Outfit Inspiration | June 17, 2013

Everyday Outfits

I have this trick that I thought I’d share with you. When I’m wearing something sort of edgy, like my jean cut off shorts, I like to pair it with something conservative on top, like a button up oxford. I think it’s a fun because it’s somewhat unexpected.

Outfit Links:
Top- J.Crew, Shorts- Citizens of Humanity, Watch- Michael Kors, Sandals- Steven for similar

So, I’ve learned something about my beloved J. Crew Factory layering v-neck tee. They don’t make them like the original version I posted about anymore. I just purchased a few of them from J. Crew Factory and they are really see through, not like the original version. I haven’t confirmed this with anyone at J. Crew, but I think they are now carrying my original tee at the “regular” J. Crew. I just purchased lots of tees from there and they seem identical to the tee I posted about originally (here).

Tee- J.Crew, Jeans- Citizens of Humanity, Sandals- BCBGeneration, Tote- Madewell

I am loving my turquoise jean shorts for the summer! They are surprisingly comfortable and I just feel so happy and fresh when I wear them!

Top- Ole San Miguel, Shorts- J.Crew Factory, Shoes- Aldo

To church or the grocery store, just change the shoes!

Soooo, I wear my Ole San Miguel shirts a lot!

    I have a question about J.Crew factory shorts. I have never ordered from there, but in the regular j.crew I sometimes wear a 2 and sometimes I wear a 4 (really varied.) What do you normally wear and is it the same with factory? Thanks!

    Ole San Miguel is a booth at an Antique Fair in Round Top, TX. You can only purchase their shirts from their booth. They do not have a website just a fb page.

    I wear the same size shorts at J. Crew Factory as I do at J. Crew. My rule of thumb with J. Crew is, order the smaller size. Hope this helps.

My first visit to a Kips Bay Decorator Show House My first visit to a Kips Bay Decorator Show House (@kbshowhouse ) did not disappoint! Wow! Wow! Wow! There are so many talented artists/designers in this world, and to be able to experience and be fully immersed in so many of their creations in one place was a really neat experience!! I highly recommend, if you have not been. Their show in Dallas is open through November 13th.

Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I ha Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I have a trick, and no, it’s not an expensive hair growth serum! It’s Castor Oil, so it’s all natural and inexpensive. Apparently, it’s been used for thousands of years dating back to ancient Egypt. Ok, and I use it on my eyelashes, too, but I’m doing that at my own risk. I don’t want to recommend this practice, since I don’t really know what it’s going to do to my eyesight. I know, call me crazy- it’s fine. 

Thanks to my friend, Michelle for telling me about this little trick! 

Comment “oil” for  links to both the Castor Oil and the wands I use. #beautytips #beauty #eyebrows #beautyproducts
I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of mental illness. If my friend is strong enough to stand at the podium and talk about her husband and the hope her family has in the midst of their darkest days, then I want to honor both of them by telling you about my struggle with mental illness. My friend mentioned that many of her husband’s closest friends had no idea that he’d been struggling with mental illness for 3 years, and I realized that many of you, and probably some of my closest friends don’t know how long and hard my struggle has been with mental illness. For me my mental illness wasn’t the kind where I couldn’t get out of bed or out of the house, which would make it hard to tell I was struggling. For me it looked more like battling through the day and struggling with my own self condemning thoughts and emotions - shaming myself for being happy one minute and sad the next, or for not being happy all the time, looking around at all my blessings and not feeling gratitude, which made me feel like there was something wrong with me. It was hard to get excited. On some days I walked around feeling like a scared puppy in a big bad world with my emotions right at the surface. For me, my faith is very important to me, and I knew this was not the life God had for me, so I started to pray for help and deliverance. God started to lead me to help in a whole bunch of different forms, counselors, health practitioners, friends, medicine, trauma therapy, EMDR, books, excercise, the support of family, and most importantly, Christ and His word. 
For me, it was over a 10 year battle probably because I was overcoming a lot of trauma being raised by an alcoholic mom. But for you it may be longer or shorter or this isn’t something you struggle with at all (hallelujah!). If you do, your emotions and your struggle may be different. But I’m here to say, you’re loved. You are loved by God and by so many of the people around you. Don’t give up. Dig in and fight the battle that’s happening in your mind. Fight it like you would if you had cancer. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #mentalhealthmatters
I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by swapping out my denim skirt for my leather skirt!! I’m also totally digging socks with loafers. Takes me right back to my middle school days, and I’m not sad about it! And yes, that’s what my closet looked like after trying to figure those outfits out, but it was fun! 🤷🏼‍♀️

How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a new pair of jeans! You don’t need to buy a new pair of jeans to get the cuffed denim look! Just grab a pair of straight leg jeans from your closet, cuff them to be about an inch or 2 above the top of your ankle bone and use the nifty little gadget from this tutorial. Viola! Plus, the cuffed denim length makes it a heck of a lot easier to wear most of the shoes in your closet! #winning
