Back in February, a representative from Thread Tank reached out to me for a collaboration. I had never heard of this company, so I looked them up. I discovered that they are an apparel company that creates graphic tops for women, men, and toddlers. Their tops display words and phrases that fit your mood and speak your story. As their motto implies, their tops are “stories you can wear.” (more…)
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! St. Patrick, patron saint of Ireland, had an interesting life. He was kidnapped into slavery by Irish pirates when he was just 16-years old. While enslaved, St. Patrick worked as a shepherd and learned the Irish language. During this time, he found comfort in prayer and developed a relationship with God.

Obeying God’s advice, St. Patrick indeed found a ship that sailed him home. (more…)

Lincoln’s spectacular view: the Reflecting Pool, Washington Monument, and Capitol. 🙂
These shots were taken the week after Thanksgiving. I usually take that week off to do the majority of my Christmas shopping and put up the tree.

Dad had been wanting to photograph at this location since I started my blog in 2015. It was the perfect time of year too with minimal crowds. (more…)

Last week I shared outfit 1 celebrating the Washington Nationals 2019 World Series Championship win. I dubbed it my “All American Girl” look. This week, I am sharing outfit 2 which I have labeled my “Vixen” look. To me, it’s amazing how a pair of black backseam pantyhose can elevate an outfit from cute to SEXY! (more…)

I adore XOXO’s mid-calf snake print slouch boots! Snake print is having a moment and I had been coveting snake print boots for some time now, but could never find a pair that felt right to me until these caught my eye. I had to have them! Fortunately, they were on sale and I purchased them immediately. (more…)
I hope y’all had a wonderful weekend. My weekend was full of adventure. If you read my Gettysburg post, I called out my best guy friend, William. He is a history enthusiast and an expert on Southern Maryland history, particularly John Wilkes Booth’s escape after assassinating President Abraham Lincoln. Booth found his way to Southern Maryland seeking help from Dr. Samuel A. Mudd to treat his broken leg. (more…)
