Travel Style

January 27, 2018 By Ruthie Ridley 91 Comments

Travel in style at a price you can afford! Sharing key pieces from my wardrobe that I travel in for less than 50.00! No need to break the bank while traveling in style!

Ben and I are actually in the middle of wrapping up our very first staycation together here in Sacramento! We are seriously having the time of our lives!! Lots of rest mostly which we both desperately needed!! We are headed on a few trips coming up in February and March alone and we are stoked for those as well! Since we are doing some traveling over the next couple months I figured I would share a brief travel style post! I like to travel in style but mostly comfort! I have been HUGE into Adidas lately and converse is a lifer, so here is my outfit! I carried this look with me this weekend as well! The sweatshirt is currently 40% off and selling FAST you can snag it here.  My pants are only 40.00 and SO comfy! They come in two colors and I LOVE! You can grab those here.  My converse are classics and so easy to run around in, if you don’t have a pair, what are you waiting for!? You can grab a pair here! I can’t wait to share all the photos from this weekend at the Sawyer Hotel, Y’all are going to loveee! Next month we head to Mexico, March is Ohio & San Diego and then I go to Alabama in April for the first time ever! I can’t wait!! Where are you headed this year?!

    My wife and i ended up being very relieved that Ervin managed to finish up his basic research from the precious recommendations he gained while using the web site. It’s not at all simplistic just to find yourself releasing information which men and women could have been making money from. So we fully grasp we have got the blog owner to appreciate for that. All of the illustrations you made, the simple web site navigation, the relationships your site aid to promote – it’s got many great, and it is leading our son in addition to our family know that the concept is fun, which is certainly truly mandatory. Thank you for all the pieces!

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 🙋🏾‍♀️

Just stopping your scroll this evening to say GOD Just stopping your scroll this evening to say GOD IS GREAT. There are seasons where God takes years and decades to answer prayers (and I’m still waiting for some of those) and then there’s the moments where God answers your prayers hours or a day later. He’s amazing in the suddenly and he’s amazing in the waiting. Thankful for the journey✨Thankful for his faithfulness - thankful that even as I wait - He is still good😌

The way she spoke about healing, freedom, and using your own story to create change was both powerful and deeply moving. Her journey is a reminder that what we walk through doesn’t have to define us — but it can shape the way we serve others.

If you haven’t listened yet, this is your sign.
