All Laced Up

I'm sure you've already seen this sweater a bazillion times because it's EVERYWHERE this fall. But, I had to post it too because it's just that good. Lace up is a huge trend this fall, so whenever it's combined with a comfy sweater - you know it's going to be in my closet. Plus, it's a great neutral color so it's perfect for layering with vests, jackets and scarves as it gets colder! I kept my accessories pretty neutral but added in some leopard because, let's be real, you can never go wrong with leopard. Just ask Shania Twain (almost dressed up as that for Halloween...and if you don't know what I'm talking about, you need to google it! Hah!).

And I know you're all shocked - but I wore my fave burgundy lipstick again. But like really, I own every shade of this lipstick because I'm obsessed.

Denim on Denim

I've always loved the full on denim look - but I never really knew how to style it. It can be slightly intimidating to wear a full on denim look. But here are a few easy rules to follow - as long as you're not wearing the exact same shade and you've got a few accessories that aren't denim - you're golden. Hah! Everything in moderation, right?

I paired this chambray denim button up with these dark rinse boot cut jeans (both from J.Jill)! To break up the denim a bit, I added in a few accessories. I find that a little leopard makes every outfit look instantly more chic. And my final touch was the limited edition pearl charm Compassion Fund Bracelet from J.Jill. 100% of the proceeds from this triple wrap bracelet go to support homeless and disadvantage women become self sufficient. So you can look cute while supporting a great cause!

Growing Into Myself

Okay. Never have I ever had a shirt that sums up my life more. Coffee (although...I could substitute this for pizza....), top knot (or in my case, baby top knot), bright lips (always), and Jesus (my main man). If you haven't checked out Honeybee Boutique yet - boy are you missing out. They have the best tees -especially for all you momma's out there!!! But for all of us tee-lovers as well.

The owner, Erica, is all about empowering women and making them feel confident and proud in every situation! Which y'all know, I couldn't support more.

Fashion has always been a creative outlet for me, but I really don't feel like I fully grew into myself until I started blogging. It's empowering to share your story, write words to paper (or computer) and put yourself out there in a vulnerable way. Quite honestly, for the first year I didn't really tell any of my friends that I had a blog. For some odd reason, I was embarrassed about it. But I recently came to the conclusion that "hey...this is who I am, take me or leave me" and man oh man what a change that outlook can make! And for me, it was all about finding my confidence.

So, all of a sudden, I'm obsessed with flared jeans. There's nothing I feel more confident in! They are so slimming (and SO MUCH more comfortable than skinny jeans - see ya muffin top). Add on this bold tee, a leopard kimono and a bright red lip and you're ready to conquer the world (or your hectic schedule). I totally agree with Erica that every women should feel valued, important and strong. This is such a wonderful company, so be sure to head over to her page and check it out!

To all my ladies out there - you are fierce, wonderful, incredible, beautiful and so loved. So own who you are and get out there to show the world.

Pattern Mixing 101

 In case you haven't already noticed - I'm pattern addicted. I love mixing different prints and textures, but the key is to keep it balanced. I typically only mix two bold prints (in this case, plaid and leopard) and then keep the rest of my outfit fairly neutral. But it's so hard to find neutral shoes that aren't super boring. But, thanks to Restricted Shoes, I finally found the perfect pair! The color is perfection and the little buckles on the sides keep them fashion forward. 

And let's talk about these earrings. I'm completely obsessed with ear jackets! These pearl ear jackets are from The Peach Box and are absolute perfection! Pearls are always classy, but these earrings add a little edge. Shop this look below! (PS - Use code "GLITTER25"for 25% off at restrictedshoes.com)

"She Laughs Without Fear of the Future" Proverbs 31:25

There are days when life is just plain hard. I find myself constantly worrying about my future. What will happen today, tomorrow, next week? The questions are never ending. But I've always sought comfort in God's word and the faith that He is in charge. This shirt features one of my all-time favorite verses, Proverbs 31:25, "She laughs without fear of the future". What an incredible reminder! There are days when life knocks me down and I'm overcome with anxiety and fear - but I am always comforted by the fact that God loves me, cares for me and has a plan for me. I'm not in control of my life, He is. 

This tee is from an incredible company called Cross Training Couture. They're a faith based company that offers inspiring fitness wear! If you haven't checked them out yet, be sure to stop by their site for a little positivity! Shop this look below!

Mad for Plaid

Okay, it's finally beginning to feel like fall and I could not be more ecstatic! Fall is my all-time favorite season - hot chocolate, fireplaces, crisp weather and pumpkin everything? There's nothing better! So in honor of the changing weather, I obviously had to bring out my favorite fall print - plaid! Who doesn't love a good plaid? I've got tons of plaid shirts (even a vest) - but can you believe that this is my first plaid dress?! Yeah - neither can I! How have I been living without this my entire life? Seriously goes with everything. I paired it with my military vest and booties here - but think how cute it will be with a sweater, leggings and riding boots once it's a little colder! Mine's from http://pureheartsboutique.com/ and will definitely be on repeat all season. Be sure to use code "MUSINGSOFGLITTER" for 20% off your purchase! Shop this look below!
