This is a late post, I know. But, better late than never, right !?! I hope all the mothers out there had a wonderful Mother's day and your day was full of love and positivity. I hope the new mom's hearts swelled as they received their hand made cards with the glued on macaroni and painted hand prints all over it. And I hope the seasoned mothers got the chance to relax and pamper themselves. And to the mother's that are trying and have yet to receive their bundles from the stork, I especially hope you know this day belongs to you as well. The heart of a woman is enormous and is built to endure more than what we can actually comprehend. Your hearts are, I believe, to be the strongest and most pure. Never lose hope.
I was blessed and most fortunate to be raised by a woman who is both my Mother and Father. A single mother who worked a demanding job as a Paralegal and went to school at nights and still managed to raise three young girls. I know it wasn't easy for her. However, growing up I had no idea that times were hard and that financially we were struggling. And with me being so unaware of the fact that my family was barely getting by, I never felt like I had a disadvantage from the other kids in my neighborhood. I still to this day have no idea how my mother managed to keep me and my other sisters completely unaware to the fact that we were struggling at times. As I write this I am getting choked up because my heart is just so full of love for this woman. My mother taught me to fight for what I believe in and to never let anyone or anything stand in the way of my vision. God knew I needed you to be my mom.
The outfit for today's post is pretty simple. Chambray tops go with everything and florals are just a must for Sundays. At least that's what I believe anyway. I wore my tribal statement necklace to kind of take apart the girly look the floral skirt gives off. I tied in the colors from the pattern of the skirt with my orange purse to break up some of the business from the overall look. This look is both "Mom" appropriate and "casual lunch date" appropriate. Whatever "appropriate" look you're going for, make sure you wear the best accessory: Confidence!!
Until next time guys,
Xoxo
