LIFESTYLE
I realize this blog has a lot to do with the phyiscal spaces we lives in but my life is full of so much more than that. In fact, that's only a tiny sliver of Jordan Jean and this slice of the internet! There's so many other areas that spark joy in my life and my hope is that through these posts you'll feel that joy too. I'm a relentless believer, constantly striving to give up all control to the only One deserving. I do my best to saturate intention into my time and anything I buy, wear, use, and bring into our home. I love me a good sweat and run a marathon from time to time to get one state closer to my ultimate goal of... 50. Oh, and I am a sucker for weddings. Don't worry though, there's more. Dive in below!
HAIR + MAKE UP
In August of last year I shared my curly girl routine HERE that I had been using for about 6 months at that point. It was a very long and detailed post with a video included so if you’re just getting started with your own curly girl journey, I suggest starting there! In the months […]

Hi! Something that I learned quickly on this curly girl journey is that updos are a curly girl’s BFF. I couldn’t make it through day 3ish-5 or 6 without them! I figured that what I’d do is create this vault of sorts where I’ll share all of my updos with you all so that they […]

Hi friends! I’m not kidding when I say “every single detail about my skincare routine” will be in this post. You’ve asked and asked and asked so you shall receive! I’m about to share it ALL with you and why my face looks the way it looks. Okay pause. It feels foolish to even say […]
August 21, 2019
The wait is over! The curly girl post if here!!!! If you’re wondering what in the hey Adams I’m talking about, today I’m going to share how I went from this to this (forgive me for not taking better photos! These are from my Instagram stories. I need to be better about documenting all of […]

Happy Thursday, friends! Today we’re talking every day makeup essentials. I’m not going to go into the HOW just yet (don’t worry, it’s on the schedule) but I am going to start by sharing the products I use every single morning before I go to work in case you want to try some of these yourself. […]

Happy Friday! This week has been filled with lots of writing, a few headaches, and a lot of “adulting”. Oh boy… Nothing is finalized yet so we aren’t ready to share but I will say that big things are happening for the Tupta’s right now! We will definitely update you all down the road! Anyway, […]

I have a feeling this series is going to be one of my favorites. I really enjoy reflecting back on my week and highlighting all of the moments and things that brought joy to my life. Hurricane Harvey While this isn’t something that screams happiness and certainly not a favorite of mine, I think it’s […]
September 1, 2017
I’m so excited to be writing this post. This is something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time and am finally getting started on it! Friday favorites! I have so many things that I love throughout the days/weeks that go unshared. Usually it’s just a thought to myself or maybe it’s a quick […]

Happy Saturday! This is something a bit different today but it has been requested by so many people so I’m happy to finally be writing this! I do want to warn you though, I’m still trying to figure out how to take pictures of the back of my head (it’s a lot harder than I […]
July 30, 2016
It’s time for round 2! This time I’m going to focus on keeping my hair “styled” aka not the wavy/curly creature that tends to come alive on my head. I will continue using Bastiste Dry Shampoo when I need it and of course, I will tell you when that is. This week I will be doing slightly less […]
December 7, 2015
Good morning! I’ve been told so many times and read all over that washing your hair frequently is a bad, bad thing to do. I started to do some research on the topic and realized that there is no clear recommendation. Everything pretty much says, “It depends on the hair type, person’s preference, etc.” Of […]

Something I didn’t expect to battle with postpartum is having such a hard time getting dressed. It’s such a minor thing in the grand scheme of life, I know, but it’s just one more thing to add onto the rest of the giant list that I’ve experienced and thought, “Well shoot. Mamahood is hard!” I […]
March 18, 2021
It all started with a pair of shoes that I’ve been eyeing for over a year. Yes, you heard that right… Over a year. I knew that I would get a lot of use out of them in the warmer months but by the time I could work them into the budget, they were out […]

This post is sponsored by Fawn Design. However, all opinions shared on jordanjean.com are always my own. One item in particular that I know mamas-to-be can get wrapped up researching is diaper bags.

After a week of interacting with you all on Instagram and here on the blog, I love to cap off Friday by sharing with you my recent favorites! These are things that I’m absolutely loving (and most likely have used/read/watched/done well more than once throughout the week!). Let’s jump right into it with… THESE BOOTS! […]
February 14, 2020
Happy Friday! I’m back to capping off the week with all the things that brought me some extra joy! Let’s get into this! Maroon Sweater Tank – I got this last week because I know it’ll be a staple for me through the fall and winter seasons. Even the spring too! It’s so versatile! I […]
August 23, 2019
Happy Friday! I’m more happy than normal that we’re here today. This week for some reason I haven’t been able to keep the days straight. I even had to look at my phone yesterday to figure out what day it was because I swore it was Wednesday… That’s pretty bad. With the combination of running a […]

Hi! Happy Saturday! I know I don’t typically post on the weekend but with all of the craziness this week I haven’t had the chance to get this post out. Since fall is on the horizon I think it’s time we start talking about fall capsule wardrobes! If you’re new to capsule wardrobes, you can […]
September 15, 2018
Happy Friday! If you haven’t read this post in which I shared the why, what, & how behind my capsule wardrobe, do that first! This post will make much more sense if you do. Even though we’re creeping into fall, I wanted to make sure to share this with you all so that you could get […]
August 10, 2018
This past spring Stephen and I decided to try out a capsule wardrobe for the summer. Before we went out and purchased anything though, we knew we had to go through a massive purge of our closet (more on that later!) to determine what we already owned that we wanted to keep in our capsules. It was emotionally exhausting, […]

Happy Monday! I hope you all are having a great day so far! We have an exciting project going on around the house that we started this weekend! I showed part of it in my Instagram post today if you haven’t checked it out. 🙂 I hope to get it all sanded, painted and touched up by […]

Easter Sunday is quickly approaching! Questions have been popping up in my messages about what to wear so I thought it might be helpful to share some budget friendly Easter outfits. Most of us use this joyous day as a great excuse to don our Sunday best and rightfully so! It is a glorious day of celebration! He is […]

Happy Saturday! It feels very surreal writing this post. I remember when I was 21 and would talk about life in the next few years like it was so far away. At the time it sure did feel that way but MAN does life fly by or what?! “They” say that it goes by even […]

Happy Tuesday! I’m going to preface this by saying that I was a really “bad blogger” this weekend and didn’t manage to get out during the day (when it wasn’t raining) to get a picture of my outfit so I’m super sorry! I’ve had so many questions about it since I posted on Instagram that I figured […]

AIR FORCE
I’ve been itching (and praying) for the time when I could share write this post and here we are. If you’ve been keeping up with my (almost) weekly letters or the little blurbs I’ve shared on my Instagram, you know we’ve had a lot going on in our family with my brother. If you have […]

Two weeks ago tomorrow, Stephen and I were sleeping in the house I grew up in when I awoke to multiple messages (mostly from friends stationed or deployed across the globe) asking if Stephen was okay. “Yeah, he’s was sleeping right next to me, what’s up?” I quickly learned that there had been a fatal […]
July 13, 2020
MISS-ISS-IPPI! Ohhhh baby here we go. We’re headed (back) to Columbus, MS. Stephen was stationed in Columbus for two years while completing UPT (pilot training) and IFF (the training pilots go through once they find out they’ll be flying a fighter) at the start of his pilot career. We actually got engaged there during one […]

Last week I was interviewed for a podcast titled, “Faith, Family, and The Force”. AnnaBeth and Oliver, the creators of the podcast, had a dream of having a radio show someday and realized “Hey! It’s 2018! We can do this now!” so they did. YOU GUYS! After listening to all of the episodes, I couldn’t help […]

FINANCES
Hey guys! Today we’re sharing habits that we suggest creating when trying to use a budget, resources to use on your financial freedom journey, and some frequently asked questions. If you haven’t watched the first two videos of the series, we suggest you start by watching those first! Our Debt Journey + How we got […]
April 9, 2020
Happy Monday! Today we’re going to be sharing with you all how we create a budget using the (free) Every Dollar app. If you haven’t watched our first video on why we use a budget, how we got out of debt, etc. we suggest watching that one first before moving onto today’s video. In case […]
April 6, 2020
I’m so excited to be sharing this video (and series!) with you all! A few years ago after we got married and acquired debt, we started learning a lot about money and how life changing it can be to achieve financial freedom. We’ve become so passionate about it! Since we started sharing tidbits of that […]
April 2, 2020
Woof. This post is one that I can’t believe I’m writing. You might’ve noticed that in that past month+ or so, I’ve been pretty quiet on here. There has been a LOT happening behind the scenes, a lot in the works, and it’s finally time to share some of it with you guys! Before I […]
April 18, 2019
We are so excited to be finally sharing this post with you all! Since we started following Dave Ramsey’s teachings we’ve sworn by a budget. Having a budget has helped us tremendously, with and without debt. We know even the word ‘budget’ itself can sound pretty intimidating but we’re here to tell you that it […]
May 9, 2018
A couple of days ago I mentioned in my stories that we’re currently living on one income. I suppose it was a cliff hanger of sorts. I really just wanted to save all of the details for this little blog of mine so I could fully explain why we’re living this way. We are DINKs […]

Happy Wednesday, friends! I’m sorry I’ve been a bit MIA this week. I’ve been working hard to complete some in-progress projects on the house this week. I’m hoping that I get at least one of them done tomorrow! Fingers crossed… Last week we did a giveaway on Instagram with three copies of “Total Money Makeover”. […]

When you think about how to spend your money what do you think about? Other than the necessities like food and your rent/mortgage and utilities, where can you put your money so that it will leave you feeling satisfied? Should it be used to buy things that you like, or to go somewhere and experience […]
April 18, 2018
We talked about how we paid off our new car here but there’s so much more we can say about our thoughts on money. So before we dive into budgeting later on this week, we want to lay it all out here and share these thoughts. This hopefully will provide a better understanding as to […]
April 11, 2018
A couple of months ago Dave Ramsey shared one of my posts that I had shared on Instagram about us paying off our new car. It brought a lot of you here which I’m so incredibly thankful for and it also brought along a lot of questions, the most popular of them all – How […]
April 3, 2018
The other day when I asked if a Q&A would be something you all were interested in, I immediately received a bunch of money related questions for both me and Stephen. To be honest this wasn’t on the schedule to post for a couple of weeks but I think these questions are fantastic and should take […]
February 22, 2018
Weddings can be expensive. The word expensive being subjective of course. To a millionaire, $50,000 probably doesn’t seem like a lot for a wedding but to me, that’s a heck of a lot of money to spend on one day! Don’t get me wrong, it’s arguably one of the most important days of your life […]
