I wear glasses for blue light protection and Benjamin just got a new prescription late last year. He was on patrol when he realized while driving at night it was becoming more and more difficult to read street signs. We started looking to Eyeglass World last year and it has been the best decision we have made! One of our favorite things about @eyeglassworld is that the day you get your eye exam is the day you get your glasses! Best part is you can always find a two pair for $78 deal every single day! Both Ben and I feel pretty cool in these specs! What do you guys think about our new frames?! #EGWpartner 📸 @etchedintime_photography

I discovered the importance of stretching the hard I discovered the importance of stretching the hard way last year! On my last few days of my job in nursing I literally had so much pain in my left hip while walking! I went to my chiropractor, they did x-rays and found out I had hip bursitis🤦🏾‍♀️ WUTTTT?! I’m not 90! Yes!! All the years of running, half marathon training, soccer etc. never stretching, it caught up! Now I go to the chiropractor every week and I do stretch LOL! Stretch people🤣
 
In other news I am wearing head to toe @Athleta!! I have raved about this brand for years! So versatile, comfortable and timeless! The best news however is, now they have launched their expanded range of styles in 1X to 3X sizes. Their sizes now go from XXS to 3X. This is so important and makes me happy!! We should all be able to walk into any store and find our size in the clothes we love! #ad #athleta #PowerOfShe @athleta @shopstylecollective 📸 @itserikachristine
Story time 😁! Best and or worst date you’ve e Story time 😁! Best and or worst date you’ve ever been on- Go!!

Confession: I didn’t date anyone before Ben. He was my first boyfriend at 22 years old 😳and so I don’t have a lot of stories to tell except about our first date which was probably my favorite. 

I was super self-conscious about the fact that I wore wigs and with him being a cute Caucasian male- (he’s actually British!) I didn’t think he would fully grasp the concept of wigs and extensions so I felt the need to tell him on our first date🤣. We were in an IKEA parking lot and I wrote it on a piece of paper “I wear wigs like Beyoncé!” handed it to him and ran away LOL! Of course he said “that’s awesome!“ And my anxiety was lifted. 📸 @itserikachristine

Kicking off another week in February in celebratio Kicking off another week in February in celebration of Black history month with my friends at Vera Bradley! First of all they launched this incredible unity tote!! #LetsComeTogether 

Second, they are committed to fostering inclusion within their community. They are donating $20,000 to Women Who Create, which provides scholarships and mentorships to young creatives identifying as women of color in fashion, advertising, music and tech. Y’all this is huge! Everyone wants to be seen, heard and celebrated for who they are in this life. 

“Red and yellow black and white they are precious in his sight, Jesus loves the little children of the world!”

In the simplicity of this old children’s song we are reminded that representation matters and we are all seen equally in His sight! Let’s continue to celebrate our differences, talents, cultures and who we were created to be on this beautiful planet!#verabradley #verabradleypartner
