color block



top forever21, jeans H&M, shoes converse, necklace american eagle, leather jacket target, scarf H&M


It's almost time for me to move out of Ryan's apartment and into my new place. I'm really excited because my new room mate seems super sweet and the space is really cool. ~stay tuned for pictures~ 
I'm still a little torn on what to do; in terms on staying here or going home.  Some pretty sweet new job opportunities have come up though that I am pretty excited about. I go in for my second interview at a dance fitness place to be an instructor. How fun would that be?! fingers crossed that everything goes through and this summer turns out to be some what fun. 
The down side. This new maid job I have will probably make it so that I am not able to go home at all this summer. BUT I will be able to go home on all the holidays during the school year! 

Prayers please and thank you

Love Always,
Lexi

words to God




Lord God I ask that You be with me today. For so long I have been searching for a security to help me feel stable, but all along YOU were the only security I needed. 

I turn my life to Your hands again. I pray that Your will be done God. I know that you are never wrong. I am willing to be counted as one of Yours. I will spread the joy that You have laid in me with everyone, every where I go. 

God help me to be still and just know that you are God. Give me patience as I wait and see what will happen with the next two weeks. Lord, You know the plan that I have. But I know the plan that You have for me is much grander and above my knowing. I pray that You will lay your hand over my and guide me through this God. 

Please forgive me for those who I have angered against, as I know it is all in your plan and that obviously was not where You wanted me to be. 

I pray this in Your Holy name
Amen

school girl



Jumper TJMax, Blouse boutique in LA, Tights Target, Boots London, Necklace Forever21 

Growing up I always attended private schools. I wore uniforms until 3rd grade when I transferred to a different private school, but it did not have uniforms. I don't know why but I always kind of wished that I still had them. Whenever my friends and I would go to the mall after school and I would see the little catholic school girls in their knee highs and checkered skirts or jumpers, I always had a bit of envy toward them. 
My inspiration for this outfit was the little catholic school girls. I had a locket with it but I felt like little orphan Annie, so I went with the pearls instead. I used the poka dot tights and boots to make it a bit more edgy. I also have this slight obsession with the peter pan collar trend. 

Love Always <3

freepeople



  



Skirt Forever21, Blouse Freepeople, Bralet Forever21, Shoes Steve Madden, Polish Urban, Headband Forever21, Necklace American Eagle, Bracelets gifted, Rings bible store and Ireland 

This Freepeople blouse is yet another on sale piece. It is so comfortable and so versatile I love it! I sometimes just wear it around the house with a pair of knee highs because it is that comfortable. My rings are something that I wear pretty much everyday. They all have very special meaning to me; the Irish knot I bought in Ireland with two of my good friends and is kind of like our sister ring, the clauda ring was given to me by an amazing friend and is probably one of my favorite rings. I love that it is small, dainty and simple. The skinny rings are my bible verse rings; Jeremiah 29:11 and Philippians 9:16. Ever time I use my hands and they catch my eye they remind me why I am doing what I am doing, and to do it always to the best of my ability. The gold and silver ring was my mothers. I like to wear it because I miss her terribly and makes me feel close to her. 

Love Always <3

PS ... I wish I had a professional photographer to take my picture all the time like the other blogs, or wish I knew how to collage and edit pictures. Unfortunately I don't, so instagram is the best I can do. Follow my adventure: Lexim52

puppy love

Little babies at the pet store...so sleepy they feel asleep in their water bowl! 

Makes me miss my precious babies ... Chloe and Belle 
I miss you so much and love you bunches


Proverbs 3:5-6
"...and give it up to God--the whole decision. Ask for God to show you His will and make it clear what you are to do."

God I ask that you help me be still and just know that You are Lord.
Amen

color twist




sweater, vest, belt, and skirt all forever 21. necklace american eagle 

This outfit was fun but a bit annoying when it came to walking across campus. My skirt kept sliding up, because the fabric was slick against the tights, and then would disappear  underneath the sweater and vest and get tucked under my backpack. In other words ... thank goodness the vest and backpack covered my bum other wise it would have been a cheek show! hahaha 

Love Always<3
