we hope to achieve for this coming brand new year of 2016! Of course, last but not least, we would love to send our love out to all of you who have come with us on our journey of exploration thus far. We sure hope to see you back here again next year, tomorrow in fact, haha *_^ Thanks for an awesome 2015, lovelies *_^

Have a magnificent count down to the new year, stay safe (guess most likely you won't be reading this but rather spending your night watching fireworks?) and happy, always! See you on the other side of the calendar *_^

With love, 
Jeann

  5. I am with you about being more selective about collaborations, frankly I have been really unhappy with the direction of my blog for the past 4-5 months. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to work with many brands but I hated the way my blog is starting to look like pure adverts with no creativity whatsoever. I am hoping to change that in 2016, maybe more food, fashion and my #MOTD posts. We'll see... :-)

    1. That sounds like an awesome idea. I do always like your food and cooking blog posts, actually. I guess we all need to just juggle and balance everything out. As long as you do what you love and makes you happy, that's most important as it is YOUR blog after all, right?

      Thanks for dropping by. Lovely to see you here again. It's been a while.
