"The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years." Audrey Hepburn 

Where to begin? 

My mother.

Beautiful. Devoted. Graceful. Protective. Wise. Strong. 

I want to celebrate this woman. Everything she has done for me. The Spirit led encouragement she pours over me daily not only reveals her unconditional love, but her relentless pursuit of faith in the Lord. I praise God for her wisdom & this sweet season of life we get to spend together. 

But just so we all know, she's 1000x more stylist than I am...So, naturally, I had to document. 

I love you forever.

It's never too late to be a wise consumer:

I want to spotlight this gorgeous Mamuye tote & the company and heart behind the product. FashionABLE's focus of work is with women who have been exploited due to the effects of poverty. Their vision is to make a radical fashion statement as a responsible and world changing consumer. The FashionABLE mission is "to create sustainable business so that the people are not dependent on charity, but are a vital part of a developing economy" (https://livefashionable.com/faq/). 

When a woman is empowered with work, she creates change around her. FashionABLE's role is working with women, locally and globally, who have overcome incredible challenges ranging from prostitution to addiction to a lack of opportunity. When buying a FashionAble product, you are able to provide the women who hand make the products a new life for not only themselves, but their families & communities. 

We are all ABLE to find purpose in the passions God has placed in our hearts. Feel empowered knowing that YOU are able & were created to do amazing things through the strength of Christ alone, my friend. God creates the most beautiful masterpieces out of dust.  

Ephesians 3:20, "Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
