Mixed Prints Featuring Rire Boutique

April 13, 2016 By Ruthie Ridley 48 Comments

Today is day 3 of our #SCSpringStyle challenge! On Monday  I shared about our quarterly challenge that we are doing on IG with Style Collective. We are having an absolute blast! I am fully enjoying everyone’s looks and how they are styling pieces based on each day’s theme! So much creativity and positive energy flowing around! It’s like a week long fashion party!! 

Today is all about mixing prints! I had the awesome privelage of collaborating with Rire Boutique on this one. Their boutique is located down here in Sacramento. I love working with small shops! Owner, Josie takes pride in the beautiful items that she hand picks from LA. She does an incredible job. Everything I am wearing in the photos below are from  Rire, with the exception of my shoes. I am obsessed with the linen fabric, beautiful prints and the pops of color!  In all honesty, mixing prints isn’t what I do naturally so I had to step a bit out of the box! I had fun styling this look!! What do you think?! Thanks for stopping by today!!! Much love,
Ruthie xo

    Ruthie, this is a PERFECT print mixing example. Not too much, the fabrics look flawless together and I love those light airy colors on you. With the heel too, the LEG looks banging.
    Can’t wait to see what all the babes come up with! 🙂

    The the very next time I just read a weblog, Lets hope it doesnt disappoint me about this. Get real, Yes, it was my choice to read, but I really thought youd have some thing interesting to say. All I hear is a few whining about something you could fix if you ever werent too busy in search of attention.

I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but why not 🤪. I left the worst ones out 😅

Online hate is wild to me. People behind a screen saying whatever they want not realizing it actually affects real people.

I posted a simple cute video of Ben and I going from regular clothes to our work uniforms. it went viral, which is a chance you take so I got a lot of love which I’m thankful for but a lot of hate as well.. these were all strangers, people who don’t know that we’ve been married almost 18 years, have a beautiful family, genuinely love each other, and love what we do and the people we serve 👮‍♂️ 👩🏾‍⚕️ 🩺 

You expect it to some extent but I didn’t realize how much words could still affect me…I’m 41 almost 42. It really doesn’t matter how old you are words still hit.

I’m not sharing this for sympathy just a reminder before you leave a mean comment on someone’s page whether it’s a stranger, someone you know, or someone with a big platform think twice. Words matter & they  impact people more than you think.

And don’t worry I got a new wig this week 😝💀🤣

This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my Nursing 🩺👩🏾‍⚕️ license after leaving my job in 2020 and spending five years at home with my kids creating content full time. To say I was shocked to be reentering the workforce is an understatement. Sometimes life shifts and you just have to roll with it 😮‍💨

I am SO thankful I had the opportunity to go back to work but it was hard. I felt like I failed in my business & I was down BAD 😝 But I realized something….God makes NO MISTAKES.

I LOVE my current job & I STILL get to create content, but now it feels more authentic and true to who I am😌

I am dancing because I can & because I am thankful. Your life can change SO much in a year, overnight or In a MOMENT. Trust God with your life. He will NEVER let you down 🤍
The Cop 👮‍♂️/ Nurse 👩🏾‍⚕️Comb The Cop 👮‍♂️/ Nurse 👩🏾‍⚕️Combo😝!!! You already know life is crazy, there is no “work-life balance” & we have stories to exchange for dayyys!!! 

If you’re new here, then I’ll give you a little bit of a backstory but also if you’ve been here for a while because a lot has changed in the last year 🤪. 

I became a nurse at 19 after graduating high school early, raised in a very purpose driven Jamaican home. Nursing was never just a job for me. It was provision, connection, and a way to serve people from all walks of life.

In 2020, I stepped away from nursing to pursue content creation full time, and it truly felt like a dream!!! The biggest blessing was the time it gave me with my family. Being present, raising my kids, and soaking in every moment 🥲

Then almost exactly a year ago, May 15, God called me back to nursing, and I couldn’t believe it. The transition was not easy, but it has been one of the greatest blessings. My heart is so full, and I have never felt more aligned in what I do.

God knows what He is doing. He makes no mistakes 🤍 Where are my nurses, law enforcement, and first responders at 🙋🏾‍♀️
