TIPS on TUESDAYS.
BALANCE aspects.
Today's silhouette is INVERTED TRIANGLE. It's when your top section is wider than your hips.
How do you correct the focus? How do you make sure you're on point? First figure out your silhouette. Check out this short video for details. Next Tuesday's post will continue the idea of balance.
*A very rewarding part of my background is in Fashion Design. It is really my passion along with other forms of design. There are a few things I learned along the way that I'd like to share...This is number 6.

Sketch Journaling...in color. I was introduced to Pantone color in college, when I went for fashion design. I love incorporating these colors or their variations into my work. I used it for Journaling again. Its expressive and purposeful. So...How do you journal?

TIPS on TUESDAYS. LAYERING. It's getting cold, it's time to wrap up, see how!
Make sure the layering underneath isn't too bulky. The scarf alternatively can be, as it'll be on the outside.

Day 20 of the action item side of things...
GET YOUR MIND RIGHT. IT'S ALL GOOD. My mom used to say you have to pick your battles. Some stuff ain't worth your time. So...some things require action. Some things do not. You figure out what's worth your time. Be sure to spend time on passing the test you're currently in. Some do it by Journaling and reflecting. Some do it by taking immediate action where they should. Whatever you choose, smile first. Listen next. Then roll.. Don't keep spinning in circles and repeating mistakes because you're scared to handle your business.. When you get that together you'll find that you've snatched your joy & your peace back! Blessings...

Day 19 of the action item side of things...
STAND TALL. If you stay ready, you aint gotta get ready. That's in life, in conflict, in business, AND IN PRAYER. Start each day with a grateful heart. There is always something worse that could've taken place. Trust me. I know.. 🤎🖤❤Blessings...

Day 18 of the action item side of things...
ENCOURAGE YOURSELF. Stop letting challenges get you down. They're definitely gonna come, so be mindful. They build up as you get closer to your goals. You generally remain in crazy situations as long as your response remains the same. When you learn your lesson, and change your response, the situation changes. Being aware of that, you should want to change how you react. Be smart about it. Blessings...
