SUPER bummed that my sweater and this amazing mini dress is currently sold out, BUT I decided to share some of my favorite mini dresses for Spring anyway!! I have so many favorites right now that I will share another post similar to this one in March some time! Spring is right around the corner and I am digging hard from inspiration! I love mini dresses! I think they are super girly and flattering! This one I would easily pair with a statement denim and a little ankle boot for the Winter feels.

I feel like the Winter actually flew by this year! It typically rains quite a bit in Northern California but didn’t at all this year, so I am happy! This particular dress is a deeper red/maroon(which I love), but I am finding myself reaching for brighter colors recently, like this one and this one as we head into the Spring! It is unbelievable that Spring is less than a month away! These last two weeks in particular have been unusually chilly and I am so ready for sunshine and warmer temps! How have you been fairing the Winter months?  Are you ready for Spring as well?

    The black with floral print is simply stunning. I typically stay away from prints but that doesn’t seem overpowering. I like to keep things simple and clean for the most part.

WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WITNESSED GOD DO IN YOUR LIFE?!✨🫶🏾🕊️❤️‍🔥🙌🏾🙏🏾🤍

I’ll go first!! Earlier this week I was just thinking about how faithful God has been to me over the years! I think we all go through different highs and lows, but it’s so good to stop and look back and remember what God has done! 

Back in 2008 when Ben and I just got married, the market had crashed. I had purchased a home on my own in CT- We lost the house and our cars were repossessed - I honestly felt like we would never recover from that!!! Not to mention, I felt so much failure and shame attached to that season!

Fast-forward to 2019, we begin working with our dear friend  @cody.d.williams  on purchasing our very first home together and he told us all the work that needed to be done with our credit,etc. we took a year and did everything we could to get things right! Not only were we able to purchase our first home together in 2019, but everything from the past was no longer a factor & two years later we were able to purchase an even more magnificent property that we now call home 🏡 

Why was this a miracle for me? I think because I thought we would always be behind & nothing would ever change. We rented for 7+ years before we were able to purchase a home as a married couple and that started to discourage me! 

Just a reminder that little miracles happen everyday and that your worst is never the worst.  God can turn your situation around in a moment!!! The BEST is yet to COME!!! Keep believing ⭐️

Earlier this week, I had the privilege of spending Earlier this week, I had the privilege of spending some quality time with other incredible creators at a retreat with @parkermanagement 🤍 It really felt like a retreat for my soul ✨Napa is also reallly good at forcing you to slow down and take in the gorgeous views 😌

Spending time with these wonderful humans this week reminded me that I still belong here, even though I might not look like everyone else (or feel like I fit in) that’s the beauty of it all right?

I think after doing something for a very long time and in this space specifically, it’s easy to feel imposter syndrome, self doubt and the inability to “keep up”. Although an app or an industry has changed over time it’s so important to stay true to yourself.

 So grateful for this time away & I’m leaving with my cup overflowing! God is always on time with these types of things. Just when we need another boost or some encouragement, He sends all the right people your away! He is just good like that 🤩
