Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes some things are meant to be take my hand, take my whole life too for I can’t help falling in love with you -EP Some brides say their wedding day was a blur, some say it wasn’t anything special, some say they felt…
What It’s Like Being Engaged…
Hey y’all!! I told myself that I wouldn’t be a blogger who takes a break from blogging while planning a wedding, but goodness, there are too few hours in a day! And definitely not enough mental energy! Yesterday marked the halfway point in our engagement! Wedding plans are moving along, I’ve had one shower already,…
I’m Engaged!
Y’all… I’m engaged! There is a super sparkly yellow gold ring on my left hand. Every time I see it, feel it, remember it– I think about my tall handsome man who loves me and has asked me to spend my life with him. If sap is not your thing, I suggest you forego reading…
The 5 Things Currently Influencing My Style
Hey y’all! I’m not sure if it’s my upcoming 23rd birthday, the encouragement I received at the Modest Fashion Guild, watching The True Cost, or a combination of all three, but I have been seriously evaluating, purging, and researching my wardrobe recently in a way that I never have before. (I love this painting by…
What’s Up | Hemming
Hey y’all! It’s been awhile since I’ve checked in here! The main reason is the huge project of custom-hemming the 193 pre-orders of Errand #17 skirts for Fresh Apparel Denim Company. My friend Madeline came to help for five days and documented some of the fun: We got these 80 done (stacked on the couch) in the…
What’s Up | Work, Family, Stuff
Hey y’all! Long time no post, I know. I get asked frequently what every day life looks like for a 22 year old stay-at-home daughter running a business in the middle of nowhere with Lyme disease, so I thought I’d share what has gone on in the areas of Work, Family, Fun, Health, and Study…
Let’s Talk | Being In The Know Is Not A Virtue
“…They also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention.” -1 Timothy 5:13 This Scripture has been on my mind for the past few years, ever since it came to my attention in a women’s…
Q+A: Routine
Hey y’all! Heh, yeah, I’ve been gone a while. Something switched in me and I just had *no* energy, brain power, or motivation to blog for a while. I’m rested now and have begun life as a 22 year old, so my resolve is back and I’m going to do things right. Thank you for…
Q+A: Hobbies
Hey y’all! I receive dozens of questions every week from readers who are curious about aspects of my life and philosophy, so its long overdue that I dedicate some time to answering a couple of those each month. I have a list of questions from last year’s survey I’m still working through. 😛 What are…
Let’s Talk | Inspiration VS Imagination
Hey y’all! This summer as I’ve been re-evaluating Fresh Modesty–the directions to take it and it’s place in my life–I’ve been changing up some of the places I spend time at on the internet and hopefully have been more purposeful about the content I consume. As young women, we are often guided by our emotions…
Life | Right Now {2nd Edition}
Hey y’all! I’ve SO missed chatting with you all these last few weeks as I’ve had to use my time on other things! I have so many ideas for posts and tutorials and topics to cover, but I’m having to be patient as I work on Fresh Apparel instead! (Not that it’s a bad trade……
