Is it possible to shop ethically on a college budget? Honestly when looking at ethical stores it may feel impossible because they are so so expensive but I promise you it is possible. Read my post today for 6 tips on shopping ethically on a budget! ✊🏻 My outfit // Shirt : @topshop thrifted Jacket : borrowed from a friend Jeans : @madewell back jeans paid for with discounts from giving them my old jeans Hat : @cottonon_usa Purse : thrifted Shoes : @converse borrowed from a friend

Confession: I’ve never loved Lent. I’ve never understood why we have to give stuff up because we all know that Jesus came back to life - so why fast? Now this is for sure a lack of virtue but honestly I always leave Lent feeling more guilty about my failure to complete what I promised instead of growing as a Catholic. 🙈 This year I feel God calling me so much deeper than ever before and I’m so excited to have this @blessedisshe__ journal to help me to do it. Ladies... this is really going to be a good one and I’m getting ready for Jesus to wreck me haha. Link to buy the journal in my bio!! * #blessedisshe #BISLent #myyes #justahandmaiden #modestfashion #ootd

New content coming soon!! * Hey everyone... I know I’ve been the absolute worst and being consistent on here but the start of this school year has been unreal... starting next week I’m diving head first into creating the best possible content for you. But I figured I’d ask: what would you guys like me to talk about on here? I want to know the questions you have about faith, fashion, modesty and whatever else you can think of!

Hey everyone! I know it’s been a crazy long time since I posted but these last two weeks have been hectic. Gods been stretching and pulling and I’ve been growing and all I wanna do is take a nap sometimes. Nevertheless He is good. He’s had me in a period of waiting for an incredibly long time now and sometimes I just want to say, “Jesus I know your plans are perfect but if you just consulted me on a couple things I swear I’ve got good ideas.” But He just looks at me and says... “sweet daughter, I promise you want to keep waiting.” So that’s what I’m doing! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Also, don’t be fooled. I may look excited here but I’d do anything to be in the sun right now!

We are not promised a life without suffering - but we are promised a life of redemption * I couldn’t imagine this girl’s story, I couldn’t imagine the hurt that she is probably still healing from or the suffering she has endured but I can tell you that through her suffering God’s glory has shined through. Her courage to stand in front of the counter protestors and speak the truth that abortion is never an option will forever inspire me to stand firm in what I know is right - even if I’m the only one.

What can you be doing to support the March for Life even if you can’t March? 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏼‍♀️ I couldn’t be more excited for the March for Life this Friday and while many of you may not be able to join the 1,000s of us who march the pro-life movement still needs your help so what can you do? 👼🏼 Post on Instagram a pro-life message. Coming from California I know how scary it is but if we don’t put ourselves out there then no one will believe that the #prolifegeneration exists * Pray a rosary for all women this week debating an abortion that they may have the courage to choose life * Do a holy hour for all of us marching. That we may be safe, warm, and may have a lasting impact on our culture. * Have the courage to talk about it on your campus with people who may have different beliefs than you and don’t be harsh... actually listen to their arguments and have a real conversation * Finally, donate to the Sisters of Life or if you are maybe feeling called to discern religious life check them out because they are doing amazing things!
