Just To Clarify

"Leadership is influence, not title." Who are you influencing? Are you living what you preach? Make sure and live a life to be proud of. You may have no idea who you are influencing so make sure and give a great example of a life well lived. Every decision matters.

 

Also, took this picture at the Biltmore is Asheville, such a beautiful place!

Monday....

"Life is tough, my darling, but so are you." This quote brings me back to a conversation I had with my grandfather before he passed. He said, " Brooke... you are made of different stuff". Life is not always easy and sometimes it doesn't make sense. But at the end of the day you have to be tough and keep going. You are here for a purpose, don't let any negativity stop you today.

Happy Friday!

I have come to find that you can not make people appreciate you or treat you well. All you can control is yourself and your own happiness. So today I decided to treat myself to a bouquet of roses and my favorite iced coffee. Spoil yourself today, give yourself a reason to smile.

Blocking Out The Noise

Confidence is silent. Insecurities are loud.

Sunshine!

After all the snow and clouds for the past week, the sun came out today and I couldn't be happier! If only I had a job where I could sit outside in the sun and sip on some coffee :)

Railroad Crossing

"She was unstoppable not because she did not have failures or doubts, but because she continued on despite them" - Christine Caine

I love this quote. We will all have battles and hard times, but you have to decide to keep going. Stay on the tracks and keep moving forward.

Outfit: Skinny jeans from Loft; Nude pumps from Nine West; Beige sweater from Draper James. 

Ugly Christmas Sweater

Doesn't get much better than to be able to have ugly Christmas sweater day at work! So thankful I work at a place that has some fun every now and then. I got this lovely turtle neck and vest at the one and only K-Mart. They have a great selection of Christmas attire!

Ending Is Better Than Pending

Ending something whether it is a job, relationship, or habit can be very difficult to do. But what I have come to find is ending something opens you up to beginning something else. That something else will most likely be better than you could ever imagine and you may just find what brings you true happiness and fulfillment.

 

Today's outfit is a super comfortable ensemble perfect for walking: Nine West flats, Madewell relaxed fit jeans, Loft sweater.

I Spy Something Red

"Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." - Dr. Suess

Trying to soak up and appreciate the moments and find beauty in the small things that I so easily overlook. Today I choose to be thankful. Also, I am super thankful for this new fall scarf. It is my favorite and goes with so many things!

Fall or Rise

"Once you say you're going to settle for second that's what happens to you in life, I find." Never settle for what is good because you don't think you deserve great. If you want better, be better. Even if you fall, always choose to rise. Just some of my thoughts on this dreary Monday.



Smile. It's Monday

In love with this new fall sweater from Anthropologie. It is very comfortable and flattering and has a few sweet feminine touches which I love. I paired it with basic skinny jeans and nude flats. A great look for a fall day.

Colors of Fall

Fall is the perfect season for pulling out the leggings, ankle boots and comfy sweaters. Such a nice thing to be comfortable and fashionable at the same time.

Seasons Change

There is something beautiful and refreshing about a new season. It can bring new opportunities, new mindsets, and of course new outfits :)

Nashville

Spent my lunch break walking around a cute neighborhood in Nashville. Beautiful weather, good food, and a new top, it has been a good day :)

Wednesday Blues Part 2

Matching the weather today with a basic black skirt and a tucked in deep blue blouse. Paired it with pointed toe heels from nine west.

Wednesday Blues

Found this blouse in a little boutique in Nantucket. The little embellishments on the sleeves make this a unique addition to any outfit. Paired it with my favorite pair of jeans from Kate Spade and nude pump.

Feeling Green

Blending in with all the green this spring in my cropped jean and mint green. :)

Fun In The Sun

It's time to break out the shorts:) I love to pair shorts with a loose blouse and heels to elongate the leg.

Snowy Wednesday

It is always a good day when you are able to coordinate your accessories with your skirt. Wish it wasn't 27 degrees outside though.
