A DAY AT THE LAKE






Hi guys, I took a road trip with a couple of my friends on a RAINY day to the lake. The weather was cold and we had to walk and walk and walk so comfortable shoes were a must. It's a really simple outfit I pulled together last minute but I felt like sharing with you guys! By the way, I had my first  "my hair is natural" moment. I took time out to flat iron my natural hair and as soon as water touched it, all my hard work disappeared and my hair just shrunk. I refused to let that stop me from having fun though; after all, it is just hair. I am extremely knackered at the moment but I hope you all had an amazing Saturday! 

OUTFIT DETAILS
Next Sweater // Asos Boyfriend Shirt, belt, faux fur lapel collar, and hat // H&M Boots // Primark Tights // New Look Skirt

On the boat ride, I had the opportunity to take loads of pictures of absolutely beautiful houses and I am in no way the greatest photographer but I thought I'd share some of these pictures with you.



Okay quick story, as we were leaving the lake, I saw these flowers that were yet to bloom and I wanted to take a picture and my friend said they were ugly and weren't worth a picture. Anyways, I have "strong head", I took a picture. As I was looking at these flowers and remembering my friend's reaction to it, it made me think of how easily we JUDGE THE PROCESS. We look at people and just conclude they are not at a place worth paying attention to and it saddens me because sometimes these people  like these flowers are in  a process. Soon they will bloom just like the flowers, but if we pay them no attention like they are nothing, we can actually be an obstacle to them blooming...to them being the absolute best they can be. If God is the only One that can shape the vessel, perhaps we should take into consideration how we are in no place to determine the importance of people who are still being shaped by God...the people in the process...the people yet to bloom...people like me and you...


Lots of love,

When you finally find what's beautiful...















I always knew Easter wasn't about Easter eggs. I always knew it was about the life, death & resurrection of my Lord Jesus Christ. I couldn't hold back the tears reading about his death on Friday  All I kept thinking was he could have dealt with every single one of his attackers. He had that much power but He chose to sit it  out...to endure just to show me and you that He loves us so much. I'm so excited today that He rose again. He shows that death doesn't have the last word anymore. I bet the people thought once he died people would stop talking about Him, little did they know, it was just the beginning. Over 2000 years later, He is still been talked about and still brings joy and peace into my heart. oh, and it was not the nails that kept Him on the cross, it was LOVE that kept Him right there....



I love to play with different textures when I'm in the mood and I just loved the contrast my favourite skirt had with this pleather peplum. I wanted an ethnic feel so I added dashiki print sleeves to a vest I'm wearing on the inside and threw on my faux fur backwards because I'm a bit weird. But, who isn't?

"God loves the world so much that He gave up His only Son, Jesus to die for us, so we never have to perish...once we accept His Son...His love, we are going to have everlasting life - John 3:16"


Lots of love,

...WE REMINISCE ON THE PAST 11 MONTHS...



















I was awake at midnight to experience the last 1st of any month in 2012, What a year it has been? I've grown as a person and we've grown as a family (the blog, you and I)...We gained over 200 followers in the short space of 11 months and you guys are just awesome!

I compiled my favourite looks of the year. Which looks of mine are your favourite or which month did I take your breath away more? Let me know what you think. I appreciate very single one of your comments. 

How has your year been? Bad? Well, you have 30 more days to turn things around. Good? You have 30 more days to make it even better. The countdown has begun to 2013. I pray to still be here and still be blogging

I love you guys...
