Welcome & About

“whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”
Philippians 4:8
My name is Barbie, and I am the blogger behind Whatever Lovely, a Christian blog on fashion, home & garden with a lot of country living. Read an article that will sweep you up in the romance of wifely ambitions of the home, garden, and something pretty to wear in it, and enjoy a bit of country life too.

We have clear answers in the Holy Bible about how we should think, speak, behave, and live as women and wives. Instead of letting popular culture form our mindset and behavior, go back to the unchanging Word of God who gives us clarity about all things. The Lord Jesus be glorified in all that we do.

Come walk the garden with me as I introduce you to my endearing friends “Lilac, Rose, Hydrangea, Camilia….” the list goes on. There is always a new plant to meet or a new idea for garden design.

I show fashion that works for the realities of daily life, like being outdoors, with children, pets, and dirt. My goal is to help you build a classy and feminine wardrobe, but especially one that works for your (country, perhaps?) life outdoors, with children, animals, and weather. I also show that whimsical romance fits into daily living through textiles. colors and shapes. Featuring sewing pattern reviews, fabric fancies, & lots of dresses.

Follow my decor and design adventures as I detail it all here.

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Colossians 3:15-16
