I’m thankful tomorrow is Monday. I’m ready for a new week, another fresh start & another chance to make an ordinary week a memorable one. Too many weeks go by too quickly where I forget what I even did! I’m all about relaxing but I feel it all the way to my core that this season of my life isn’t simply for relaxing. It’s for investing, being intentional, operating outside of my comfort zone, pouring my heart into my dreams, my kids, my marriage, my church. This season of my life feels heavily strategic to my future, my career, my family, my spirit & my heart. I was challenged recently to focus on my emotional and spiritual needs more than I tend to focus on other people’s. Not in a ‘think about yourself and forget about those a-holes!’ Kind of way… more like, take the hint when your emotional investments aren’t healthy for you. Make some changes so that you’re positioned for success & not to get hit square in the heart by a fiery dart of emotional & spiritual turmoil. Maybe that seems obvious, but for me sometimes it takes more effort to remember to make sure that I’m in a healthy spot emotionally, spiritually & physically before I have anything healthy to offer anyone else & so that I am the best possible version of myself for my family, my business and for MYSELF. I’m feeling some deep things in my spirit this week & I’m excited to move forward with fresh perspective & a renewed mind! #hereiamsendme ? @kelseyhettinga

The necklace, the jacket & the comfort of this black dress have me dancing through my week and feeling excited about new clients and styling sessions this week! It’s a good one! ? @kelseyhettinga

“Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.” – Golda Meir

So, what is it?! What’s the tiny, inner spark of possibility living inside of you? It’s crazy that it’s such a normal thing for people to think they don’t have what it takes to see their sparks, their dreams, fanned into achievements. I was one of those people until I really understood that there are others who need me and what I have to offer, my dreams aren’t limited only to my success. There have been people along the way that I have desperately needed to help me with my spark too! I need the people who are great at organization, who’s talents are marketing, social media and web developing; people whose dreams look so different from mine but were such an important part of fanning my possibility into achievement. And each of those people didn’t make great achievements on their own either, so remember that you’re not alone! There is a network of people that can help you bring those dreams, those sparks of possibility to life! It’s so much easier to believe in yourself when you have so many others who believe in you, want to help you and who need what you have offer! ? @kelseyhettinga

This tiny gent is one of the reasons I do what I do. He is wild and sincere and when he wants something he is relentless and passionate! Maybe because he’s 2 & driven by emotion or maybe because they’re the gifts Jesus created him with! I see a boy that will grow into a passionate, driven, motivated and spirited man! I hope to nurture & guide his liveliness instead of ever making him feel that his spirit needs to calm down. As a mama you get stretched in patients and self control, sometimes I have movements of total defeat and feelings of exhaustion in all avenues possible. But I also have countless chances to be stretched in creativity, motivation, dedication and love. It’s through my experience as a mom that I’ve built endurance, confidence, motivation, follow through & problem solving and it’s through their eyes and words that I feel like I am capable of achieving anything I put my heart into. They help me to see my moments of failure and self doubt as opportunities to improve & grow because that’s how I taught them to see themselves! It’s interesting when those life lessons are forgotten by us when it pertains to us! I’m just having one of those weeks where I’m feeling things pretty deep I guess, letting the Lord show me His relevance and presence in my life. Of course my kids are always one of the ways He gets to my heart! Ps. His CURLS!!!

These guys keep me on my toes! Not only in case I need to tap into my inner Wonder Woman to catch them mid fall or activate my laser vision to remind them I can most definitely see everything, at all times… but also with my wardrobe! (Anticlimactic?! It’ll always come back to the wardrobe with me, I mean c’mon! I’m a stylist!) I want to be able to wear the cute dresses and heels and white too!! I think a lot of moms think those options are entirely unavailable with little, messy monsters running in circles in around them. But I’ve got a trick or 2 that say otherwise! Moms, I know you can feel like your identity gets lost in the shuffle of motherhood! One of the things that’s kept me feeling like ME, Olivia, with my own identity and desires is being able to feel good about myself. Feeling like I’m not destined to be a frump or wear the not-so-trendy kind of mom jeans. But I CAN dress trendy and wear the things I love in ways that make them practical for my lifestyle! If you need some help mamas, that’s why I’m here! I get you!! Email me and we can set up a time to chat about it and get to work on your style! Oliviajanae.stylist@gmail.com

This is the look the hubs gets when he decides to crack a joke and my food hasn’t arrived yet. I was hangry, it’s true. So, a glare it is for you my love. Sorrrry! He didn’t get a picture after I ate, if he had it would have been my head thrown back 2 feet and belly laughing. It would have been ugly kids!! But joyful none the less! Ps. If you live in GR head to Butchers Union, you’ll thank me! The sangria is booommmb & the food… yaaaassss!! #goingon10years ———————————–#marriage #westilldate #fashionstylist #fashionpost #hat #grandrapids #michigan #sassy #hangry #smallbusiness #girlboss #goforit #dreamchaser #personalstylist

If you didn’t know already, I love mixing pattern & texture! It’s just so much goodness for the eyes to behold!! Yeeaaah and this is the same scarf from my previous post about mixing patterns – peek back a few posts and look how different the two looks are but how well the same scarf compliments each outfit! This little guy took a smooth dive into the go-to section of my closet, love when that happens!! Did you know you can have accessories that fit better into your 80% key pieces & not only into your 20% statement pieces?! (That’s for those girls whose like a carefully curated closet!) accessories are easy to overlook but SO necessary to complete a wardrobe. If you want to find those perfect key pieces for your personal style, email me! Let’s go shopping!! Oliviajanae.stylist@gmail.com

It can be tricky to find those little details in your personal style that really make you feel great about what you’ve got on and that make your style yours. It was by accident that I discovered how much I love mixing patterns that some people might think don’t actually work well together. (This is one of those, ‘I don’t care what you think, I feel great!’ situations.) Patterns have the potential to accommodate each other so nicely as well as add an extra element of fun to your look! So go for it!! See what patterns work in your wardrobe and then send me a picture of what you come up with! I wanna see makes you feel beautiful & excited about your style! Ps. Shout out to those peonies because, woah. So pretty. ? @kelseyhettinga —————-

Awwwwe snap!! There’s that white tee again! But this time all I did was add a layer & a necklace with a little more bling. Adding a light chambray piece to a white tee shirt gives it a totally different feel, It quickly becomes more playful and casual! And then throwing in the sparkle adds some fun depth, a mix of simple & classy. You could also change out the jeans for some waxed black denim or a simple patterned pencil skirt. There is a way to style these pieces to fit every one of you! Add splashes of YOU & the things that make you feel beautiful! Maybe it’s buttoning the chambray, knotting the tee, adding a sparkly pendant necklace… the options are limitless! Sometimes it just takes a little bit of help to figure out how many of those options will work for you! I want to help!! Email me if you’d like any help styling your wardrobe or adding key pieces to make your wardrobe more versatile. The easier, the better! Olivia@livstyled.com
