Spring Fashion

II love everything about spring! The smells, the flowers, the colors, Easter, & of course the fashion! I love dressing for mild weather, the temps are comfortable & you can break all the rules. This season I'm obsessed with a few things- whites, rompers, & mixing winter clothes with summer clothes. 

WHITES/CREAMS: 
First of all, it's totally ok to wear white year round/ but I especially love the all white & cream look for spring. Always great with nude, tan, or camel shoes. By the way, in the pic on the left I'm wearing skorts- remember those?! Don't be shocked if you see them in lots of stores this spring! Bring out your sequin pants, skirts, or shorts from that holiday party & pair them with a casual sweater or tee - great way to use them after the party is over! 

ROMPERS:
I'm obsessed with ROMPERS this season. I've been wearing them for a few years but I'm really into wearing them with boots in the spring. If your romper is sleeveless throw on a cardigan or kimono & some boots to stay comfy in the crisp spring air. 

WINTER/SUMMER MIX:
This spring, put all your clothing pieces in the same category. So many of us change out our closets when it's time to change seasons- but I say always keep a few of your favorite pieces in your closet year round. Kimonos, cardigans, & button ups have no season. Leather, suede, lightweight scarves & booties have no season. These items should always stay in your closet. Pair your favorite suede booties & kimono  with shorts for a spring look. Or wear sandals or open toed shoes with jeans & a sweater - just mix it up! The most common complaint I hear is "I just don't have any clothes" & my response is- you do! You just have to rethink them! If you have a favorite tank, pair it with a blazer, or a comfy tee, tuck it into a skirt & throw on some heels. Mix it up folks! 


I can't wait for it to warm up a tad! Hurry up spring!

I arrived at New Life Church in Conway this morning wearing my red Arkansas Dream Center tee shirt, ready to serve- after all the shirt says SERVE on the back in huge white writing, right?!  I was fully anticipating meeting broken people- people who were angry, hurt, & in desperate need. I was prepared to roll my sleeves up & get dirty. To serve. *Boy was I wrong!* - So I reported to some friendly faces in the foyer of the church and said "Put me to work! What can I do?" It was almost 10:30ish and they were getting ready to bring lunch to all the volunteers helping to clean up the tornado wrecked towns of Vilonia & Mayflower, AR. So I was quickly introduced to the lady in charge of getting the meals distributed to the proper areas. I then was paired with another woman, handed a sheet of paper with directions, my car was packed with sack lunches & water & we were off to save the World. Me and a woman I only met moments before. As we drove up to Beryl Road i

It's finally here ladies! Longer days, shorter sleeves, bright colors, & happier moods! Time to paint your piggies a bright color & let them free after a long winter shoved in boots! Grill some veggies, eat some fruit, lay in the grass, stare at the blue sky, smell the breeze, smile, laugh, be happy! Shake those winter blues! Get in the yard & hula hoop, do handstands, ride a bike, take a hike, throw a party, BBQ, go fishing, walk with a friend, go for a jog, plant in your garden, just get outside! Hope in the future, live for the moment, bloom where you're planted, shine love, hope in the unknown! Thank God for today- because it is glorious!

These Walls

5 years & 3 months ago we moved into our beautiful new home. I loved it! I picked out every last piece- from the wood slatted doors to the floor trim to the beveled edges on the walls...it was our new home. A place we had dreamt about building for years. From humble beginnings as newlyweds in a 900 sq ft home to this new gorgeous custom built home. It was fabulous. We were so proud. Right at 2,000 sq ft, beautiful molding around the windows & doors, custom cabinets, fireplace & mantel to my exact specifications, a playroom for two growing boys (then 1 & almost 4). Perfection.  Fast forward a year and a half & I was suffocating in this once oasis. My 2 year old turned into a raging terrible two's with the blink of an eye. That sweet precious 5 year old missed the kindergarten cut off but lord knows I would've sent him if they would've let me. I was unraveling. And why? Well....all us moms have been there before, am I right?! All I knew is I had to get out
