    Current Makeup Must-Haves

    A few months ago, Josh and I went home for the weekend to see family.  I’d packed my makeup bag with me, but hadn’t packed half of my makeup products.  I don’t know what I was thinking.  I had to run out to get a couple of items and borrowed a few from my Mom.  It wasn’t a huge deal, and I survived lol.  The thing is, back home we don’t have an Ulta or a Sephora close by.  So it got me to thinking, what if I’d gone home and left ALL of my makeup in Chattanooga?!  Which products would I be most upset about and have a hard…

    Summer Lust List

    It’s been a long month of kitchen remodeling at my house, and it’s left me beyond ready for vacation!  Josh and I are going to Seaside, Florida at the end of August.  We visited for the first time 5 years ago, and fell in love.  I can’t wait to put my toes in the crystal blue water, booty in the white sand, and enjoy all the incredible eateries 30a has to offer!  If you know me at all, you know I have to have some killer outfits to wear for our trip, so I created a little “lust list” of a few summer pieces that I’m dying to get! But…

    Bikinis, Boats, & Body Image

      Josh and I rented a boat this past Sunday after church for the day, and had the best time!  I love being on the water more than most things in life, and have officially decided that I want to buy a boat.  Now, will that happen?  To be continued.  This post actually has nothing to do with boats besides that’s how we spent our Sunday, and I’m getting in a plug for my husband to see how much I REALLY want a boat! hehe The bikini I wore is from Zaful– Front Tie Bikini –and I actually have quite a few from there.  They’re so inexpensive, but I’m not displeased with…

    Seasons Change Crop Tops Remain

    I have no idea what is going on with the weather.  When I wore this outfit there was a mix of sun, rain, clouds, humidity, and chilly wind.  I’m just sitting over here twiddling my thumbs until spring decides to officially arrive.  Until then, my suggestion to look like you’re ready for spring, but not freezing to death in sun dresses is to, ahem, wear crop tops.  Well, along with pants and something to cover your arms if it’s actually chilly.  Okay but really, I adore crop tops.  If I could wear them every day I would.  If you don’t like crop tops, you should unfollow my blog immediately.  I’m kidding. …

    Chasing dreams. Living out your passions.

    Life is too short to do anything that doesn’t set your soul on fire. Have you ever reached a certain point in life where you truly start seeing yourself clearly? When you realize things you used to believe about yourself are SO wrong? (Perhaps a part of that is beginning to see yourself the way Jesus does) Anyhow, that’s where I am. I turn 29 tomorrow and all I can think is wow, I need to do something I love. Something that I’m passionate about. I listen to all of these business and self-development podcasts and something I hear over and over is, “You need to pursue something in your…

    Sunday Brunchin’ Style

    I’m not sure when brunch became the new happy hour, but it certainly has become a staple in my weekends.  Brunch is a noun and a verb.  A way of life.  You go to brunch to brunch.  I like to have my Sunday brunches after church, but oftentimes I show up too late for church (I’m late for most things in life).  In those desperate times when I know I should’ve gotten up earlier for time with the Lord, and my husband is beyond annoyed (because he hates being late) I immediately say, “Let’s go brunch!!!”.  That statement, my friends, makes all well in the world. I’m super passionate about…
