Keep on Keepin...warm!

 

It is no doubt a VERY chilly day across the country today!!  I had no idea it was even that cold or rainy, as I got to school around 6:45 a.m. and stayed in said classroom (without windows) until 3:30 when I finally ventured out to my car. I found it to be cold AND rainy. This showed me it was the perfect time to go get a peppermint mocha and learn more blog skills. Yay!

 

Here is my OOTD. I love love love this tunic.  I bought it consignment for less than $10.00.  I dressed it up with a pretty pink necklace and just felt warm, cute, and professional all day today. 

 

This definitely helps, as any other fellow teachers know out there, teaching can be so rewarding, and yet on others so tiring and challenging that you leave that day feeling frustrated at the world and yourself. Yesterday was one of those days for me. My students (and trust me, I see over 200 different students each day) were wiley after the break.  A cute outfit and some Starbucks were just needed for this week.  I have been feeling frustrated and restless with myself and others. 

 

So cheers to you out there, do something kind for yourself today. Remember as I must, that you can't control others. You can only care for them, but you must remember to care for your own heart and soul as well.  I hope all is well for you today, and please take care of yourself as well as the others in your life that you care so much for. Xoxo.

 

 

Meet OKC Glam

Hello World!

My name is Amanda, and this is my new blog! I am so excited to start posting here and sharing my life, adventures, creations, and inspirations.

     
A little about me. I am a 20-something female reigning from the mid-midwest of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. I love my dear Oklahoma City and the way we are growing. It is not the most fashion inspired place, but I want to share the joys and beauty I find in it every day!! (Pictured is the OKC Downtown Skyline, and a little team I adore called the THUNDER!!!!)

 

I am an art teacher full time.  I love my students and have learned alot in the 3 years teaching from these little friends (and yes I really am that pale).

I dabble part time in just about everything else, especially local modeling, arts and crafting, fashionista-ing, exercising, and the list goes on.

 I am religious and spiritual it tends to be something I keep more to myself as a special thing between me and God. BUT I will say it is important to me to be a light and love for others to shine God into the world. :-)  You may hear about these musings from time to time. Trust me I respect everyone's opinions and I am just as happy to hear any side whether it's my thoughts or not. You never know what will spark something in you!

 

I find the most important thing in my life is to find inspiration and give it to others where you can.  I have started exploring blogland about 6 months ago, and I love finding so much insight from other bloggers and learning not just about their style but their lives. 

 

 

  I hope that my little corner of the internet here will help share my own adventures, inspire, and for me to be inspired as well!

Xoxo,

Amanda
