Fashion focus: The signature shoes for HER closet.

When it comes to fashion, I'm a huge fan of comfortable style, anything that doesn't make me feel at ease is bondage. We shouldn't be slaves to fashion, we have the right to dictate what we expect to feel when we wear any piece of fashionable item, either clothing or accessories. I'm a firm believer and advocate of "comfort".  

The cliche statement "Fashion is pain" was not meant for me and I don't agree with it. Fashion should be fun and interesting. When it comes to female accessories, we will all agree that shoes are seldom the most uncomfortable.

When it comes to shopping for shoes, ensure you buy the perfect size and heels. To make your wardrobe planning a little easier, I've zeroed in on the top 6 key styles of shoes every fashion forward lady should have in her closet.

1. The Classic Pump



2. Everyday Sandals





3. Basic Ballet flats


                                                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                 
4. Casual kicks

5. Nude Heels

6. Statement heels



If I was to talk about the top 3 I can't do without, it will have to be my classic pumps, ballet flat shoes and statement heels.

What's yours?

Let's talk about Jesus Christ.

For a while, I've been dreaming about Judgement day. As a Christian, you are bound to hear this in one sermon or another. My dreams are not triggered by fear of the unknown. The truth is everyone would die one day and the Holy book doesn't lie, I believe in the words written in the bible. I believe it takes faith to believe the stories you read in the bible, else you would go through life wondering when all those events in the bible occurred? if Jesus is real? If He actually died to save the world? if He will come back someday to heal the world and take the saints? If you lack faith, your questions would never cease.
I had a dream last night. In this dream, I was moving from one church to another church, listening to pastors preach and showing people a picture of someone they assumed is Jesus Christ. Then a shiny ball of light followed me, the light said "I'm not the person in the pictures, I'm not the person in the bible or the person in the movies. I am the person who dwells inside of you. I am with you all day, all noon, all night and then I woke up. I feel the dream is a personal revelation.

The Bible teaches us about Jesus Christ, the Pastors do their best to help us understand the scriptures, movies illustrate His story, the church connects us all but it is all up to YOU. I recently told a neighbor that Christianity is a religion. If you don't want to emulate Christ, if you don't want all of the fruits of His spirit to dwell in you, then you are practicing a religion. I'm still growing, I yearn to have a perfect relationship with Him and I pray for His grace everyday.

Jesus Christ is not a religion. Being religious is not a criteria to make heaven, being religious is pure deception to oneself, being religious is probably a comic relief to God.

Galatians 6:7 says "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Revelations 3: 16 says "So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spit thee out of my mouth."

In conclusion, love Jesus Christ in your own way and worship Him in your own style. Have a personal relationship with Him and not the world.
