New Spanx Fall Wardrobe Builders

New Spanx Fall Wardrobe Builders

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Spanx has done it again. When you think they can’t make clothing any better, they create new technology that changes the way you look and feel in their clothing.

It’s not your average denim and pant drop. Introducing Spanx Shape & Denim edit SPANXshape EveryWear Jeans Premium pull-on denim with built-in core shaping technology that hugs your curves, shapes your core, moves with you, and feels good.

Spanx Smooth- Style that smooth and gently hugs and enhances your figure.

Outfit 3 

The Air Essentials line is buttery soft. Some brands have tried to duplicate this fabric, but I have tried them, and no one does this fabric like Spanx. You can’t compare. It is worth every penny if it’s in your budget. (I would say the price point is comparable to Lululemon)

Air Essentials long crew red med. I’m wearing it over my shoulders to add that third piece that finishes the outfit. Size down in this tunic, as it runs big.

Thank you for all the kind messages, comments and prayers! I appreciate you being apart of my tribe.

My greatest joy is being their MOM 🤍🤍🤍 My greates My greatest joy is being their MOM 🤍🤍🤍

My greatest accomplishment is the family we’ve built.🤍

Not only the children I birthed, whom I am so very proud of and thank God every day for,
 but to the home we opened up to others and the family that came from friends and children we’ve been so blessed to have apart of our lives.

Family is something you build not just something you’re given. It truly brings me so much joy to have a full home, to feed others, open our hearts and be a safe space. 

I am grateful everyday for those in our life’s and apart of our “FAMILY” it makes my mama heart happy🤍🤍🤍

Thankful to the two that made me a CoCo @hampton.v_  @kaylee.thompson24 🤍 The love & joy he brings is something nobody could have prepared me for🤍

I know Mother’s Day can be hard for some, with their mamas no longer with them or with having a hard time becoming one on their own🙏🏻🤍 my heart goes out to you! You’ll be in my prayers🙏🏻

🌸Happy Mother’s Day pretty ladies and my your day be full of everything you need it to be🤍🤍🤍

A few of my favorite quotes ⬇️⬇️⬇️

“Motherhood: Because privacy is over-rated”. —Russ Ediger

“Thank God for a praying mother”. —Bobbie Burrow

“Faith is the foundation of a strong, loving family and Mama is the cornerstone”. —Renee Daniels

“Moms just know… How to help. How to heal. How to listen. How to love.”
