I'm Still Learning + SheInside.Com

Happy Hump Day!


Hope the middle of the week greets you warmly :) 
My sweet girl is feeling under the weather so I'm in nurturing mommy mode. Not that I'm never in this mode, its just that when things like this happen, everything slows down a bit and I tend to focus more on what's important. And getting my baby girl back to her energetic, happy self is a top priority!


I am 4 1/2 months into this mommy thing and while there are things that come second nature - there are definitely a lot of things that don't. 


I can honestly say, 
I am still learning...


That motherhood is challenging and rewarding at the same exact time...

 How to throw my cares to the wayside and focus on my little one when she needs me most...

That sometimes you just need to slow down and enjoy the current view, as it changes daily...

That love is more than a word, hugs, kisses, and affection. It's a way of living...


I am still learning...


That life is full of amazing mysteries and miracles such as the gift of a baby, the connection between  a pair, the natural instincts of a wild animal

That there is perfection in what our world deems as an imperfection or defect...

That time is valuable and is most satisfying with Christ, family, and friends you love...

That my journey in faith, love, family will never end...


I am still learning, 

that I will always be learning. 



No matter what age, no matter what I gain in experiences.
I will keep learning.

In another topic, I love this shift dress. I am all about prints and will pretty much try any print thrown my way, at least once! So when I was contacted by sheinside.com to pick a couple of pieces, I couldn't resist this dress. I love the mix of colors in the print. I am all about little to no accessories. This print draws so much attention, no need to add more to it. The shoes were a gift from my sister for my birthday. They are perfect for a night out on the town - or would be super cute with jeans and a t-shirt. Perhaps, I'll try that with my next outfit post ;)

So, what do you think?
Do you feel like you can ever master something? 
Or will there always be an opportunity to learn something new or even another perspective on things?

Hope you have a fantastic day!

"Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many."

My First Giveaway! : Tracy's Bracelets & Soaps

This post is sponsored by Tracy's Bracelets & Soaps. I was not compensated for this, but I was given this product for review. ALL opinions are my own. 

Hello Readers! Happy Sunday! :)

So, recently while browsing the web I found myself looking through Etsy (as I sometimes do), and came upon some shops for homemade soaps. Firstly, I will have you know that this is all new to me, as most of my soap is store bought. But as I began to read more, I was really intrigued by one shop in particular. The name of the shop is Tracy's Bracelets & Soaps

The soaps are natural soaps made with wonderful ingredients like olive oil, Shea butter, and coconut oil! So, of course I had to try them! Tracy was nice enough to send me some to review and will be sponsoring this giveaway! :)

Immediately, when I opened my mailbox I could smell the lovely scents, and couldn't wait to get them inside. After opening this is what I found.
 This Scent was my fave: It is a wonderfully sexy scent that is a blend of Amber, Sandalwood, Vanilla, Cedarwood and the barest hint of light floral.

 This Scent smells like White Diamonds perfume (by Elizabeth Taylor)... It has a shimmer in it too, which I loved!  It is scented with a White Diamonds [type*] fragrance oil which makes it smell just like the perfume. It is dusted with pearly white mica to give it a diamond glitter.

If you have ever tried Lush soaps this is a dupe of the Rock Star soap, but this soap I also loved the smell! It is scented with Liquid Crack (don't you love that name?!) It is like cotton candy and old fashioned ribbon candy that you wash with!

So, I tested them:

I even took them in the shower with me a couple times! I didn't have to use my loofah because they lather up so nice. I also loved the fact that when I finished washing my body felt so clean and moisturized. Tracy says she generally doesn't have to use lotion after showering because her skin is hydrated and happy! I couldn't agree more!

But wait! Not only does Tracy make these lovely natural handmade soaps, she also has a gift for making beautiful bracelets. Below are a few of my favorite jewelry items from her shop.
 I love teal and turquoise so I adore this Turquoise Nugget Watch

The soaps in her shop run from about $4.50 - $8/bar! Super Affordable!
Her bracelets/watches run from about $8 - $30! Also great price for a good value! 

Tracy is giving one lucky reader a $10 gift card to her shop!
