{joyful about}

As all-important as fashion is, I've been wanting to do a few more posts on things that mean a lot to me, and the things that bring me joy. So, today I thought I'd put up my first "joyful about" post on the things that bring me joy!


First up...flowers!!! The weather seems like it may finally be rounding the corner towards spring, but the last couple weeks have sure been dragging winter out. (hence the necessity of some florals in my life). Trader Joes has the best flower choices, and I may or may not have been tempted by their bright colors the past two trips getting groceries. But seeing them brighten up the apartment has definitely brought me some happiness every day. It's really amazing what some green can do to a place!


Second (and most important) source of my joy has been getting more involved in scripture and my church here in NYC. I had been feeling like I really wasn't making God a priority in my life recently, but am happy to say that has been changing! Since starting a new devotional system (I get them sent to my email through Proverbs 31 Ministries, and am really liking them!), and trying to get more involved in my local church (Hillsong) I've seen my spirits raise exponentially. Just having a community around you and really making time with God a priority has an amazing way of making life so much more joy-filled!


Last and definitely least (just kidding) of the three is my suite-mate Jule, who has brought so much silliness and joy into my life! I cannot be thankful enough for all three of my roommates, and feel so blessed that I get to share my freshman year with them. Whether its taking endless photos of me for the blog, putting up with my rants about school, or always being down to break out into song with me, I really couldn't ask for a better chica to spend entirely too much time with. Shoutout to being just as crazy as me, and to just being your walking-dead and unicorn obsessed self! Love ya, boo <3
