I'm a huge fan of quotes. To me, it's someone else verbalizing my heart, feelings or emotions..and sometimes I can simply relate or empathize with the author's words.

How does the following quote make you feel? Feel free to post your heart.

...when these inner earthquakes hit, it's your soul rattling it's cage, telling you some new aspect of yourself needs to get birthed. Trust. Move. Head towards the unknown, because that's where new life emerges. Go big: Where is the extreme place, the brave place, that's not accountable to logic or caution? I felt an unavoidable urge to live wilder and get stronger. - Amely Greeven, Serenity Now - W.
Do you have inner earthquakes? I do. Unfortunately I tend to shut them up and allow the "busyness" of life to squash the voice threatening to push me out of my comfortable box.




I wanted to do something GREAT the last year in my 20's and I'm 5 months into the year and the "greatness" has yet to be discovered. I have, however, accomplished several things on the "to do" in the New Year list I made at the beginning of the year.

"It's not the broken dreams that break us..it's the ones we didn't dare to dream." - Will Schuester (Glee)

What dreams have you dared to not dream? It's not too late..

I have been trying to remember to have a photo taken of my daily outfit..
Here are Sun-Wed..
~ Easter Sunday ~
White cap from Men's Wearhouse, yellow cardi from CJ Banks, white tank and mid-calf length skirt from Dillard's

Pictured with Jarrard on Monday:
yellow cardi from CJ Banks, white tank and white maxi skirt from Lane Bryant (not pictured)


Tuesday
grey skirt (from dots), black tank and turquoise cardi (borrowed from Mom)



Wednesday
blue cardi (on loan from Mom), pink tee from CJ Banks and floral skirt from Lane Bryant (purchased a million years ago)

No darling accessories accompanied these outfits. Usually when going to work..I'm doing good to get dressed in something decently cute and am not worried about accessories. 

Sunday I was planning on wearing something completely different but I just wasn't in the mood..and I'm sure if didn't help that I couldn't find a clutch in a bold color to go with the color blocking look I was shooting for. Alas...the yellow and white worked out better..and girls, I felt fab-u-lous! 

I hope you're feeling fab today! If not, make the decision that YOU are..and then BE it! 

It's alll about confidence. You've got this!

This is a style blog too so why haven't I posted any pictures of my outfits?

This post is just that. Wednesday I wore a brown plaid suit jacket with a grass green cami and a silky multi-colored skirt. Mixing textures and patterns..
Check our the picture. 


I pushed the sleeves up on the jacket in an effort to camouflage how long they are.

I'm not sure why my hand is flailing about. 

I like this look but definitely need to find a different jacket.

More to come!
