June 20, 2019 by keepingupwithMJ

**All images were taken by Duran Andrae. // trousers-zara I previously broke the internet with the news of my upcoming nuptials. *Breathe*. I know you are all still recovering (and if you haven’t read it and see the photos, click here and here and here to see more), but I wanted to share this post today about self-love, with hopes that it may help someone this week! Judging by the title…I know a bit cliché and all, but completely necessary + relevant. […]

don’t let the new year scare you.

December 18, 2017 by keepingupwithMJ

Hello loves, To be honest, when I think of starting a new year I am always excited and nervous at the same time. I’m sure I’m not the only one with these feelings, but that’s all it is…mere feelings. 99% of the time when you think about all the things there is to look forward too, the good outweighs the bad. I’m sure no one can tell me different. Every year when December comes around, the world goes crazy looking […]

bye bye comfort zones.

July 11, 2017 by keepingupwithMJ

Stepping out of your comfort zone is never an easy task, then again taking any step onto an new path is scary. Should that stop us? Should we be so afraid or caught up in what seems familiar that we X out every other possible new venture? In case you do not know the answer, it’s “NO“. We cannot allow ourselves to lose out on something that may be better for us. Often times I get nervous, anxious, “uncomfortable” and […]

the denim jacket.

March 17, 2017 by keepingupwithMJ

It’s sprinter and I’m still trying to keep up with this change in weather everyday. One day it’s hot, the next it’s cold, then rainy days turn into snow days! Can we catch a break? Well here in NYC there was a day where the weather was lovely and this was the outfit I chose to wear. The denim jacket have been in effect for years now. Going back to the days of Elvis down to modern day fashion icons […]

communicate.

March 14, 2017 by keepingupwithMJ

taking the time to communicate is important. before you read remember, talking things out is more beneficial and it gives room for growth. take time to communicate and express how you feel. take time to let out all the hurt that has been built up, because what good is it to keep it all locked up? what good will it be to you to never say, at any time of the day, the way someone or something is or has […]

who is the father?

June 19, 2016 by keepingupwithMJ

Feel like crying? Run into his arms for comfort, but know he’ll kill the guy who caused it. Attentive, accurate, accepting, and always knowing what to say to make you smile. Teaches you the basics of life: right from wrong. Tries to make you understand why certain things happen the way it does. Takes care of his responsibilities. He’s irreplaceable. Hard on you, but wishes nothing but the best for you. Hard-worker. He loves you with everything in him, although […]

a mother’s love.

May 8, 2016 by keepingupwithMJ

A mother is a person who gives without thinking twice, She has a undying love that continues to touch your soul even when she is gone. Feels good to know that if ever the world turned against you, your mother never did and she never will. No one can ever care for you like your mother will or have. Sleepless nights of constant prayer, preparation of meals, making sure everything is ready by the time you wake up, Who can […]

truth about being alone.

April 29, 2016 by keepingupwithMJ

Who said being alone was a bad thing? Getting to know and understand yourself, figuring your purpose and finding out who you are can never be a bad thing. Women in particular are more shunned for not being in serious relationships by their peers, family members, even public figures, but is this really something that should continually be done? It actually seem to me that women suffer a whole lot more emotionally by the constant questioning about not being in […]
