Citron Stripes

Hey Loves! The cooler weather was here for a minute and now we are having a heatwave. I was enjoying the cooler weather because   I am ready to wear some cute winter attire. I am not one of those people that dresses like I am going to a funeral just because it's fall.

I love bold colors and incorporate those into my winter looks. The outfit I am wearing is a nice blend of colors, and layers.  I have always loved stripes and often incorporate them into many of my outfits and in this outfit, I simply tied my long sleeved striped shirt over my shoulders for a carefree look . 

This vibrant citron shirt looks yellow depending on

 how the sun hits it. Do you like to wear bright colors even when it's not spring or summer? I think they look great paired with neutrals

The color citron is like a big burst of sunshine:-)

Have an amazing day!

A New Day

Sometimes Life is a matter of perspective. When you wake up above the ground instead of under it, you are having a good day.. Some people did not wake up, so each time you get to open your eyes, there is a chance to start brand new. A chance to get it right. I am in a new season of my life, but sometimes to get to the new, the old things that held you back have to be cut. Sometimes those old things, old thoughts, familiar people are comfortable. Sometimes people around you can be toxic or bad for you. Sometimes even though something is bad for you it feels comfortable. And then there comes a time when...

IT HAS TO GO.

Growth is painful, but if you are not growing. You are dying. I would rather stretch in areas that make me uncomfortable, rather than not reach my full potential. It's a new day and it's mine. It is a new day for you too:-)

I find newness and growth exciting.  These bright colors make me feel like a ray of light and in my free time I have been busy pouring into the lives of other people through ministry. I like the direction I am going.

I love a great statement necklace and they always add a little something special no matter what you are wearing. The great thing about your life and how you live it is that it will make a bold statement too and you don't have to say anything. How you live and treat people speaks pretty loud. 

Even the words you speak about a person when you think they don't hear you. If they are negative, it says more about you than you than it does about them. Negative words are death and I would rather not speak them. I prefer to say good things behind someone's back or nothing at all.

I am having a birthday in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to celebrating. I am always grateful each time I get to celebrate a birthday and completely humbled that each year so many people want to celebrate with me

This week I am linking up with these lovely ladies: Lisa La Monde  Mix Match Fashion and Beauty101byLisa

Trying my best to make every day mean something

I am loving the combination of Citron and neutral colors. Perfect combination of bold and subtle

Have an amazing day!

Sunny Days

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? I had a lot of fun and managed to squeeze in some excursions to the beach:-) I also got some Mothers Day shopping done. How about you? I am looking forward to celebrating with my mother and my son. It is so nice to be honored as a mom and to do something nice to honor my own mother. Do you have any special Mothers Day traditions?

Today I am wearing a very bold ensemble with a Citron blazer, animal print and electric purple. I have always loved the way purple looks with green, especially the lime greens like Citron.

I am a little sunkissed from the beach and all that sprinting and jogging that is a part of my daily workout routine. I just love sunny days:-)

I love pastel nail colors. They are so perfect for spring and summer.

Have an amazing day!
