Labor Day weekend, how I love thee. Not only is it an extra day off, but tonight is Notre Dame’s first football game of the season which means — soup in crockpots, chip dips upon chip dips and if I’m lucky, a football shaped cake or something equally delicious. As you can tell, I’m super…

8 New Arrivals [Amazon, Nordstrom, J.Crew Factory, Etc]
Last week I decided to take off of work for a time to recharge, relax, go days on end without putting on makeup and not taking one single mirror selfie. Was it glorious? Yes. Am I ready to get back at it? I think so. The thing is, I love my job, I really, really…

![Perspective. I’ve had a long conversation about this subject with myself over the past 24 hours. It sounds silly even saying it, but last night I got so frustrated when one of my nails chipped because “I NEEDED THEM TO LOOK GOOD FOR A VIDEO SHOOT TOMORROW” and then this morning I pulled a classic makeup fail and dropped my eyeshadow and it shattered so again, I was angry, frustrated, annoyed, etc. And then I stopped myself. I don’t know if you’ve been following along of @lindsayletters.co and her precious daughter, but that family has been on my mind constantly over the past month. As I stared down at my broken eye shadow all I could think about is how it must feel for Lindsay and her husband to look down at their precious daughter and despite how broken things may feel right now, they are beautifully claiming God’s provision and promise for the future while in the midst of the excruciating present. We all have things [and this my friends, was not even a “thing”] but it’s what we do with those moments that can turn a broken palette into a beautiful masterpiece. And ps. If you haven’t already, please consider praying for @lindsayletters.co and @dugansherbondy and beautiful little Eva ❤️](http://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/51a5acd80644f24d99c6dbbeedc13f46/5E1CBA0E/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/69470034_405620503698526_7936848937660903511_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com&_nc_cat=110 "Perspective.
