Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

It is that time of year again, the most anticipated Nordstrom anniversary sale. This year they are doing things a little differently and instead of the catalog they are hosting a preview starting on July 24th. This is a great time to go through the sale and add items you want to your wish list to help make shopping easier for you when it is your turn to shop. I have put together five collages of my favorite picks and explained all the details to make it as easy as I can for you to score BIG.

Nordstrom cardholders will have the opportunity to shop the sale early depending on their cardholder status.

Daily God Time

When I decided to start a blog with faith being a category, this post was the first one I thought of. This is a topic that really hits home for me and something I am really passionate about. If you have not read my post “My Baptism Story” I highly suggest you go and read it. A devotional is what started my journey of re-devoting myself to god. I always say (to myself), a devotional a day keeps the negative thoughts away and that could not be more true. I strongly believe there are multiple benefits to reading a devotional.

How I curl my hair

Hey loves! So I thought I would finally post the most anticipated video, how I curl my hair. I use a Hot Tools Signature Series in Gold curling iron, size 1.25. I spray my hair first with Aveda Heat Relief thermal protector & conditioning mist. This heat protectant can be sprayed on dry hair and not leave the hair wet like most.

My baptism story

My baptism video

Growing up church was just something that was a part of my routine. Every Sunday we would get up and go to Sunday school. My mother would pack a bag of snacks and activities to keep my brother and I busy during the service. Then after we would go out to eat as a family, that was my favorite part. It was not until I moved to Chicago in 2015 that I really began to explore my faith. I moved for an ex boyfriend, hoping that if I moved there we would get back together…crazy, I know! My aunt growing up would give me a devotional every year for my baptism birthday and to be honest I threw most away. One night I was at my lowest, so alone, so depressed, and felt so unloved. I rolled over and opened my nightstand drawer, sitting right in front of me was the last devotional she got me. I turned it over and the first line on the back was “You are not alone, you have hope. Every minute of every day you are loved.” I remember being like “okay, okay, I hear ya.” I opened it and read almost the entire daily devotional in one night.

My first post!

Hey Loves. I can not believe it, I am writing my first blog post! I have always wanted to start a blog, I just never had the time to sit down and do it. I am someone who needs to research and map out everything before diving in head first. I would say I get that from my mom and papa (what I call my late grandfather).
