All Things Work Together

Hello Lovelies, 
  I was just sitting back thinking about how good God has been to me! Just looking back over my life and remembering the many attempts at suicide, the depression, the therapy sessions, the cutting, the seizures the doubt. God continues to bring this back to my remembrance because these places are exactly were he has brought me from. I grew up in the church so I have heard Romans 8:28 many times. However, I never knew what it truly meant until I had my own struggle and my own trials. I use to think I would never love myself and now I love myself more than I have ever loved myself. I use to think that I would never graduate from college, but I just finished my Bachelors Degree in Marketing Management with Summa Cum Laude honors. If God can bring you to it, God will bring you through it! " Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,  because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.  Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything"- James 1:2-4

  Stay strong! Remember that God is always on our side! 

Much Love and God Bless!

If you do not know who Sarah Jakes is, I will take the honor of introducing you to her today! Sarah Jakes is not only the daughter of world renowned Bishop T.D Jakes. She is a mother, a speaker, and now an author of her new novel, "Lost & Found". Although she is creating such a great name of her own and is such a beautiful woman of God, she has one thing that church girl chic loves and that is her own personal style! Lately Sarah has been promoting her new book and she has been doing it wearing her best threads! Sarah has a very stylish, fun, fashionable, sophisticated yet age appropriate style. Here are just a few of her looks that were to die for!






I am so happy for Sarah and all of her accomplishments!! She is such a beautiful person inside and out. If you follow her on her social media accounts, she tries to mention where her pieces are from!! And make sure you pick up her book "Lost & Found".

NOT ASHAMED....... I AM BACK!

Hello Everyone!!
   I know it has been a while since I have blogged. Over the past few years my life has been thorough many ups and many downs. I want to first apologize to the faithful readers of the blog. To see that so many people have still read the blog, and commented on blog posts have brought so much joy to my heart. When I first started this blog I wrote it because I was coming out of a place of darkness. I was in a transition to began a new journey. This blog blessed me in so many ways that I can not even express. I met so many different people and touched so many lives, and for this I am thankful.
   I remember when I use to tell people I blogged. I never told them that I had a Christian Fashion Blog because I was afraid of what people would think. Would they laugh? Would they think it was a bad idea? I even thought about giving the blog a new name and changing the entire theme of the blog. I had lost myself and the meaning behind what the blog was really suppose to be about, and that is MINISTRY! God gave me this idea to do something I love, while also bringing my faith in God into the mix.
   I can now say that I am not ashamed! God has healed me from epilepsy, and depression. God has allowed me to touch lives and earn not one but two college degrees over the past three years. I can never again be ashamed of a God that has been more than great to me! To all of my supporters, I thank you because without you all, I would have never continued this ministry!

What is to come??
  I am graduating from college Saturday and I am returning back to my calling, Church Girl Chic! I will be updating you all about where my life is now! There will also be many style posts to come!

Much Love and God Bless!!

~Crystal
