When we seek change in our lives, even when we truly wish for aspects of our lives to improve, it can be daunting to make a move. After all, what if the change we seek isn't better, but more work, or more confusing because it's something foreign and takes time to learn?

While there's always uncertainty attached to change, it has been my experience that if a particular desire to change keeps reoccurring in your mind and isn't merely a one-time thought, then it is something that you should explore. Why do you desire this change? How do you hope to improve your life? What about your current situation isn't working for you?

Often our subconscious knows what we need before we accept the reality in our conscious state, and it is when such a desire for change keeps popping up that we must explore further. Now, there will be times that the change we seek turns out to be an unnecessary or an inaccurate decision, but it is in the exploration that we will find this answer.

So rather than simply desire change, take the time to dive deeper and explore further the matter that is dancing around in your head. Gather the necessary information and then make the best decision for your life and the direction you wish to travel.

Here is a post from the archives you might enjoy . . .


It's funny how weeks unfold. On Sunday while I was planning the week ahead, it looked like a week of few to-dos and smooth sailing. Little did I know, I would be ecstatic to see the week come to an end simply to catch my breath and slow my mind. However, it does make the weekend all the sweeter when it arrives.

I hope you too are looking at the weekend ahead with excitement. May your plans be pleasurable, your hours be long and leisurely, and you find time to do the things you love. U
ntil next week, I'll see you on the blog.

Splurge & Save Outfit: No.

While I always prefer very classic outfits - dark denim or black pants, I wanted to mix it up a bit and include a touch of leather or embellished finish to regular black pants and jeans. So long as the other items are simple and not statement items, choosing a textured finish in your legwear is a wonderful way to freshen your look, yet adhere to your signature style. And while maybe leather pants are not your preference, consider these or these and have some fun.

Also, a staple to consider in your wardrobe is the over-sized boyfriend jacket. Remember to keep the balance in proportion and pair with a tailored pair of pants or jeans. Versatile for casual day attire or the subtle masculine touch to an evening outfit.
