People often wonder what outfits they can wear with my inspirational jewelry. When they come by CIC's booth at shows they are trying to picture what outfit they have, in what colors ect. So I thought I would do a series showing outfits that my handmade jewelry would go great with! Hope you enjoy!

Let's begin!

I found this over at Polyvore! I love love love this outfit! Don't you??

The blouse, pencil skirt, and belt are HOT!!! 

 I love the shoes too but they are a bit high for me lol.

3 Ways To Remind Yourself You are Beautiful!

Blessings everyone!


I would like to touch on a subject today that affects all of us. In one way or another we all want to feel beautiful. This is a habit that must be formed just like anything else. Sometimes we believe that if it isn't an automatic feeling or belief that it isn't true. But lifelong successes happen through practice! We may have been told in our early years that we are not pretty, handsome, attractive, or whatever. Who cares what they say because guess what??

That's right! God Made You Beautiful! Whether others chose to believe this about you is THEIR business and not your own! It is our business to believe and KNOW that God created us beautiful individually and to live His purpose. We should be seeking His acceptance and approval, not the world's. As mentioned before this may not be easy but takes some practice! Remember Phil. 4:13! 


Here are a few inspirational tips to remind yourself that you are beautiful!


1. Say it! Over and over again! As many times as you need to...i.e. your whole life! Replace one negative thought a day with the phrase 'You are Beautiful'. Seriously! I sometimes look in the mirror and say to myself, You are beautiful girl. Lol! I still don't fully believe it sometimes, but there are some days where I am like, I know that is right lol!!


2. Take good care of YOU! Eat healthy meals and exercise. I have found a new passion for finding healthy ways to eat and feed my little ones. I want to eat healthy before I am forced to! The exercise I love most is dance! I can put on some good music and just dance away! It is so fun and expressive! A great stress reliever too! When we treat ourselves good, we feel good! :)


3. Seek the beauty around you! I really love nature and water. SO Relaxing!! When I take the time to sit back and enjoy beautiful pictures of nature or spend time with my hubby near the water or at a nice park, it is so wonderful! I feel so connected to the earth and it's elements! In turn, I feel beautiful as well!

How do you remind yourself that you are beautiful everyday?

5th Annual Women's Empowerment Conference!

Blessings loves!!


In May I had the pleasure of attending the 5th Annual Women's Empowerment Conference in Houston, Texas! I had such a wonderful time! It was great to connect with other women entrepreneurs and learn from so many talented women! I was greeted by this beautiful painting which was also displayed on the programs and bags.

The wonderful greeters at the registration table!

The conference began with a wonderful intro and poetry piece encouraging each of us to Celebrate You!

Mary Foley spoke about living like our nail color! 

Her high energy presentation was full of real life references, comedy, and 

self esteem building advice. I loved her and 

bought one of her cds too lol!

I couldn't get a good picture of her but this is one of her slides. 

Reminds me of her as a cartoon lol.

Check her out at Increasing Busy Women's Sanity, Confidence, & Fun!

I attended a social media class presented by Crystal Washington. 

We have been connected on facebook and I love seeing her social media tips. 

When I saw she would be there I was like man, I need to be there!

She is such a sweet heart and knows her stuff too!

Check her out at Crystal Washington!

I attended several other classes, enjoyed a great lunch while networking, and met some wonderful vendors!

Lastly was A Conversation With Kim Coles where she discussed her struggles and triumphs and her program Opening Our G.I.F.T.S. 

It was very interactive and I loved how humble and down to earth Ms. Coles is!

At the end we had a chance to speak with her and get her autograph. 

I used to LOVE watching Living Single so I was like :-O!!!!

 I gave her a pair of our Dove hoops (you can see them here) and she loved them! 

I was so shocked lol! 

Check her out at The Real Kim Coles!

10 Day Eat Clean Challenge!

Blessings everyone! 

I recently signed up for a 10 Day Eat Clean Challenge with Casey Sollock!

It started this Monday and I have really enjoyed it! Each day she emails us healthy eating info, recipes, sites, and a scripture to keep up going. She has us laying off land meats (chicken, pork, beef, turkey), sugar, and dairy. We are eating seafood, lots of fruit, veggies, and whole grains because it it easier to digest. Let's not forget our smoothies everyday!! I have learned a lot about the alkaline balance in my body and what acidosis does to many of us because of poor eating!

What has helped a lot is she created a private Facebook group with 290+ members who are participating and it is really wonderful! It is great to see others struggles and triumphs during the challenge! It keeps us going and we know we aren't alone!

A quick shopping trip to Kroger on Wednesday!

My first Quinoa dish! 

This was my first time trying it and I must say it was delish! 

The babies ate it up and my hubby said it was interesting but good lol.

Quiona, green beans, chopped carrots, kale, chopped garlic, sliced red pepper, sliced green pepper, lime juice, olive oil, and Mrs. Dash fiesta lime seasoning!

Fourth of July treat! The babies loved it!

My Friday smoothie yum!

My Sat. breakfast smoothie: 

Spinach, half an apple, tsp of peanut butter, flax seed, walnuts, honey, cinnamon, almond plus almond milk (has 5g protein).

This was my lunch...a yummy salad!
