So, here I am, in my glorious imperfection! I really wrestle with posting photos on here sometimes! I want to be perfect, but obviously I'm not. My hair gets greasy just like everyone else, my hair gets crazy and unmanageable sometimes. Transparent blogging is something I constantly have to strive for! I want to be real with you, but sometimes it's hard. Sometimes I don't want to post photos of my greasy hair, but it's been too long since my last post! The fleshly desire of wanting people to think you're perfect is a monster that rears it's ugly head often.
Perfection is something none of us has, or ever will, attain-so why the cover up? Answer: I have no idea! Maybe we think people will like us better if we have a gorgeous outfit on. They'll talk to you more if you have the perfect shoes on. The truth is-there's only one person who will truly love you in any and every circumstance-be it just out of bed with dragon's breath and crazy hair, or perfectly manicured nails and high heels-Jesus. It's very freeing, and for that, I'm thankful. I don't have to put a show on for my Heavenly Father-He already knows I'm not perfect. So here goes nothing-check out my imperfect outfit with the dirty boots I forgot to clean and the hair that needs to be cleaned too. Truth is the new chic? ;)
I'm Wearing: Blue thumbhole shirt-Herbergers $10?//White Vest-Forever 21 $10//Butterfly Skirt-Vanity $8//Outfit Total:$28!
I just love you, Natasha. You are beautiful, imperfections and all. Your heart is such a blessing to me. Funny coincidence... today I "did myself up" WITHOUT wearing foundation (the entirety of my makeup today is light mascara... that's it!) for the first time since I was fourteen (yep, you read that correctly). Perfection??? Whatever!!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteCute outfit and seriously, I didn't even notice that your boots were dirty and STILL don't think your hair looks greasy in these pics.
Have a blessed Friday!

Amen Natasha!

I know what you mean...there are days when either I just don't look fantastic or like the pictures don't really turn out great. But, it's good to be honest while blogging 'cause it's really easy to hide the truth on the internet! Anyways, cute skirt :)
ReplyDeleteYou are a beautiful young lady! And just be the one God made! You are good the way you are! I like the skirt with the dark leggings it is a good combination. Have a great Sunday! Love Sjoukje
ReplyDeleteHehe, that's what happens when you get married too. Your husband HAS to love you despite all the imperfections. Today, I really smelled like a dog. Not sure how that happened. I think I may have rubbed against something that had poop while I was at the park or something. He still loves me though. I just couldn't hug him earlier today without him being disgusted for a second! I had so gotten used to the smell, because I was just at the park for a really long time... I'm sure other people smelled me too but weren't as nice as my husband!
ReplyDeleteOh Natasha, your hair STILL looks good! I think long hair is easily manageable than short. I learned that from having really short and long hair in my life. Short hair gives in to fly aways, Alfalfa sprouts, etc. Long hair looks nice a bit messy :)
