Hey Cute, But You’ll Never Catch Me in One

There are some things in life that look undeniably adorable—but that doesn’t mean they’re for everyone. Case in point? Those frilly, overly ruffled, candy-colored dresses that look like something straight out of a storybook. Or maybe it’s the viral fashion trend of the moment: matching couples pajamas with cartoon reindeer, or tiny handbags that can barely fit a stick of gum. Cute? Sure. Fun? Definitely. But wear one? Oh no, honey—not me. That’s a solid thanks but no thanks.

This phrase—“Hey, cute, but you’ll never catch me in one”—perfectly captures the modern attitude of loving something aesthetically without feeling the need to adopt it yourself. It’s appreciation without commitment. It’s admiration from afar. It’s that balance between “aww” and “absolutely not.”

Let’s take a stroll through some of those things that fit the bill. You’ll see what I mean.

The Fluffy Pink Tulle Dress

You know the one. It looks like cotton candy exploded and left a cloud of pastel sweetness behind. The kind you see at fancy birthday parties or high-fashion photo shoots, with layers and layers of tulle. Honestly? It’s kind of iconic. On someone else.

Do I think it’s cute? Totally. Would I wear it to brunch? Not unless the theme is “Princess Dreamland” and I’m legally required. I’m more of a jeans-and-leather-jacket type of person. So while I’ll double-tap it on Instagram and admire it in all its glory, you better believe I’ll be admiring it from a safe distance.


Onesies (for adults)

Let’s be real for a moment. Onesies for babies? Adorable. Onesies for your dog? Hilarious and heart-melting. Onesies for grown-ups? That’s where I draw the line.

I get it, they’re cozy. They’re warm. There’s even something charming about the idea of walking around the house like a giant teddy bear. But between the awkward bathroom logistics and the potential for looking like a lost cartoon character, I have to pass. I’ll cheer you on while you rock that fleece dinosaur onesie at your Christmas party—but me? I’ll be the one in the corner sipping cider in a hoodie, silently whispering, “Never catch me in one.”

God’s Timing, Y’all

There’s a Southern saying that goes, “God may not come when you want Him, but He’s always right on time.” If you’ve ever found yourself frustrated, waiting, wondering, or straight-up begging for something to happen faster, you’ve probably heard—or said—some version of that line. But let’s be honest: waiting is hard. Trusting in something bigger than yourself when all you have is silence and uncertainty? That takes real faith.

Still, over and over again, life has a way of proving that God’s timing is not just good—it’s perfect. Even when we don’t understand it. Especially when we don’t understand it. So today, let’s talk about what it means to lean into that truth, because God’s timing, y’all, is a real thing.

Had to Add the Sunglass Drop 😎

You know that moment. The one where everything just clicks—where you’ve delivered the line, nailed the move, completed the glow-up, or won the argument—and you’re standing there like, “Yep, that’s it. Mic drop.” But in your version of the mic drop? It’s the sunglass drop. Because some moments in life are just too smooth, too stylish, and too iconic to walk away from without adding that final little flair.

You had to add the sunglass drop.

Why? Because sometimes you’re not just living—you’re making a statement.

The Power of the Sunglass Drop

Let’s unpack it for a second. What does it mean to “add the sunglass drop”?

It’s not about being cocky. It’s not even about being flashy. It’s about owning your moment. It’s about knowing you did what needed to be done, said what needed to be said, or showed up in a way that no one else could—and then sealing the deal with that cool, effortless energy. That flair. That “yes, I know I did that” attitude.

Sunglasses, in this context, aren’t just an accessory—they’re punctuation. Like a period at the end of a power sentence. Like a confetti cannon after the announcement. They say:

“I came. I saw. I slayed. 😎”


Moments That Deserve the Sunglass Drop

Not every moment in life calls for one. But when it does? You better deliver it right.

Let’s talk about those moments—big and small—when the sunglass drop is mandatory.
