Sparkle Belt

Yesterday, I had to run errands, do groccery shopping, etc..which means my whole day I am running around on the bus, walking, etc..( no car)..So I found this belt at a little store for ONE dollar...and it goes so well with so much. I immediately added it to my outfit.

I also added it to my dress today!! Love it..
I have not been shopping for clothes in MONTHS!! Most of my clothes are thrifted and ONE DOLLAR and I work within my closet. I LOOOOOOVE putting outfits together and having fun with my clothing..I think of new ideas daily.

:)

Adds some shine and fun to my leggings and skirt look

This beautiful dress I thrifted for one dollar last year..I love the colors and design and can wear it so many ways..Today I wore it over a lace T, and tan cardigan. The belt adds an extra splash!!
Oh how I love being a GIRL!!! what FUN!!!
Thank You Jehovah God for making me female...Because I sooooo ENJOY it. :)

African Friends at the memorial^..I love the way they use the same Fabrics to make matching outfits. So beautiful and colorful.

My whole life someone was telling me I wasnt cute enough, I needed to "tone down"..I needed to be this, Or that, Or My hair wasnt right..Or why didnt I "act like this" or "act like that"...I am Sooooo glad I am finally at a point where ALL I care about is pleasing Jehovah God. And yeah, I try not to offend anyone on purpose but no matter WHAT I do, someone ALWAYS gets niffed..so SCREW IT!!!! Seriously..Some people need a BEAT DOWN...
They tell you to "be yourself" and someone will LOVE you. That isnt always the case.
Sometimes all people see are your supposed flaws and they nit pick you to death.
NEVER ALLOW anyone to KILL YOUR SOUL or your creativity.
We are all allowed to express ourselves within reason..
Consider Jehovah God first, and then if others dont like it, that's too bad.
You cannot be anyones puppet. AMEN.

LOVE to all...
Life is a Work in Progress.
May we continue to Learn, Grow and GET back up when we fall. :)

And you know there have been times in my life when I felt so bad about myself I wanted to die. I allowed others to make me feel inferior. I thought when someone I liked didnt like me back that I was worthless. But I rose above that. I really appreciate myself now. Sure, I have low times...But I have COME INTO MY OWN. AMEN.

^ so cute.

Another Collage made by me..Beautiful Children of the World..I snuk Kaleb in there on the top, and Kyu's daughter Jasmine

Some of my fave looks this year..I had fun putting these outfits together..I am savoring the moments since I will not be this "young" again until the new system. :)

As you can see, I LOVE color!!! and prints!! I really supress a lot of what I would wear if I didnt have boundaries..But this way, it makes it FUN and challenging to express myself within reason.
Again, I do not wear short skirts around town unless I am wearing pants, leggings or tights, and I try to express my individual style in a "modest" and tasteful way..Of course there is a time and place to wear each outfit. I would not wear jeans to a christian meeting. Or a bathing suit to the store..etc...

 

From 2000-2006 I didnt care what I wore..As long as it was clean.

I didnt buy ONE item of clothing and I was so depressed I just wore ANYTHING..but fashion has always been who I am..I LOVE to express myself and have FUN with clothing...I don't spend a fortune on clothing..I cant afford it. I must be very thrifty...Like I said, the last time I shopped was months ago, and I bought items for ONE dollar..I can STRETCH my wardrobe into endless combinations..that is the FUN of it..:)

My blog is about ANYTHING that interests me..and I go through phases of what takes my fancey..but Fashion, Clothing and Fabrics will always be a part of who I am.

 I have always enjoyed just sitting down with a blank paper and pen and sketching ideas..from as young as I can remember..I always saw the ART in clothing and have had endless ideas...the THRILL of being female to me, is dressing up!!!

I really appreciate ethnic fashions from around the world..I get inspired when I see what people come up with and how beautiful and unique people are all around the world.
