Closet Update: November 2018

Walking into November after a low-spend month, I knew that this month could only unfold in two ways: 1) I … More

“If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you must look forward, do so prayerfully. However, the wisest thing can do is to be present in the present...Gratefully.” —Maya Angelou ✨ . . Heading to the desert for less than 48 hours with some girlfriends ✌🏻 Not taking my camera so I can be as present as I can in my favorite place 🌵 #pleblife

“I’m beginning to recognize that real happiness isn’t something large and looming on the horizon ahead but something small, numerous and already here. The smile of someone you love. A decent breakfast. The warm sunset. Your little everyday joys lined up in a row.” . . No more work days for me in 2018 ✌🏻 and there’s a whole lotta nothing planned 😌 For the next few weeks, I’m going to relish in the little joys—grabbing coffee with friends, sleeping in, not having to eat breakfast on the go, reading a book, etc. I want to end the year slowly and gratefully 💛 Here’s to all the little everyday joys. #pleblife

After months of neglecting my dresses, I’ve fallen back in love with them (probably due to one too many holiday treats ha! 🍪🍫🍷🍟) 🎄. I treated myself to the Fortunate Column Dress from @mienstudios during their Black Friday sale, and I’m in looooove! I was also fortunate to meet @lisa_hsieh_ during @renegadecraft last weekend, and I love this dress even more after meeting the designer! I’ll be doing a whole post on @mienstudios soon! . . Now that I’m tracking my wear count, I’ve worn this dress 5 times since I’ve received it in the mail a few weeks ago 🙈 This has been my favorite way to wear it with white sneakers and a chunky cardigan. . . What have you been loving this holiday season? I’m team cozy for sure! 🎅🏻 #pleblife

“a lot of things have happened this year and you have had to bear more than you ever thought you would, but i hope you know, through the difficult and the good, you have also been brave, in a beautiful, honest way, and no matter the progress you feel that you have not made, you are still growing here.” — @morganharpernichols 💛 . . The end of the year naturally always brings about some reflection, and naturally I’m one to list all the things I didn’t accomplish (yet) or all the things that could’ve gone better before I list all the things I did accomplish or all the things I am proud of. So to break that mindset this year, I’m going to list three things I am proud of this year, and I want YOU to tell me the same! I will celebrate with you—big or small—all the things you’re proud of this year! . . . Here are my three: 1. I let go of 70% of my wardrobe this year, and now only own 60-70 items in my wardrobe. . 2. I’ve reduced my plastic waste by being really mindful of bringing my reusables with me. . 3. I am learning to set boundaries and have been saying No a lot more (This has been a New Years resolution for years!). . . Now YOUR turn 🌟 #pleblife

I can’t believe Christmas is now only 15 days away! I’m definitely trying to soak in all these holiday vibes until it’s no longer socially acceptable to blast Christmas music🎄 . . My quest to find an ugly Christmas sweater has resumed, but in the meantime, I’ll still be here in mostly black 🖤 (Do any Christmas sweaters come in black? Please help a sista out! 😂). Brandon and I are finishing up some things before Winter Break, but soon we’ll be doin’ our holiday thang: Candy Cane Lane; pecan pies; hot coco walks; a marathon of Harry Potter and other Christmas movies; and crying over all the trees that don’t get to fulfill their Christmas destinies. What are some of your holiday traditions? . . Use the code “lastchanceholiday2018” for 20% off any @loyalestudio tee from now til tomorrow only! #pleblife #loyaleambassador

“it was when i stopped searching for home within others and lifted the foundations of home within myself i found there were no roots more intimate than those between a mind and body that have decided to be whole” — @rupikaur_ ☁️ . . This weekend I hung out with some dear friends (@sarapopepourri & @corey.loren) who asked me through out the day if I was hungry, if I needed something to drink, and what I wanted to eat for dinner. I was honest with them and told them that it felt weird being asked what I wanted or needed. I wasn’t used to it. As a teacher, I’m constantly putting my students’ and their families’ needs ahead of my own, that I’ve actually grown to be really horrible at taking care of myself. Brandon’s actually really good about predicting my needs and making sure I eat. But for the sake of sustainability of my own energy (and sanity), I need to get better at taking care of myself! So today, I took some time to myself to read, to write, and to just be. And now we’re on our way to grocery shop so we can meal prep for the hectic week ahead. This is our reminder to take care of ourselves during this busy time of year! // What have you been doing to take care of yourself this season? 💛 #pleblife
