Them Good Old Days

This article was originally written in December of 2013 for my personal blog. Thank you for reading!

 

People often say phrases like, “Those were the good old days.” or “They just don’t make them like they used to.” or “No one produces good music anymore.” I find this HIGHLY generalized and untrue. This way of thinking is supposed to give you warm gushy feelings about sock hops and soda shops, but to me it’s very depressing to think that the world is going in a downward spiral. What’s the use of living when life is getting worse?

Every once in a while, my husband and I will go to an unpopulated scenic spot to enjoy a little peace and quiet you don’t normally get in the city. It’s refreshing to look into the horizon and catch a glimpse of perfection. God’s earth. A great big thing He created for us to enjoy. Just because global warming, recession, and blah blah blah is in full effect, that doesn’t mean we aren’t supposed to appreciate what we still have. Continue reading “Them Good Old Days” →

Promo Tuesday with Au Natural Love

Promo Tuesdays is where we highlight our brothers and sisters who are moving through ministry and small business while spreading the gospel as the Lord leads. Please support them by checking out their website and social media.

I’ve known the founder of  Au Natural Love almost as long as I’ve known my husband, so it’s been a while. I’ve seen her grow from a fellow young adult in church into an entrepreneur and leader in many facets of life. One of the things that’s so important about her ministry is the promotion of self-love. I can’t tell you how embarrassed I was to grow up as a mixed race teenager in middle school who had no idea what to do with my frizzy hair. It’s only now that I’m 30 years old that I’ve been able to accept my curls and stop relaxing my hair. Fortunately, there are beauty experts like Kelsie who are sharing their own journey of embracing the hair God gave them as well as sharing tips on how to manage different textures among the many ethnicities around the globe.

Here’s a little about her in her own words:

“It is my heart’s desire to touch the lives of women all over the world; to show them how beautiful they truly are and teach them how to take care of what God blessed them with. Whether permed, relaxed, straight or curly, you are beautiful so spread the love.”

In Love,

-Kytia L’amour

Puppy Love

This article was originally written in November of 2010 for my personal blog. Thank you for reading!

ConfirmationStation

Hello again. Thank you for stopping by. My, you sure look nice! What are you all dressed up for? You didn’t know I had a camera mounted in your room, did you? Oh shucks, calm down. I can’t see anything but the words I’m typing on this page.

Onto business…

I’m not one to really window shop. If I can’t afford it, I don’t want to spend my time wishing I had it and walk away sad that I don’t. I only go to the store if I’m in need of something, but I DO have one exception. Puppies! Just like children, it will be years before I have a little doggy of my own. I’ve already set my mind on a Pug. I want one just like the “Men in Black” costar with the smooth tan fur, deepset black face, and swirly pig tail. I lovingly call them “smashed face dogs” since it looks as though they’ve run into a wall at full speed. Continue reading “Puppy Love” →

Promo Tuesday with Love Lezlie

Promo Tuesdays is where we highlight our brothers and sisters who are moving through ministry and small business while spreading the gospel as the Lord leads. Please support them by checking out their website and social media.

A mutual friend introduced me to my now dear friend Lezlie, founder of Love Lezlie. It’s no wonder we clicked because we’re both in the fashion and entertainment industry aspiring to live a lifestyle that promotes love. She’s been blogging for several years on her career, her walk with God, choosing a vegan lifestyle, spiritual growth, marriage, ethnicity, etc. and the impact her words have is amazing. I’ve even had the opportunity to be featured on her site. There aren’t many people I know who live a completely transparent and unashamed gospel-driven life and are willing to share it on a public platform. I hope you’re as impacted by her journey as I am.

Men used to be able to get away with jeans and a t-shirt pretty much every day, but now that men’s fashion has caught up with women’s you have no excuse not to dress up once in a while.

I’ve been blessed to see Sticky Rice blossom from the ground up. You hear about human trafficking in the news almost on a daily basis, and sometimes wonder “How can I help?” There is a plethora of amazing organizations who have made it easier than ever to be involved in the fight to secure freedom for the unfortunate victims. My friend Melissa has made a unique platform that offers change on so many levels, and I would be remiss if I didn’t highlight her efforts so that you can join in.

What started out as a sketch has grown into an entire series. LoveRoboughty was a character designed by my friend Daniel in hopes to spread the message of love. (You know we’re all about that here at L’amour in Christ!) We have a few LoveRoboughty art pieces hanging in our home and we love the smile it brings to people’s faces when they see them.
