How to Style Black with Snake Print

 SHOP THE LOOK

V-Neck Sweater (Only $14) // Black Jeans // Snake Booties (50% off)

Lipstick // Necklace

I just picked up this v-neck sweater for a bargain - it is currently only $14! And, those black jeans are my favorite brand and pair.

Tank // Leather Jacket // Jeans // Snake Booties // Lipstick

Necklace // Birthstone Necklace // Convertible Crossbody Bag (Best bag!)

Happy Wednesday!

Those black jeans are my "go to" jeans.  I wear them several times during the week.  I tend to gravitate towards an all black outfit, which I find very classic.  I have found that I like mixing in snake print with the black - it adds a little texture and contrast.  I thought it would share two options - a summer look and winter one.  This summer picture was taken last year on my trip to NYC. (NYC is one of my favorite places to visit. I was on my way to see Wicked - hence the extra layer of warmth - the sweater tied around my bag - for a freezing cold theater in the middle of summer.)
 
 In the summer look, I love my snake booties.

Those ankle snake booties that I am wearing are one of my favorites. They are comfy and I always get compliments when I wear them.  Also, that crossbody bag is the BEST!  It converts between a crossbody, shoulder, waist and wristlet - and it's 30% off!

Gift Ideas + Most Clicked Items

I have been seeing more white jeans paired with a beige sweater this late fall/early winter season.  It makes me want to get out my white jeans.  

My encouraging words for today...

You may have heard the saying: “Your attitude determines your altitude.” In other words, a positive attitude will cause you to “fly high” in life, while a negative attitude will keep you down. Just as pilots have certain rules to follow to keep planes oriented, with the right attitudes and altitudes, I want to share a few rules you can follow in life to help keep your attitude positive so you can keep your “altitude” where it should be.

Rule #1: Maintain the right attitude when the going gets rough. No matter what happens to you, determine to go through it with the right attitude. In fact, determine beforehand that you will keep a positive attitude in the midst of every negative situation that presents itself to you.

Happy Mid-week!

These are three of my favorite looks I have put together over the years to answer the question - what to wear to a Christmas party?  I love the burgundy velvet blazer look - but I also like the faux fur leopard one.  And, I know a lot of you like the pleated red skirt paired with that grey leopard coat.

My encouragement for those anxious moments, days, situations...

Anxiety also means to take thought or being “… apprehensive, or worried about what may happen; concern about a possible future event.” The Lord once told me, “Anxiety is caused by trying to mentally and emotionally get into things that are not here yet or things that have already been” — mentally leaving where you are and getting into an area of the past or the future.

Philippians 4: 4, 6, 7: Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God’s peace which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Twice in this passage the apostle Paul tells us to rejoice. He urges us not to fret or have any anxiety about anything but to pray and give thanks to God in everything — not after everything is over. If we wait until everything is perfect before rejoicing and giving thanks, we won’t have much fun. Learning to enjoy life even in the midst of trying circumstances is one way we develop spiritual maturity.

Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a good week so far.

I read this the other day. And, I thought it was something I would share.  I believe most of us have had friends come in and out of our lives, and sometimes we wonder why.  I thought this was a great way to think about those relationships.

Trust God to be the God of your friendships. Romans 8:28 tells us that “all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”God is the engineer of social relationships. He has a way of bringing the right people into your life at the right times for the right purposes. Sometimes the relationships last a lifetime. Sometimes they are intended only for a season in life. If you have lost a friend, go to the Lord and tell Him how you feel: “Lord, You know how satisfying and uplifting that relationship was to me. For some reason, You’ve chosen to move this person out of my life, and I’m trusting You to move someone else into my life. Help me to see that You are working for the ultimate good in both lives. Help me to find ways of giving to the new friends that You bring into my life. Give me a sense of joy and anticipation at what You are about to do in my life or in the life of someone else who is about to become my friend.”

Winter has arrived where I live.  It is so cold!  This week it has already snowed a couple of times (and it is supposed to snow more this week), which really makes it feel like Christmas is coming.  I love this time of year.  I do not want to admit it, but I have already watched several Hallmark Christmas movies.  Has anyone else?  This one is still one of my favorites.  And, this one is also at the top of my list.

I have also ordered some new Christmas decorations, and I can't wait to start decorating after Thanksgiving.  I ordered these ceramic trees with LED lights and this little village with some twinkle lights.  I plan to display them on my new bookshelf.
