No black today!! I am proud of myself. I will even venture to say that the color in my wardrobe might have encouraged me to put an extra dip in my hip when I walked today. My mom hooked me up with this leather jacket ...it only took a whole two seconds before I ripped out of her hands, ripped the tags off with my teeth and was on my way home to introduce it to the rest of my closet.
Speaking of challenges, I have a few other personal challenges that I've inflicted upon myself this week. First of all, I am not listening to any secular music for a week....straight gospel music in the car. Now, if I just happen to zone out while driving and Usher's Daddy's Home song comes on...and I started grinding in my seat...that's the only exception.
But in general, I could use some extra inspiration/motivation in these days. The songs on the radio are just getting plain stupid anyway, so it's not like I'm missing much. Plus, I get tired of looking like Oprah during worship service at church...singing along to songs when I KNOW I don't know the words! (don't act like you've never seen Oprah lip sync to songs that knows she has never heard before.)
I've also challenged myself to pack my lunch every day this week. Not only is it more budget friendly but it's healthier too. Besides, my students are tired of me collecting money from them like I'm taking up offering so I can buy a honeybun from the vending machine everyday. My all time low is when I busted one of my kids for eating in my class. I told her to bring her bag to me. When I saw that they were animal crackers, I told her she could eat them only if she shared them with me. Shameful! LOL.

Hey just stopping by from SITS! I love your blog!!! You can never go wrong with God and shoes...2 things I absolutely LOVE! and awesome challenge! black is my favorite color as well....and like you I've started the new year by bringing my lunch and boy has it made a difference in my pocket and its soooo much healthier. Good Luck to You!
Your legs are amazing and I love your jacket! And doesn't it feel so much better to cook and bring your own food instead of eating takeout and vending machine crap... I started making my own food to save money, and then I realized it also made me feel and look about 10,000 better. Yay lunch boxes!
good luck with all your challenges. You look great, love the rounded toe of your shoes and the colors of your outfit.

Love those shoes! I could definitely go for this challenge--I'm guilty of always wearing black because it's so safe.

Stopping by from SITS and I LOVE your blog! I seriously have a problem when it comes to shoes...I can't say no! (I even work at a high end shoe store part time so I can get a discount!) I'm so glad to see somebody else who loves them as much. Definitely going to be a follower now :)
I love your site. I just found it yesterday and now i'm addicted. I just wanted to comment about singing along to songs in church and not knowing the words! One day at church I was fake singing and the guy with the mic came up to me and I was so ashamed because i didn't know the words. didn't help that the camera also spanned on me!! :}
Oh my goodness, I just laughed so hard when I read about the animal crackers! You totally crack me up :)
Loving this look - the way that dress drapes on you is stunning.
I got the combat boots about two weeks ago from Nine West - they were super on sale so I'm not sure they are still around but it's definitely worth a try. I love them!
You look great! I totally have a black addiction, too. I usually wear at least a little bit in every outfit. This is super chic, and purple is a great color for you. Oh, and I would totally mug you for your shoes, LOL. I loveth them!!!
Loves the entire look!

Love that purple dress, totally into dresses that have nice draping. Looks fab on you!!
