Hello there,
![]()
Yesterday was Inspiration Monday with the Two Birds. Emily Rossum was the muse. Anyone who's read my blog (and seen her in two previous Inspiration Mondays) for a while knows I like her lots!!! She was fabulous in Phantom of the Opera. Her look was a little too smart for this teacher on holiday but I decided to go with the colours and do a 'casual' version of the look.
![IM Monday 14-4-14 collage]()
Aside from my trusty sequin jeans (owned since 2nd year of uni= that's 13 years ago!!), I added this pink heart-cardie (thrifted/charity shop), cat flats, embroidered by me and shrimp earrings assembled by me, as it's Easter Week, I decided to wear my Easter tee-shirt - well it's a t-shirt I wear through the year but I always make a point of wearing it on Easter week, usually Good Friday.
When I saw it at the Christian Resources exhibition, I knew I had to have it- it says it all in 2 words. Amazing Grace and of course the song immediately plays in my head:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost and now am found,
Was blind but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall profess, within the vail,
A life of joy and peace.
When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the Sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.
Chorus:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
I was glad to wear that t-shirt yesterday...
Hope you are well.

I am also linking to Renae at Simple Sequin's Think Pink fashion item Friday with my pink belt and cardie as I am not likely to be able to get any photos done on Friday. Please consider joining in with wearing pink or having a pink post Friday to support Renae as she has her chemo on Friday!
