Today we decided to finally get this blog thing started and began by taking a million pictures! It's what we do in our spare time anyways. So we tried to think about what topic to start out with. We started putting together outfits and thought, "How cool would it be to do a post contradicting the hated 'Brown and Black' theory?"
I'm sure we've all heard that when putting an outfit together we should always avoid putting brown and black together. Well, times have changed haven't they? Granted, you really should never wear a black dress with brown shoes! I mean common sense people. HaHa. However, there's a way to work these two neutrals into the same outfit. Here are some samples of the outfits we each put together! Hope ya'll get some ideas!
Instead of putting a true brown together with black, try tan! It isn't as close to black to play tricks with others' eyes. However, it adds a little individuality to an outfit!
Look for prints that already have a unique color combination like brown and beige! This way people know that the colors go together! Plus this is an excellent way to mix your accessories!!
Thought of the Day:
"Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded." ~ James 4:8 (KJV)
The beginning of this verse starts out saying how we should draw nigh to God. However, do you notice the order of which this is in. It doesn't say "If God will draw nigh to you, then you can draw nigh to him." No, my friend, it's quite the opposite! The responsibility is placed on our shoulders. We must first draw nigh to God if we expect him to draw nigh to us. So often we think it must be the other way around. When in fact, God is wanting us to realize that we need him in our lives. Yes, he wants us to draw nigh to him, but he will not make a move unless we present ourselves a servant unto him first and foremost! Think on this.
