It is time once again for an inspired outfit. I have not been getting dressed much lately because I don’t always feel compelled to do so when I know I won’t be stepping outside of my house. While I do fully embrace that idea that we feel better when we put ourselves together, I am really quite content in the current environment to stay in sweatpants or leggings all day long.

But once or twice a week, I do need to go outside and breathe some fresh air. On those days, I have been getting dressed and going for walks with the family. Comfortable clothing is an absolute must for these brief outings, but I still try to create an actual outfit that is worthy of a photograph or two.

But super casual outfits are not necessarily my strong point as I do prefer to go a tiny bit overboard with patterns and layers and accessories and all that crazy stuff that really have no essential purpose for me right now. So I look to my blogger friends for inspiration.

When I saw Brandi of Just Live Joy styling her Express Camo Jeans with a simple black hoodie and white sneakers, I loved the simplicity of the outfit combined with that little bit of edge that I usually incorporate into my own style choices. And I had all of the necessary pieces in my closet to recreate this outfit. It was perfect for a short walk in the park with the family this past weekend and equally sufficient for me to be comfortable at home for the remainder of the day.

But enough about the clothes. Let talk about Just Live Joy. Started by two life long friends, Sherry and Brandi, who live in different states, Just Live Joy is all about these two friends sharing their passions and their joys with the rest of the world. Combining their two sets of interests creates an abundance of fun topics on their blog from fashion and shopping to cooking and traveling to reading and religion. Brandi and Sherry cover so many interesting topics that I am sure you will all find something of interest.

I am not even going to attempt to paraphrase their mission because I cannot word it as eloquently and beautifully as they have. So in the words of Sherry and Brandi, their mission with Just Live Joy is “to ignite true joy within and to inspire a journey of the soul. Joy cannot be found. It cannot be bought. True joy can only be found within yourself. This blog is about loving yourself no matter the circumstances. Believe us…that takes a lot of practice. It’s about learning to live with grace, gratitude, purpose, passion, AND having a lot of fun along the way.”

Not only do they have a brilliant way with words and impeccable style, but they live their mission to the fullest. Always kind, always caring, always ready to lend a helping hand. I know this first hand because I have reached out to Sherry for some blogging tips and she was generous with her time in giving me a very detailed response that was ever so helpful. The blogging community is lucky to have these two wonderful women offering their love and light into a world that can sometimes be dark and confusing. For that, I am always grateful. For all of you who do your part to spread kindness and love, I am always grateful.
