I’m a casual dresser. I’ve written before about how I used to wish that I worked in an environment where dressing up is required, but now I’m all kinds of happy that I can pretty much wear what I want. That doesn’t mean I don’t step it up every now […]

We’ve entered Week 4 of Run for God! And I’m so proud of the group of people I’m training with. You should see them out there in the rain, y’all running with focus and determination! They’re the embodiment of Hebrews 12:1, which states: Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great […]
Good morning! One of the major things that I’ve learned from blogging and photography is that we need to document our lives. It may seem a little narcissistic and a tad bit crazy but think about all those moments you wish you’d captured… Not the big planned moments but the […]
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you know that I like to do a little something called “Fist Bump Friday”, where I encourage my friends to share something that made them happy during the week. Sometimes we get so bogged down with life and the crazy that comes […]
A few years ago, I wrote a post about religious civility and the lack of respect that some people show towards people of faith, specifically towards Christians. The post was a reaction to some of the things that a few of my friends and acquaintances had posted over Easter weekend. […]
You guys! I think winter has finally ended. It’s been rainy and windy and a little bit chilly just about every Monday for the last 3 weeks but I’m not complaining because at least it’s not sleet, snow, or ice. In fact, every day except for Mondays it’s been really […]
Last summer, a friend of mine showed me the cutest pair of sandals that she’d just bought at a local boutique. I instantly fell in love. Y’all know, I’m all about shoes. Then she told me the story: Sskeo Designs is a fashion brand, based in Uganda, that makes handbags, […]
Just about every morning I post a picture of myself with a cup of coffee. I do this as a way of connecting with my friends and just starting my day off right. As much as I’d love to sit with each of you, share a cup of coffee, and […]
Matthew: 28:6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Jesus offered himself up as a sacrifice for my sins. But the redemption wasn’t in the crucifixion, it was in the resurrection. Jesus stated that he would die but […]
Let’s give it up for jobs that don’t have dress codes! When I first re~entered the work force, I remember wanting a job that required business casual attire: skirt, hose, and pumps. It made me feel all grown up, you know, after years of wearing nothing but oversized tees, scrunchies, […]
When Instagram announced that they were releasing an app for Android, I cried tears of joy and patiently waited for it to become available. And as soon as it was, I downloaded it and started snapping pictures. I was in filter paradise. Over time, Instagram has gone from a place […]

Sometimes I dress like I still live in Europe ~ an eclectic mix of styles: bohemian, modern, ethnic, and vintage inspired. Everything just mashed together to create me. When I was a teenager, I thought I was the black version of “Andie Walsh” in Pretty in Pink. I just knew […]
