Growing up in the 90’s, I can distinctly remember admiring the fashion sense of the fashionable women within my sphere of influence: my mom, TLC, Aaliyah, etc. And to be honest, I think the sentiment of that nostalgia is carried over to my personal style when it comes to urban looks. Believe it I’ve had this sweater for an unbelievable amount of time, 5th grade maybe? The harem pants were simply a great find years ago and the boots are a classic story of falling in love with a shoe. I initially passed on them because they were out of my price range only to come across a picture of them in my phone moths later and call DSW. Not only did they still have them but they were on SALE!!! I got these bad boys for a deduction of 70’s off the original price! God is real haha

Thursday’s are my busiest day out of the week per default. Let’s see how I manage pulling together a look comfortable enough for social media work at the salon, cute enough for dinner and clean cut enough for a political fundraiser…

Have a great day! Peace, Love & Sunshine -Chelsea

Good Times

To say the least I am a music junkie, and whenever I get a little free time, I’m on a mission to stock my music library. This look was a true test of efficiency. Both the sweatshirt and the shorts are from Forever 21, but I picked a dressier short that would transition well to night time.

Also, I am singing the praises of those gems above. Comfortability is everything!  I was on my feet for about twelve hours– my BCBG heels made it through a full day of social media work capturing clients at the salon, dinner out and a concert to see my favorite group Toro y Moi. Ironically my knees were hurting more that my feet at the end of the night from dancing -the shame haha

Some days everything goes right huh? Have an awesome weekend!

What I’m Wearing– Earrings: Forever 21, Eagle Ring: Forever 21, Chain Ring: Handmade, Pants: Nordstrom Rack, Booties: Lucky Brand, Chain Bracelet: Vintage, Chain Necklace: Method Boutique

No lie, this is one of my favorite looks in a long time. I had about 8 minutes to get dressed and head out the door. It’s fall, and it was fun to dip back into the feel of being a student on campus again. Isn’t it funny how it seems that the less an outfit is planned the better it turns out? Have an awesome weekend!

A Confident Expectation

Grey really is my favorite color to wear. I can’t get enough of it, and my new sweatshirt from Forever 21 is just simple enough to dress up (like I did for church) or down when I’m on the run.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve come across people who have corrected me whenever I used phrases with the word hope…”I hope such and such comes to pass.” “I’m hoping it’ll happen.” etc. Evidently, some people feel it suggests a lack of confidence in the desired outcome. Well, Sunday at church our pastor introduced me to a new way to look at the word hope. He shared with us that the biblical definition of hope is, “A confident expectation of WHAT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE.”

To say the least, I have marinated in the awesomeness of this new definition and the following quote he shared, “Lord, I have faith in you. I believe my future is better than my past. I’m putting my trust in you.” 

This year has been filled with a series of highs and lows, and I rest in the peace of knowing that there are so many sources of positive thinking around me. Never lose sight of the vision God has set before you. Whether that’s regarding your career, your purpose or relationships. I’m hoping to see the fullness of all His wonderful promises in the near future! Be blessed.
