Motivation Monday: M.Y.O.B. Mind Your Own Business
M.Y.O.B. Mind your own business. This is something that I struggle with. It's not that I am always in someone's business. I wouldn't call myself nosey, but I will say that I am overly concerned with other people's issues and I begin to worry. I don't know why I do this, and it's not because I'm compassionate, I just get caught up thinking about other people. This is something that I am really starting to struggle with at this point in my life. I worry about other people's opinions and situations and it doesn't even concern me. I don't meddle in conflicts, but I just mainly ask the question why? My family and friends always tell me to focus on my own situations and goals and forget about what doesn't concern me. This is something that I am working on, but it is hard! I just can't fathom why people make certain decisions, and I'm sure people feel the same about me, but I'm just like … [Read More...]

What I Wore: Peachy Perfection Plus New Hair Do!
Happy Tuesday my loves! It's been a while since I have done a What I Wore post, so I know this is long over due. It was a pretty nice day on Sunday and I was in the mood to wear a dress to church. As I was looking through my closet I noticed a dress that my brother bought for me when he was in Spain last year. I never wore the dress because I didn't get it until December...smh...and it was just too cold. The dress is a simple and very comfortable. It is a peach tank dress with a mint green belt. I paired it with and Olivia & Joy Handbag and my favorite pumps of the moment (Prabal Gurung for Target). I put on a lace cardigan because it can get really chilly at church.
