Outfit || Autumn in April

   So, it seems that I am addicted to stripes (of course, you already knew that) and jersey-knit skirts, most especially when the two combine. Just take a look at all of this year's outfit posts. >.< This particular outfit combines my new maxi skirt with a cozy sweater that looks like the perfect outfit for October; The only problem is that I wore this outfit last week. It's like Christmas in July right?

   Maxi skirts are perfect for those days when I want to look cute while simultaneously keeping things quick and simple. On the day I wore this outfit, I kept things super comfortable and cozy by styling my long skirt with a t-shirt and chunky knit cardigan. A belt reined in the flowing sweater for a more sleek outline while a gold cross necklace lent the outfit some sparkle.

   In closing, I want to share part of a favorite hymn. "I Need Thee" should be our heart's song to the Lord every day. How often we forget our dependence on Him; When physical ailments or difficult circumstances come, they remind us to cry out to Him - sometimes it's all we are able to do! The world drills into us the ideas of independence and self-confidence, but the truth is we need each other and even more so, our Creator.
 

I need thee every hour
Most gracious Lord
No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford 

 

I need thee every hour
Stay thou near by
Temptations lose their power
When thou art nigh 

 

I need Thee every hour,

In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide,

Or life is vain.

 

Chorus:

I need thee oh I need thee
Every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior
I come to thee
