plaid and peplum, oh my!

It’s no surprise to anyone that I love finding little instagram boutiques. Although, somehow they always find me. Like there’s a huge selling community between them all and there’s huge flashing letters that say “MARY POWERS IS A SUCKER” haha! But it’s true that I do love to shop small. You can find some super cute things and usually the price is great. Don’t get me wrong, I love my Nordstrom, Zara, and Old Navy, but it’s good to support small businesses too! Don’t forget about them! Instagram is a great place to do that. So, this top is from an Instagram shop and you can find her HERE.

I paired it with my favorite grey booties, which are sadly no longer available but I linked a similar pair. I also paired it with a denim jacket because I ♥ denim on denim!

How was everyone’s weekend? Today I posted a quote on Instagram That says, “Life is tough, but so are you” and I fully agree with that. There are some days (like yesterday) where I feel like crawling under a rock and not coming out till 2020, but unfortunately I can’t do that. I have to keep moving, and I realized that I am equipped with the tools I need TO KEEP MOVING! I am strong enough, I am brave enough, I CAN DO THIS. The past few months have been a little challenging for me in a few areas and I could choose to give up and become a recluse, but I am not a quitter. I choose to keep going and to fight. I’m not sure why I’m saying all this. Pretty sure no one cares, but maybe someone who reads this needs to hear it! It’s so easy to be down on yourself and feel like giving up when you make a mistake or fail at something. It takes SO much more courage and strength to get back up and KEEP MOVING. Try and make right whatever you did or failed at, and keep going. It’s not worth it to stay stuck on that failure. There is so much good ahead, if you keep going. Focus on the positive things in your life and focus on the good. We all fail and we all make mistakes. That’s why God is so good, because He forgives us or everything we do! He never remembers our failures, so you shouldn’t get stuck on it either.

You are all enough!!! Don’t forget it 🙂

Happy Monday ♥
