Sportin' in Florals






{Jacket: SheInside}{Tee: Marshall's}{Jeans: Limited Identical}
{Hat: Express Splurge} {Necklace & Booties: Body Central}

OK, I think from my last post you all got the point that sports aren't really my thing--and neither are sporty outfits. But, somehow those two worlds collided on Monday when the hubs dragged me out to watch FIFA! (GO USA!). I can't lie--the soccer was boring, but dressing a little sporty was fun! I love the bomber jacket feel of this floral number and the leather hat is a perfect touch (I put the hat on because I got poured on after work and my hair was looking more than a little scary ha! but it worked for the best). Also fun, was the huge BBQ pizza that I ate all to myself and hanging out at our local bar with some old friends! So I guess all in all--sporting can be A-Okay!

So over the past few month, I have been wrestling with the concept of contentment. I always thought it meant being totally satisfied with what you want and not really wanting anything else. But, I have learned in the past few weeks to feel content and it feels good. I have come to terms with the fact that being satisfied, happy, and extremely thankful for what you have is totally key. However, that doesn't mean you have to stop striving and wanting more. It just means you trust God's timing in it all and never let your circumstance steal your joy. It has been a great feeling to accept that--and although I am sure I will still struggle with contentment--right now, in this moment--I am content.
Have a fabulous Wednesday Fashionistas

  30. This floral blazer is so perfect on you! I remember you saying you were looking for one, and you scored with this beauty!! I feel you on the whole "being content" thing. It really is a choice to be made, isn't it... I love the quote "You have to choose joy, and keep choosing it". Such truth! :)
