the greatest beauty truths we can ever know | #thebeautybalance

I’ve been diving right into this 31 Day Writing Challenge, where each blogger chooses a topic to write about for 31(ish) days. Because it’s right where God has me, I’ve chosen to share on Blending Beauty with Balance.
(#thebeautybalance, if you want to follow along…or better yet, join the conversation using the hashtag!)

It’ll be a fun and encouraging 31(ish) days where I’ll be sharing tips and tricks while digging deeper, finding purpose, and blending beauty with balance — all with a heart of intention. {all 31(ish) Days will be linked here}

a Mama and her little daughter lie on the grass

I think one of the most meaningful posts I may have ever written, regardless of it’s popularity, is the one I wrote for Chloe called, What We Need to Teach Our Daughters About Beauty.

It was written when in the midst of a hurried night trying to tackle one beauty blog post and video edit after another, I suddenly caught a glimpse of my sweet daughter, Chloe, sitting playfully at my vanity. And while there had been many times I’d seen her do this before, for some reason it was this time that I suddenly felt something catch in my throat.

I set my laptop down for a moment and just watched, taking in every single innocent moment after the next, watching her imitate what she’d seen me do day after day most of her life.

The warm tears slipped from my eyes, as I suddenly realized all that I truly longed to teach her about beauty.

There was so much more than the blushes and lipsticks before her (although, yes, I do plan to teach her a thing or two when it comes to those), that I needed her to know. There was so much more about beauty that I longed for her to understand.

I quickly picked my laptop back up and with a steady stream of tears and an open prayerful heart, I poured out the words I needed her to know, and more importantly, needed to be sure I was living myself as well.

It’s that night, that letter, that changed the way I would ever approach the topic of beauty again both here and on my YouTube channel, and it is the reason I wanted to write even more on the topic over at The Better Mom today.

Whether you’re a mama to a daughter, an auntie to a neice, a mentor to a little girl in your life, or even if you’re simply someone who often longs for more meaning in your search for beauty…I encourage you to head over to The Better Mom and read today’s post on Blending Beauty with Grace: The Greatest Truths We Can Ever Know About Beauty.

adorned from the inside out | #thebeautybalance

I’ve been diving right into this 31 Day Writing Challenge, where each blogger chooses a topic to write about for 31(ish) days. Because it’s right where God has me, I’ve chosen to share on Blending Beauty with Balance.
(#thebeautybalance, if you want to follow along…or better yet, join the conversation using the hashtag!)

It’ll be a fun and encouraging 31(ish) days where I’ll be sharing tips and tricks while digging deeper, finding purpose, and blending beauty with balance — all with a heart of intention. {all 31(ish) Days will be linked here}

 

 

I tend to ponder so often about the message I’m putting out there with all this beauty, hair, makeup and fashion talk, and I confess that I have truly been in the trenches over this deep longing to know just how to live and share a life of beauty with balance.

Because sadly, the truth of the world we live in, is this:

The burden of unattainable beauty has far-reaching implications for women’s economic well-being. Not only are women in the United States spending much of their money on cosmetic products – a total of $7 billion spent per year on cosmetics1 – but they are now taking increasingly drastic measures to alter their appearances through surgical means. Money spent on cosmetic surgery and non-surgical aesthetic procedures is increasing drastically among all women, including younger women and women of color. And the economic implications reach further, even into the workplace, where research shows that women who don’t adhere to particular standards of beauty are impacted professionally and financially. {ywca.org}

And while I was listening to a John MacArthur sermon/podcast on the topic of beauty the other day, I was tearfully overcome with just how this beauty balance message really is needed in our lives, maybe more now than ever before.

I notice us all longing for beauty, and yet we seem to all be looking in the wrong places to find it.
We spend, and we tweak, and we nip, and we tuck, and still we end up somehow feeling, often times, more empty than ever before.

 

peoplearelikestainedglasswindows

The truth is, while fashion and beauty may allow us an opportunity to express who we are, nothing truly lasts or shines brighter than the light of Christ at work in our hearts.

“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”
Matthew 5:16

And as I pray and read and study the scriptures on this very issue, I keep coming back to this thought:

“We are to be adorned from the inside out, making every effort to blend beauty with grace, ultimately reflecting His light and His beauty in all that we are and in everything we do.”

This beauty balance?

It really begins with our hearts and knowing where it belongs.
It starts with our focus and on whom it should always remain…

And when we are able to humbly come to this comforting place of truth, only then will we experience a beauty that truly satisfies.

blending beauty with balance | #thebeautybalance

The beauty balance really all started with this:

“Consistency breeds Credibility.”

This is one of those quotes that sits with me often and settles into my mind while I attempt to blend some balance throughout my life.

There is so much I want to do and so many things I long to be, and yet when I strive to take them all on at once I lose my balance and fall short in nearly every area.

There is no consistency, no credibility, no balance…which ultimately leaves behind a bitter taste of feeling unconnected.

Consistency.
Credibility.
Connectedness.

And it is these three C’s tumbling around in my mind that have led me to this 31 day writing challenge hosted by The Nester (who you will love).

It’s where God has me.
And it’s what God is laying on my heart to be and to share.

And so I’m committing to be present here and purposeful in my writing and content, prayerfully choosing to share for 31(ish) days on Blending Beauty with Balance.

Brushes for makeup on pink background

As I shared the other day, it’s true that I love beauty, style, and fashion…I mean, I just experience such a giddy joy in finding a fabulous shade of lipstick. And yet, even though that may be a lot of the content both here and on my YouTube channel, what brings an even greater joy to my soul, is living that beauty, and knowing that the beauty we delight in is truly a reflection of our Creator.

It’ll be a fun and encouraging 31 days….sharing tips and tricks, while digging deeper, finding purpose, and blending beauty with balance — all with a heart of intention.

I hope you’ll come back each day and join along in #thebeautybalance conversation, and I’ll be sure to link each post back to this page, so that there will be a landing spot for all of the 31(ish) posts.

And of course…to make it even easier to follow along, I encourage you to subscribe to my blog so you’ll never miss an update!

a visit to the dark side…

For quite some time I’ve been talking about and flirting with the idea of going dark with my hair.
And recently when the topic of needing to be on a BUDGET came up (over and over again), I decided that maybe it was time to get more serious with my decision.

And by serious, I mean I headed for a wig store.

Of course, only after texting my closest friends as well as my colorist, Nikki, about 1000 times asking them what they thought I should do.
{i’m thinking Nikki would RATHER i start doing my own hair at this point}
What began as “I’ll just run in and try one on really quick” became about an hour long process with lots of pictures and my mind more confused than ever.
redhair
{jimmy’s pick. i can hear the whispers at chloes private preschool. i dance. but not this kind.}

almost black

{almost black}

darkwig
{dark brown with highlights}

darkbrown
{solid dark brown}

menzooey
{feelin’ a bit like zooey}

darknblonde
{blonde vs. dark}

wigs
{my options. clearly i’m obsessed.}
Finally, Jimmy suggested I simply BUY the wig and wear it around the house to help me decide so we could PLEASE JUST LEAVE THE STORE.
Actually, I think he muttered, “Just buy it, let’s go…” and then headed out to the car with the kids.
Now, I’m not one to be given permission to buy something (especially when on a budget) and turn it down, so I quickly slapped down my plastic and bought that costume wig and proudly wore it all the way home.
darkhair
{my kids kept telling me to take it off.  jimmy seemed happy…to be out of the store.}

And, I continued to wear it (and try it on with different tops) all night until it was time to get ready for bed.
Also, I texted and Instagrammed pictures all the night long.
{all in addition to coming up with a brilliant party idea consisting of wigs & champagne}

I am very thorough when making decisions….
And you guys, as I stated on my Facebook page, changing my hair drastically is a much bigger decision then anything ever, including whether or not to have another baby.
Okay maybe not, because that decision is easy.
No.
Way.
Never.
Again.
Anyway, after a day of practice….I think I’m actually leaning towards the dark side.
I’ve been blonde for SO long, and I’m antsy for a change.
Plus, it’s budget friendly.
{although if i hated it, I would be all “budget what?”}

Life is short, it’s just hair, and I can always go back to blonde another day.
Sometimes in life, it’s about being free and simply throwing caution to the wind…
If you call buying a wig and obsessing all day throwing caution to the wind….

I guess time (days) will tell just how wild and crazy I am.

I have issues.
No need to tell me.

haiti, uganda, zumba, crazy love & youtube

{one of my most clever titles thus far, don’t ya think?}
Okay, so this isn’t so much a deep post.  
Nor is it a post tipping you off to a new beauty product I’m loving.
It’s just a “Hey, here’s what’s up post.”  
And I am going to try not to get all deep and spiritual about anything, because my mind needs to rest for a sec.
Seriously.  
I need a brain vacay.
This may be why I’m starting a new blog with my sister Heather.
It’ll be NOTHING deep and everything about home, decor, beauty and more…
And it’s in the design process, and I can’t wait to share my sister with you guys.
I adore her beyond words. 
{as I do all my sisters.}
Okay, so I’m just going to write it all out as though I think that you really really care, and unload this list once and for all.
The list of my life at the moment.

~~~~~~~

As you guys probably know, I think I can officially say I’m now a PAID freelance writer, and I ADORE my job.  ADORE.
Not to mention The Mommalogues, which is such a blast…it doesn’t even feel like work.  
P1010814
The tough part?  
Coming up with amazeball pitches and meeting deadlines.  
Who knew there could be tough side to writing???
I keep hoping in time, I’ll get the hang of it and my editors will love me the way I so desire them too.
It’s the middle child in me.
I need acceptance.
Love me.

~~~~~~~

Also?
I’m going to start teaching Zumba.  
Aqua Zumba to be exact.  
And I’m hoping I’ll be ready to teach my own classes by August.
And yes.
 I realize I’m totally white.
But I DO have a Hispanic last name.
{by marriage.}
dancingfools
It’s just that I love dancing, and I need to force myself to workout more, and I LOVE being around people, making them laugh and have fun….not to mention I need money for all these mission trips/or other such plans God may have for our family….
so Aqua Zumba it will be.
My soon to be passion/hobby/part time job.
If someone will hire.
If people will come.
I already have two routines down, with only 8 more to go before I can teach a full class.  
I’m thinking maybe I’ll dye my hair dark and start working on Latin accent.  
56498014469
Jimmy says I already have the Latina feisty thing going on, so I’m kinda close.  
So….it’s almost as though God has been prepping me for this all my married life.

~~~~~~~

Along with this, my kids are home from school for the summer.
And while I’m not as anxious about it as I was last year (maybe it’s the hormone balancing that’s finally happening?  more on that later.), it’s still, you know, summer vacation.
And my kids?
They have a passion to be WHEREVER it is I AM.  
We have a 1200 sq ft house  with a 1/2 acre of land (that we may sell soon), and the reason it’s so small is because even if we had a huge house, they would still ALWAYS be in the room that I am.  
Even if that room is a stinky bathroom.  
They just don’t care.
P1020756
One day I will miss that.
Right?
I’ll one day miss the incessant talking that Taylor has the gift of doing.
Phrasing a sentence/question in about 30 different ways in a surprisingly SHORT amount of time.  Although it FEELS as though hours have passed.
“Who ate this strawberry?”
“Nobody, I cut off the bad parts.”
“It looks like somebody ate part of it right here.”
“No, I just sliced off the soft parts.”
“You sure nobody ate any part of this?”
“No.”
“Maybe Chloe?  I think Chloe ate part of this…”
And on and on and ON it goes.
I’ll miss that right?
I’ll also miss the screaming that Chloe has a gift for doing.
At home.
In public.
In my dreams.
{if you follow on facebook, you know she got kicked out of swim lessons for this psychotic behavior}
It’ll be a cute memory one day, right?

~~~~~~~

And then there’s this weight loss I have got going on.
Or SHOULD have going on.
But somehow that insane self control I used to have???
It’s gone, along with minute parts of my sanity.
And so every day, I am trying to accomplish just one or two goals.
And so far it’s happening, but this mushy body stuff….is still there.
Wish it melted away as fast as it come on.
iphone-app-myfitnesspal
{my new best friend, my fitness pal app}
I think plastic surgery is looking better and better.
Plus, I hear it comes with great pain pills.
That’s sounds kind of nice right now.
In the meantime, I’ve been slacking on posting What I wore out posts because nothing looks cute on me except miu miu’s.  
And that can only be cute in a fashion post….
um….
never.

~~~~~~~

Also….
I’m trying to take a break from watching YouTube Beauty Channels.  
It’s causing a fluctuation in our budget, and I fear it may be the cause of us possibly needing to sell our house.  
Plus, how many pink lipsticks does one girl REALLY need?
30+ if you watch YouTube.
Which I do.  
I mean did.
And if I quit watching YouTube (i mean, take a break.  i can’t quit you YouTube), maybe I should take a break from making YouTube videos.  
Not that they’re all that popular anyway (why don’t they love me???)….but still.  
I would hate to stumble the three that do watch.
But then that brings us back to my issues with lack of self control, of which you may have plenty.
If that is the case, you are welcome to move in and teach me your ways.
And then…
We are praying over two mission trips….one to Haiti and one to Uganda.  
All in the next year. 
And it excites me and scares me.
Because what if anxiety strikes up again while I’m out in the far away lands?
What if I need to poop for a really long time when I’m supposed to be building a school or something?
What if there are….BUGS???
God is bigger than all that.
I must remember.

197636_477527782261980_88222610_n
{i did it before, i can do it again.}

~~~~~~

And so, with all of this going on in my life….
I decided (more so God did) that I needed to add in leading a summer bible study through Crazy Love with a group of our High School girls.
And that???
Is what is keeping me grounded.
Those amazing girls.
That inspiring study.
That bi-monthly reminder that AlLLLLLL that other stuff above is just stuff…
and what really matters is the stuff of Monday night bonding and study.

~~~~~~~

Oh.  
Also.
I’m behind in MANY sponsored posts and giveaways.
In fact, I may be on some black lists now because of this.
But, I blame perimenopause.
And weight gain.
For the next 8-10 years, that will absolutely be my scapegoat with or without hormone replacement therapy.

~~~~~~~

I need a vacation.
Somewhere quiet.
Somewhere there aren’t ANY people….
so that I can lay out.
And just be silent.
And allow my soul to breathe and regain what’s been lost in the shuffle.
IMG_1748
Have you ever just CRAVED peace and silence?
I forget, I’m writing to a group of mostly moms.
Of course you do.
Maybe, that’s next on my to do list.
Forget blogging conferences.
{See you at BlogHer12?}
Let’s plan a quiet peaceful conference.

~~~~~~~

And speaking of conferences, anybody get their feelings hurt that they aren’t approached to speak or share on their wisdom?
No?
Just me?
Again.
Blaming perimenopause.
Or middle child syndrome.

~~~~~~~

So, ya….that’s what’s up.
Without getting deep.
What up wit you?

Here’s the latest of what’s out there on the Big World Wide Web that has my name on it….

when i’m not here, i’m there….

How on earth is time flying so fast?
Between a new baby nephew in my life and heart, LOTS of family visiting, and one of our cars finally breathing it’s last breath….life is becoming one big blur.
So, while I’m out negotiating car payments and entertaining guests, check out some of the other websites I’ve been contributing to lately.
When I’m not here, you can always find me there!
~~~~~~~
First up, there’s my YouTube Channel.  
I am doing my best to keep up with videos, mostly beauty related, so check them out and let me know what you think.  
And if you have other ideas, pass them on!  
(coming up in the next few days is my April Favorites…beauty, books, and more!!)
~~~~~~~
Then, Tuesday through Friday you can find me dishing my thoughts via video on the SheKnows Mommalogues.  
{only watch if you can stand my voice*. if you can’t, just read the post at the bottom of each video.  see, there are options!}
*some people are so KIND with their comments.  sigh.
~~~~~~~
Also, there’s a new site launching called allParenting.com and right now there’s a fun article up that I wrote on the top Drugstore Makeup products for Moms.  
While you’re there browse around, it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite sites, and not just because I have an article up on it either! 
~~~~~~~
And finally, there’s Candace Cameron’s online women’s magazine, RooMag.  
I’ll be contributing articles on matters of the heart….and I think my first will up later this week.  
But in the meantime, check out the website, because I know it will quickly become one of your favorites.

And trust, I’ll be back to regular schedule posts soon!  
By the way….HOW ARE YOU GUYS!
I miss you!!!

its what i wore out: give ’em something to talk about

P1020710
P1020714
P1020715
P1020717
P1020719
what i’m wearing:
leopard dress/tunic: f21, found at a random thrift store in L.A. a few weeks ago $7
black dress (wearing underneath the leopard dress): , salvation army $3
leather jacket: {you should know this by now, because I wear it all the time.  here, here, and here, and more places than that.} apple bottom jeans, platos closet, $12
leggings: tj maxx, $8
boots: f21, super vintage….and I’m sad because the heel is wearing down.  It may be time to find a replacement.  sadness.
flower ring: platos closet, $3
necklace: so old, I have NO idea where it’s from, but i can guarantee it was cheap.  of course.
purse: mossimo, found at a garage sale for $1

~~~~~~~

First of all, I just have to say that I love when Chloe sees what I’m wearing and then asks if she can wear it too.
Then she’ll say, “I need makeup too!”
And I tell her she’s beautiful without it….but really I swoon inside…
Because, secretly, I hope and pray she always thinks I look cool enough to want to copy me.

~~~~~~~

And because the Sunday before, people balked at the tiger leggings I wore…I decided the following week deserved some nice and loud leopard print.

What can I say, I’m a rebel.

I say (or sing), “Let’s give them something to talk about….”

Right?

~~~~~~~

In other news….

I’ve been kind of hooked on YouTube tutorials and makeup/skincare review channels.
Which in turn has caused me to feel like I NEED lots and lots of makeup and skincare.
Which in turn THEN caused me to spend hours at different drugstores (with chloe, cause she loves it too) this last weekend buying lots and lots of makeup and skincare.

And I accidentally just happened upon a few more videos which created another list…
which means tomorrow I have to go back for more.

These are the things we as stay at home moms look forward to.
Plus, it’s TOTALLY helping my PMS.
And right now, it’s all about survival.

In fact, maybe I’ll do a haul/review video of everything, because I think I found some winners!!!
Because since starting the Mommalogues, I haven’t filmed any of my OWN videos.
I think it’s time, I kind of miss my YouTube Channel.
{so, if you have any other ideas of videos you want me to do, let me know!}

Enough about me.
What were you guys up to this long holiday weekend?
Dish the dirt.

purse: kind of like the marc jacobs but not quite
bracelets: twisted silver, and the black one….not sure where i found that
ring: platos closet
necklace: salvation army
sunnies: dziner eyes, a little sunglasses hut by the beach
~~~~~~~
So this is my last what I wore with ombre hair….ahhhh, it was fun while it lasted.
It wasn’t exactly that I didn’t love it anymore, as much as it was about needing something new.
I have been feeling SO much better, anxiety wise, and I figured what better way to celebrate then with having sunshine all the way up to my roots?!?

If you follow me on Instagram, then you already saw the new ‘do….
if not, I’ll post pictures here soon.

I guess Jimmy was a tad confused when I got home from the hair salon.

“I thought you were going totally blonde?  It doesn’t look that much different to me,”
he said after I FINALLY asked him what he thought…
AN HOUR after I’d been home!

How long must a girl wait for a compliment around here???

Apparently, TOTALLY blonde to him meant Hugh Hefners’ girlfriends kind of blonde.
Figures.

After 10 years, we’re STILL working on the communication thing.
sigh.

On a FASHION POST note…..

Now.
About those leggings.
So, originally I bought them simply to work out in.
I love having fun leggings to wear during my Tracy sessions, well…because Tracy always has cute leggings and it just seems more fun when you dress like her.

But, then I started seeing cute animal print skinny jeans (target, yum!), and I decided I needed to try out the trend.
AND I LOVED IT.
Other people?
Ummmm, I’m still not so sure they were on board.

I noticed some looks, whispers, and then looks again while at church.
{has no one ever seen tiger legs at church before?}

And then later at Sprouts, two ladies were looking at me NOT so discreetly, then whispering, and then looking and then whispering again when they saw me on the next aisle.
{no sprouts lovers, it’s not REAL tiger, don’t throw paint!}

It was then that I started getting a complex.
It couldn’t be the leggings….
I wondered if maybe there was toilet paper coming out the back of my dress….or on my shoe, or perhaps there was something on my face….
OR!
Maybe they recognized me from my blog????
Not likely.

I think it was the leggings.

Sigh.

Some people just don’t *get* fashion.
{perhaps it’s me?}

In any case, I’ve never been one to care….and so I will wear them again….
and when people whisper,
I will just smile and say a proper thanks.

Or maybe just offer an autograph.
I guess it’s just time for me accept that it’s come to that.
*kidding*


~~~~~~~


Oh!
Happy Valentines Day!!!
I heart you.
