Walking in a winter wonderland + FAQ's....

Blazer: Fossil. Top: Gap. Belt: NY&C. Jeans: Gap. 

Earrings: Charlotte Russe. Ring: James Avery. Watch: Michelle.

So, yesterday I finally said... ENOUGH! I have to do something with my life today {We are still being held captive by the evil Blizzard. Like, can't even get out of driveway kinda captive}. So, what was that something you ask? Well as you can see, I thought I would "attempt" a photo shoot. But, if you can't tell through the photos... It was extremely difficult. Nevertheless, it required me to take a shower and put my face makeup on. Which honestly guys, I can't remember the last time I had done either of those things {sick}. So, I guess the attempt for photos was an overall good thing :)

Now, on to more important bizznass...

I would just like to tell you all again how much I adore you! I know I haven't been able to comment back very much lately and I deeply apologize. But please know that I still read you ((awkward?)) and I still love you all more than ever! And, if you ever start to doubt that...

PLEASE REFER BACK TO HERE!

ALSO.

I have noticed a lot of people do FAQ's posts.. I personally enjoy them because I feel like I get to know the blogger a little better. So, just for S&G's {shouts & giggles that is}, I think I shall try it! So here is your chance friends to ask me whatever you'd like {to an extent, ha}. Even for the friends that know me "for reals", you can ask too. There's no reservations here!
I will post the Q&A's on my next post. You guys down? If not, totally fine. I'm just giving it a whirl. Try and spice up Love Never Fails a bit! I'm kinda excited :)

READY....... SET........ ASK!!!!!!!

Back by popular demand!

 I'm learning to love my curves. I have your guys kindness to thank for that. 

Thank you. 

Well, it's Friday ya'll! I couldn't be happier. 
Although, this weekend won't be filled with anything but kiddos... The rents went to Vegas {lucky ducks}. So now, yours truly is the permenant nanny. No dropping them off at the end of the day, no sleeping as late as I choose. It's all about the booger pickers until Monday night! I'm actually really looking forward to playing mom for the weekend though. Should be interesting to say the least. Nothing nanny Sam can't handle!

What are you guys up to?! 

Wherever you go and what ever you do... do it with confidence knowing that you are beautiful!! Seriously, inside and out.

Love.

A little fire and ice... Oh it feels so nice

This is dedicated to every girl in the world that has ever felt insecure. 

As promised, Love Never Fails first fashion post...

Before you go any further, I would like to explain my reasoning for doing this. The reason I decided to hop on the "take-pictures-of-your-daily-attire-and-pretend-it's-cool" bandwagon is because I wanted to show women that you don't have to be a certain size to do this, you don't have to have a certain style, or look a certain way. Ladies, you are beautiful. Stop feeling like you aren't good enough for things. You don't have to have expensive clothing, a certain look, or a specific figure. All you need is to know that you are wonderful, and the world is yours.

PS.. You will notice a time difference {aka, dark and not dark outside} in the photos. We had a little technical difficulties so we had to stop for an intermission {also aka, charge the battery}.

Top: New York and Company. Jeans: Gap. Shoes: White House Black Market. Belt: Francesca's. Watch: Francesca's.

Well, there you have it friends. Hope you enjoyed the total awkwardness and enjoyment bursting through the pictures! And here is your totally awesome photographer.

Yep, totally awesome. 

We had some difficulties, played around with poses, and laughed at ourselves too much. The photos are amateur but.. we will get better :) 

Remember ladies, don't get discouraged when you open that closet door. Your style is perfect, because it's your own. And your size is beautiful because it's on you. 

AND YOU ARE GORGEOUS. 

Now start acting like it! 

Love you all so very much!
