What am I wearing?

I don’t know if I have actually ever done a what am I wearing? post and I really am not wearing anything spectacular but I wanted to share my new favorite jeans with y’all.  They may not look like much but the way they fit and wear, I promise you y’all will want some!  (and I am not being sponsored or paid to say this, I just love sharing when I find new favorite things!)

These jeans are Harper Skinny Jeans from Francesca’s.  I had honestly never heard of them before but recently when out shopping I was freezing.  I had a skirt on and for some reason the weather took a turn a little colder.  We went into Francesca’s and found these jeans on sale for $29.99.  The girl said they would become my new favorite jeans, I thought she was just saying that because she worked there… nope she was right!  They have just the right amount of stretch and my most favorite part is they do not sag!  Most jeans sag by the end of the day because it seems that all womens jeans have stretch in them.  I don’t mind that, I am just not a fan of sagging.  These do not have that issue.

Now, the jeans are the main point of this post but… for my sweater I actually got it on Very Jane for $5.99 or some amazingly cheap price.  It is really warm and was a steal.   My shoes were a steal too a few years ago at Marti & Liz’s.  They are Clark’s dessert boots.  I call this (the jeans & shoes) my hipster look.  I have to say, I am quite fond of it though, haha.

Yay For Fridays! Bible Verse Edition

I decided instead of picking a bunch of random things I was going to share my favorite, go-to Bible verses.  My problem is I have so many more favorites than 5.  I am sticking to 5 but it was hard!
1- Philippians 4:6- “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
One of my all time favorite verses.  I tend to have a worry problem and I know that is against scripture.  So I mediate on the worry verses quite often to help me remember what God’s promises are and what He says about the issue.  I also love 1 Peter 5:7-“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” 

2- Colossians 3:17-Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.”

 

3- 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18- “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
I try to keep this as my life verse.  It is so hard to remain happy and joyful in hard circumstances but this verse says it all, it is God’s will for us in Jesus and I need to do it.  I also think when we try to focus on being joyful no matter what the circumstances the light of Jesus can shine from even the darkest days and we can help lots of people that way.
 

4- Lamentations 3:22-23-Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail.  They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”
I love this verse.  No matter how much we feel we failed the day before, how much we think we screwed up, every day is a new day.  It is a fresh start and we don’t have to let yesterday affect today.  
 

5- Isaiah 40:31-But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Another one of my life verses.  God’s time isn’t our time and while it is a hard reminder He has it all figured out.
