Only in Louisiana.....

Only in Louisiana would you wear.....


......a jacket and flip flops together! 

This morning I sat on our porch reading my Bible. The wind was just nippy enough that I needed the jacket, but was still warm enough for flip flops. 

Did I mention I love Louisiana?

It's one of the few places you wear a scarf not for warmth, but because of the season. 

Where most jackets are made super thin, because all they are is an accessory to your outfit....most of the time.

where boots are made with thin material....for the same reason.

Yep, I love Louisiana. 


Today I wore my red polo shirt: given to me

same black jean skirt from yesterday

jean flip flops I got from Goodwill for $3

white shell necklace: $5 off of eBay

and of course, my beloved leather jacket I got this week! Which of course, I had to take off at 11AM because it started to get too warm. =)

Today, I'd like to talk a little about clothing, and the way it should fit.


The shirt, as in the picture above, should lay over you. There is nothing appealing about a shirt that is so tight that it shows not only your regular curves, but also any unsightly curves in unpleasant places. And ladies, if you have all your curves in the right places, you still don't need to show them off. It only helps men to sin, and makes you, no offense, cheap. When you wear immodest clothes, it's like having a huge sign on your forehead that says...

"For Sale" 

So keep your body pure, as well as helping out men who are trying not to lust. Keeping your body covered causes men to respect you, and treat you with dignity. Not like a piece of meat. 

I just came from Walmart with my family, and its just pathetic how some women are dressing. If you keep your eyes open, you will see the way most men look at these women. If you've seen it, you know that these men are not thinking about the woman's nice face or joyful spirit. Their eyes never make it high enough. I'm sorry if I'm sounding rather blunt, or maybe even cruel. But watching my dad and brother trying to keep their eyes pure, looking in a different direction from the girl showing her body off, just to be assaulted from the other direction by another girl showing just as much, if not more. I see them struggle to keep a godly mind. And don't even think the thought, "Them nasty men need to keep their eyes to themselves!" Because it's not their fault. 

The Bible says in Matthew 5:28  "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."

Notice the words, "with her". That means, that if you cause a man to sin by dressing revealingly, you are sinning too.

Now onto a more friendly subject. I'm considering having a giveaway. But I have lots of planning to do, so tell your friends to keep an eye out for it. =) 

Have a nice day!
