Cozy up, I have a story. I had a moment recently where I was riddled with thoughts & shoulds about my life. I realized I was feeling this deep sense of disconnect between my heart and my head. The shoulds in my mind were aggressive while my heart was longing for something entirely different that I just couldn’t put my finger on. Until one evening, while trying to quiet my mind I felt a stirring in my spirit that said, “Olivia, you don’t have to be extraordinary to be loved.” And it was in that moment that I realized I was allowing the perception of my success to outmeasure my worth. This is where I chose to press pause. When our priorities are out of balance and we aren’t pressing into what it’s in our hearts, every fascist of our lives will feel out of balance. It will never be worth sacrificing your peace to try and be accepted because of your status or accomplishments. It’s who we are, how we love & how we live that leaves a splash in the world. @mejuri #mejuri #mejuripartner .

Don’t be predictable with your style, add splashes of unexpected color and print, a hair scarf or pair of earrings a little outside of your comfort zone. Even if no one else notices, do it for you! (Chances are they will notice and they’ll feel inspired by your guts to give it a go!) Add something that you love but have been too nervous to try – most of the time you’ll feel more excited and confident the longer you wear it. Style isn’t about a certain shirt or accessory, it’s a representation of who you are! What words would you choose to describe your style? How about the words you would use to describe your personality? There is rarely just one word for either because we aren’t defined by one element, we are intricate and wonderfully complex! Just as our wardrobes should be! ? @kaleighdsimmonsphoto

But for reals, praise God for coffee, extra fuzzy sweaters and my daughters bright pink socks!

Anytime I see comfort and fashion collide I’m all about it! It’s so easy to overthink that combo – too boring, not cute enough, I’m not making a fashion statement… not even. Add a simple sparkly choker to an ivory sweater with some jeans and you’re golden! Easy. I’ll post some close ups of that combo soon along with a few easy ways to style your simpler sweaters! Yay!! Cozy up in your fav sweater today and escape the dreary weather with a friend for coffee! That always makes a dreary day more motivating! So does shopping, that’s never a bad idea. I’m coming for ya, Anthro! ? by @helloimemmaquinn
