Black & White

Lasting change is a series of compromises. And compromise is all right, as long your values don't change.

Friendships are tricky things. They require a lot of work. I've been thinking about this a lot recently since my group of friends has drastically gotten smaller since high school. I've been reminiscing on some of my friendships that ended for what seemed like, at the time, really good reasons. Is it possible to "rekindle" a friendship with someone without being too paranoid that they will do the same thing to you again? Should a person receive a second chance if they weren't given the chance to fix whatever the "problem" was in the first place? How does one make this decision?
If you have any ideas or answers, please let me know!

Red, Black & White + Stripes.

Don't judge these pictures too much. It was cold & super bright out. But I love this skirt, this shirt and these shoes! 

I hope everyone has a Happy Wednesday<3

Shirt: H & M
Skirt: Old Navy
Shoes: Spring



Its been a super long day & when I mean super long, I mean LOOONG.
Picked up an extra shift today but right now I regret it.
I had to move boxes up and down stairs and then unpack fifty boxes
 (Yes! 5-0!)
My feet and my back were hurting but I was greeted by my little buddy and that made me feel a little better. After much debate whether to even post these pictures, I figured why not. I've been pretty consistent with my blogging and hope to continue so. 
Anyways, wanted to post a couple pictures I found on twitter that made me wanna die laughing. Hope you guys enjoy them as much as I did. 



hehehehehe. <3
k, bye.

Love Story & Outfit Post


Hola! 
So long ago. But I like it. 



True Love
This isn’t your typical love story. You’re going to be mighty impressed by how amazing He truly is. Growing up I never really went looking for my other half, nor did I have any intention in meeting him so early in my life, but I guess when they say if it’s meant to be, it will be. I want to start by telling you where my life was when I met him. I had known him all my life. He’d always loved me and He’d call me and ask me to give my heart away. But there were other things that seemed more important. He was not even on my priority list and if he was, he was at the very bottom.

It wasn't that I didn't know he was good, loving, wonderful... oh! The words I could say to describe him. He was and is perfect. Nobody will ever compare him. He is one of a kind; he is unique in his manner of loving. He is wonderful in his way of embracing me. When he wraps me in his arms, it is heavenly. When he calls out to me, his words touch me to the very depth of my soul, he convicts me to be better every day because I see the way he loves people. You could say He is for the people, you've never met someone so unselfish. The thing I truly love about Him the most is that he is there, every day, every moment. Even though he wants to please us and bring us joy, he also stands strong in his convictions. He never wavers and always does what is right, and even if in that moment I hate that I must change my way of thinking so that it coincides with him, I know it is for the better. He is the epitome of brilliance and goodness.

Back to me, I was a mess. Like most 17 year olds, we are huge balls of mess. I was miserable and mean. I appeared happy and was very good at pretending that I was. But if I’m honest, I hated my life. I didn’t understand why I felt like this. I was part of a family whose parents managed to stay together, I had more than I needed and never went without. I had friends who claimed to love me and I had goals. Yet, I felt unaccomplished, unwanted, unloved and desperately alone. I was unhappy and therefore the world sucked. You know that teenage mentality, it’s all about me!  

After going away for Christmas break right after I turned 18, I came home and out of desperation I called him. I told him what was happening. And he courted me. He was gentleman. Spoke to me in poetic melodies and love songs, showed me things I’d never seen, embraced my flaws and showed me what I could improve. Showed me how good true love could be and before I knew it I was falling in love. Love like I’d never experienced, it was beyond this world. I was walking on sunshine in the mornings and seeing stars in my eyes at night. Calling him in the middle of the night and he’d call to me every day just because he wanted to speak to me. And before I knew it, I was happy. I was nice for the sake of being nice, and I loved those who I had hated. I forgave those who had hurt me and received forgiveness from those who I’d hurt. I was changed by this indescribable love.

After four years of this beautiful relationship, I can only say I’m the only one that makes mistakes and he’s as forgiving as always. And sometimes I’m determined to walk away, but there he is, talking to me in that sweet, melody of a voice. Reminding me that I’ll never find a love like His. Not because he is boastful or full of himself (and even if he was, he has every right  to be) but because he is perfectly perfect for me. And if you ever got a chance to be in a relationship this lovely, you’d agree with me. So today, I’d like to introduce you to the reason of my happiness.



His name is Jesus. I invite you to let him love you like he’s loved me.

Winter Madness (outfit post)

I enjoy snow. 

Not the cold.

So Cindy from EverydayToUs and I decided to take some winter pictures a couple weeks ago. She posted some on her blog and I'm going to post the rest. 









“We could all do with a bit more joy in our lives couldn't we? The wonderful thing is that when we start spreading joy, we begin to actually experience more joy in our lives too!”

After All. (ootd)

after all You are constant 
                           after all You are only good 
                                                    after all You are sovereign 
                     not for a moment did You forsake me.      

                                          Meredith Andrews- Not for a Moment. 









 My favourite part of this whole day and outfit was my hair. It took me 1.5 hrs to do it but it was definitely worth it.

Fashion Weekend: Little Black Dress & Green Shoes

Happy Tuesday!

"You must know... surely, you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. I believe you spoke with my aunt last night, and it has taught me to hope as I'd scarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on. "
-Mr Darcy 
One of my favorite movies lines ever!

Fashion Weekend: Blue Shoes & Black Dress

I got several things to post this week, mostly my weekend outfits. And also I got nominated for an award (Yippeee!!) So during the week, I'll be doing my best to post all those things up. Never knew I'd get so busy with blogging. Anyways, this weekend was a tough fashion weekend. I didn't know what to wear or how to do my hair. I opted out with simple pieces and put them together. The first outfit isn't the best outfit I've ever put together so this will definitely be an outfit that will be redone in the future. 
My favorite part of the whole outfit was the belt and the shoes. I do enjoy combining two different colors. 






















Most of my belts are too big for me, so I've gotten into the habit of tying them into little knots.
This one turned out well, looks like a bow.
Who doesn't like bows? 




Blazer: Dynamite
Dress: Forever 21
Belt: Ardenes
Shoes: Suzy Shier
Hair: Ardenes

Fashion Weekend: Collars & Stripes


For a while I've been looking for a collar woman's shirt. I havent been able to find one that fits well and is within a college girls budget. I went shopping the other day after a couple weeks hiatus and bought a couple of things. I was really excited when I walked into Old Navy and saw a collar shirt. Old Navy has the best sizes. I'm not a skinny girl so sometimes its hard to find shirts that fits my shoulders and breast area. Usually its one of two problems: too small or too big! But this time I was lucky. So I wore it with one of my favorite skirts because its so colorful.  
Enjoy!
