Women supporting women

 

I've been thinking a lot about the term "Women supporting women".  In my entire life I have only had a few friends who really embodied that term. Ones who will go above and beyond to show support for you, be your biggest cheerleader. Free of jealousy, comparison, and drama. Why is that so hard to find? Why is it a term so hard to grasp for women. I know there is the part where you don't feel good enough where you are at. Whether its professionally, physically, spiritually etc. There's always going to be that mentality tucked down deep down inside, that someone is better than you or that they have a life that you want. 

It's time to break free of that mindset and get to working on yourself. 

I think when we are fulfilled in our own lives, focused on doing what God has called us to do, then we can't even see what other people are doing. 

 

After a very difficult month. I realize even more now the importance of having your people. There's no time for us women to cause problems with each other. Not when we are dealing with our own day to day stuff, or dealing with real life issues. 

It goes back to the golden rule "Treat others how you want to be treated". Seems simple enough right?

I completely understand being pitted against one another. Maybe it starts in our youth. You have friends who ditch you because they like someone better. You get dumped for someone else in a relationship. It’s hard to get through those things. I wish it weren’t like this. I wish we could bypass all that time that it takes us to get to the place where we are confident in ourselves. So that we can know that we are worth so much. We are valuable. Maybe that’s the foundation of the issue? 

I’m so glad that I have a group of friends who support one another, encourage each other. It takes time to find the right people you can trust, that you feel safe with. Just know that they are out there. You just have to look for them.

 It's hard to not fall in love when you see this color. This rich dark green gives me holiday vibes all day long! It's velvet on top of that, with tiny flecks of gold. I had to have it for Christmas. I paired it with my over the knee boots and my leather moto jacket. Perfection! I love this look so much!

 Don't you love a transitional piece? I bought this romper this summer and it's so comfortable and cute. Easily transitional to winter, just layer it with a tee shirt, sweater, tights, and boots, done and done. Do you have a fun transitional piece?

12 Days of Christmas Outfits: Day 4 {Hipster}

 I can't wear this plaid wrap jacket without thinking of Scotland. It's so comfy and cozy and perfect for going to church during December, or a casual Christmas outfit. Let's face it the best Christmas outfit is a casual one. It's fun to dress up but if you are going from one families house to another you need to be able to move. Plus a fun quote on a basic white tee is the best! "Girls can do anything" it's true now and it will be true tomorrow.
