College Style Diary 1






College has officially started this week. So I am trying to blog and do homework at the same time. Honestly, my shirt/jacket-thingy I got from the Economy Shop. The Economy Shop is only the best thrift store on the West Side of Chicago located in Oak Park. I had been waiting until my first real day of painting to actually "mess it up" with my stylish oil paint brushstrokes. A lot of times I feel a little self conscious especially about how loud my style is on campus, and maybe a few of my readers feel that way as well. Still, know that no matter what it is always good to be different and besides in my opinion you are never too overdressed. I felt the need to be creative today. I know that this outfit did not come from a big store or online store, but for once I want to focus on being and doing me. Right now, it doesn't matter if I get sponsors or not. Right now, what matters is that I had the confidence to be me no matter what. I never really told anyone how I felt about fashion blogging at first, but I think now is the right time to tell that story. 

I always dreamed of blogging, but I was not exactly the most confident person in the world. I was dealing with some body image issues since I was like 13 until 19, for six years, which was recently this year. It was not easy turning off that negative voice in my head or not comparing myself to other girls. I thought I had it all under control until last year I finally gave in and prayed to God for real. Often times, I feel like as Christians we are so caught up praying about the world, our families, praying for discerning spirits, that we forget to talk to God about what is really going on with us. My first year of college really opened my eyes about how I wanted to see myself in the future. I asked myself did I really want to live the rest of my life upset about how God chose to make me or did I want to be thankful and accept myself. I got some extra help through counseling, prayed, read a few books, and I really pulled myself together. To a lot of people that might seem fast but six years was such a long time to struggle with how I saw myself. Having negative self body image issues not only affected me internally, but it affected me in relationship choices, and in my dream of blogging. I noticed that when it came to dating or not really dating, but seeking people it was always because I wanted someone to make me feel better about myself. When they told me something bad about myself I would try to change myself, and this went on for a while. Until I figured out that I deserve the best and reading Lisa Bevere's book, "Kissed The Girls and Made Them Cry" helped me as well. Knowing that I am a daughter from a king helped me realize that I should not have to change for me, and I should not make anyone change for me. Once I did this I stopped searching for love because I knew that no matter what I am loved by my Heavenly Father. Whether a guy likes me or not I cannot change for anyone I can only be the only Makayla I can be. I see a difference in myself. Like, there is a new confidence in me and it's not because I know that I am just all that and I have my life put together because I don't it's because I really truly did find the greatest love of all. I found love through God and the love inside of me. I used to hinder my fashion blog because I was afraid I would look fat, and no one would like or follow my blog. I was wrong because I believe I look great, and people have started liking my blog. I personally feel a little sad that some people have not read my blog or gave it a chance, because I talk about some great stuff on here. 

So why am I talking about the issue I had and overcame? Because my FancyMouse darlings, I want each and every one of you to feel confident and beautiful in your own skin! No matter if that means praying, or going through counseling, or reading self-help books. It doesn't matter if it takes you awhile to get through this just know that you are not alone. I wrote this piece for the people who wonder what is this blog about? This blog is about fashion, but it also focuses on women's' empowerment through God. Whether that means a piece on modesty, purity, or encouragement. I want every young woman reading this to feel as great about themselves as I do. This is why at the end of every blog post I put PSALMS 139:13-15, because I want every girl and woman, no matter what shape or size that they are God's wonderful Masterpiece. It is so beautiful to me to know that God knitted me together in my mother's womb. It lets me know how great of an artist He is and how much He loves me and you because He could have just thrown us together but He did not. I am a fan of God's work and you should be too.

Fashion and Christianity?

I know what many people must be thinking when I say that I am a Christian young woman who loves fashion. Many people might say that in this day in age you cannot fuse together Christianity and Fashion it is just not done, but I beg to differ. There are ways that you can still look fashionable but modest at the same time. I know that many young women do not want to hear that because so many of us are so in love with crop tops and short shorts. Now I am not going to say you can't wear the trending clothes because God did not say can't He said how. When it comes to fashion and modesty it comes to how you wear something. So in my understanding if you want to wear a crop top try to balance it out like don't wear overly tight jeans, short shorts, or a mini skirt. Try a classic Midi skirt or try some harem pants and a cute sweater or kimono. That way you are still wearing what you love but you are not being as revealing. 

When most people think about sin they think it is the part when you kiss someone or even have sex before marriage, but it starts way before that. It all starts with lust. Lust is a thought in the mind, the real sin starts way before you act on it. So when thinking about clothing in some parts of the Fashion world sometimes clothes can be a bit too revealing. In revealing can sometimes lead to thought, thoughts lead to lust, and lust is the sin which leads the way into deeper sin. Modesty gives you and another person a pure mindset of what you are wearing. Having a pure mindset and the right kind of modest clothes on forces the other person to get to know you. It forces them because they can no longer lust about what they want to do to you. Their vision on your appearance is harder to visual if you are not wearing something as revealing. 

There are several scriptures in the bible that talk about Modesty. The first one is 1 Tim 2:9. 1 Timothy 2:9 explains that modesty is a way to not draw attention to the body in a sexual type of way. Notice that modesty does not say that you cannot dress fashionable but it does say you should not dress very sexual. It even goes deeper to say that modesty is the outward manifestation of inward purity. Sometimes there are some fashion companies that do dress or style clothes to show too much which stimulate impure thoughts. Then the church sees nothing wrong with this and follows after it. Which is wrong because as Christians our light is supposed to shine and that means how we walk, talk, and even dress is supposed to be different. For me I love fashion to the heart but I do not think I would ever have my boobs out or my butt cheeks showing because to me that is not lady like. Some women go too far in my opinion. There are a lot of ways you can style dress modestly and have class while still being fashionable. I mean look at all of my posts; none of them really show me disrespecting my body and that is all I am trying to do. Is encourage young women and girls that we do not have to become sex symbols. A lot of times we complain that this world has turned into women just barely wearing clothes and talking about their own bodies with disrespect in their songs. Yet, we never really talk about a solution or what caused this problem. We can blame stars and blame men for disrespecting us, but respect starts with the person. How you want to be treated starts explicitly with the type of person you are and allow yourself to be. We all have our own choices no one not even God forces us will make us put o immodest or modest clothes. So basically as women we have really cannot always blame the males for disrespecting us because we allow them to. Older and wiser women always say that we took away the males imagination a long time ago. Which I am afraid to say but I agree because we did. Last year almost every artist had on a see through dress or a high split dress and a few months later the dresses were selling in the stores like hot cakes. Is this really what we want? We say that we want equality and justice for females yet often our actions speak differently. This all boils down once again to a sin problem not a skin, or inequality problem. We chose to leave God out of all of our decisions and we suffer the consequences.

I did not write this article to shun or harshly judge the person, but I did write to give my stance and viewpoint on fashion and Christianity. The other stuff was just extra. I believe that you can dress fashionably but you just have to know your limit. Think to yourself who am I dressing for? Am I dressing to impress a guy who is not really going to be impressed but see me as an object? Do I have way too much skin showing? Will I cause people to sin when they look at me? Those are a few questions I ask myself sometimes. I am not going to lie because I am young so I am still growing, but sometimes I want to show off the weight I lost or I want to show off in my clothes. We cannot always do that, because that could make people sin without you actually knowing. Please understand I am just writing this article based on what I believe and how my fashion blog is written. Basically, this is like a synopsis of what my blog will be focused on. If you would like to know about fashion and modesty here are a few more scriptures you can turn to in your bible also the Bikini TED Talk on how men view womens' bodies based on how much or how little clothes they wear: 
  • 1 Cor.6:19-20
  • 1 Peter 3:3-4
  • Proverbs 31:30
  • Proverbs 11:22
  • Matt.5:28
  • Deut. 22:5
  • 1 Peter 3:1-4
  • Psalms 27:4

Style Diary #7 Fall Collection: #BTS




Yesterday was the first day of college and now I am officially a college Sophomore! Yay, but yikes at the same time! My uber cute jacket from Aliexpress finally came got it on a deal. Also I love Korean stores and shopping online I mean who doesn't? I save so much money that way, because college is way too expensive here in the states. My shoes are those pointy flats from Target only 24 dollars. I thought that this was the perfect BTS outfit for an up and coming future Fashion Marketer like myself. 

This year I am going into the Marketing and Management field. I know that God has a plan for my life so I am going to stick with this. Today was really a good day and not just because I am back on campus but the Lord is really guiding me this year. I came to school with goals and things God on my mind. Last year, I made so many mistakes and honestly I just want to make a change in my life. I already got pretty good dorm roommates this year. My ultimate goal is to become a fashion marketer. Which is something I have been dreaming about for awhile now. This is my FancyMouse journey. There is a ton of competition out here for fashion blogging, so I am just going to be me and do what I have to do.

Style Diary: Fall LookBook Kinda 90s Grunge Style(Don't you Love Thrifting?)

I am kinda excited to talk about this picture because technically this whole outfit is secondhand except my sunglasses, shirt, and shoes, which were from Target. In Chicago we have so many cute little thrift stores and I wanted to get something that looked grunge and fashion-y without spending a ton of money. That's really the goal for being a college student. Most of the things you find at thrift stores are authentic. My leather skirt is actually 100% leather nothing fake and I only got it for 6 dollars at the thrift store. My oversized flannel checkered red shirt is not really a shirt, because on the inside it has coat material which is great for a fall look. My necklace came from my favorite online store: Choies! 

My fashion tip of the day is try to mix and match. Do not always go to the thrift store and do not always shop in regular stores put them together!

Dorothy Dandridge



I never really knew about Dorothy Dandridge until my sister said something abut her today. Honestly, I was always admired Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn, but I never really knew about Dorothy Dandridge she seems like an inspiring and person. I believe around her time she was not as popular because the color of her skin. Well, this just goes to show how little we know about our own culture. I know that I am not the only one that did not know about Dorothy Dandridge. A lot of people that are African American do not really know about her either. We idolize Audrey and Marilyn, not that it is a bad thing, but we do not know anything about Dorothy Dandridge. That is the saddest thing to me because her legacy died with her. That she wanted African American women to have the same recognition as other women. Like even with the natural hair movement and craze it is still sad that after years of having curly and coarse hair we have only recently learned how to maintain it and care for it. As women we are all caused to rise and when we are determined we cannot be stopped. Like with my blog I could easily give up but I am determined to keep pushing. My drive is strong and I cannot stop and I will not stop.

#ALLBLACKGIRLSDONT

When I first read this article it jumped out at me, I mean like literally. I never knew about black Twitter or any of those things. Until just recently I realized that it is another hashtag for the modern day race issues. I am not going to lie I did like this article because it is trying to break some stereotypes that most people have about black women/females. This was a great way to fight off stereotypes. The first tweet says that not all black or any other race does not all look a like. Which is true for us too because we have different skin colors and different hair textures. Still, I kind of never really hear people say that well at least not from where I am from. 

The tweet that was really relevant to my life was the one about speaking proper english. A lot of African American people see it as talking "white" which makes no sense. Most of my childhood people thought I came from the suburbs. Most of them were shocked when they found out I was from the city just like them. I know that it is great idea that we are getting rid of that talking about the normal stereotypes.Still as women  we need to pull us all together and even if that means not only talking about our own social issues.We need to defend all women while we are defending our own ethnic group.

Go Hard For Christ Back to School Kick Off


I had so much fun at Go Hard for Christ's back to school kick off party. I also looked cute so I had to put my new TomTop Paris shirt on and do it for the blog lol. Me and my curvy-ness slayed hunty! I also had my natural hair going on so you know how that goes. I thought this was okay for a carnival like event not too dressy but not too simple either. 

I also got to see JMJ perform live and Joseph Solomon both phenomenal Christian Artists and they really inspired me with their love for God. This outfit was modest yet cute. I took a normal see through shirt and wore it differently than the average girl would. Usually, people would probably pick a short black crop top. Nothing is wrong with crop tops I just do not like when girls wear crop top all the time. Personally, I think you have very little fashion sense if that is all you wear. I kind of wanted to make a silent but classy statement that you can be just as cute as you would be with the black crop top.
