Launched in 2013 as the army for the slaying fashionista, the cutting-edge creative and the bold believer, Adorned in Armor serves as a source of killer inspiration and encouragement towards their audacious dreams.

 

 

If you love dressing up, acquiring skills to presenting your best self at work, and/or reading unique and enlightened perspectives on today’s issues, you’ve joined the right army. AIA serves to satisfy your eyes and soul through style posts, faith and inspiration, and the occasional go-getter tips for the creative in professional settings. You’ll leave AIA feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world when equipped with the weapons to put your best gladiator-cladded foot forward.

 

Here at Adorned in Armor, we believe:

• In girlbossness. This is a women supporting women zone. We wholeheartedly believe in helping you achieve your goals! 
• In uplifting others. This is an outlet where the only attacks will be between you and those life obstacles. 
• Loving fashion isn’t vain. You can be spiritually woke and look fabulous. In other words, you can be the fashionable woman that you are and still have substance. With class, too.
• In Jesus. I’m an unashamed believer so everything I say and do is stemmed from my faith but I will never force my beliefs on you. 

 

Adorned in Armor has been featured on the Independent Fashion Blog, the InfluenceHer Collective, Cosmopolitan UK’s site and nominated for the 2014 Best International Fashion Blog. Some brand collaborations include Teen Vogue, Maybelline, Dove, Shopbop, Banana Republic, Asos and several others.

 

 

AIA was inspired by Ephesians 6’s message about putting on the full armor of God. Day to day, we unknowingly tread the battlefield defenseless! How can you expect victory when you’re not adorned in armor?  You have to dress yourself in the proper uniform in order to fight victoriously. 

 

 

Now that we covered the essence of AIA, let’s delve into the creator of the site: me, Tarah-Lynn Saint-Elien! You all can call me Tarah, though.

 

 

 

 

I am a 22 year old college graduate living in NJ. As a fierce and favored fashionista, I began this blog to document my personal style and motivate women through my love for Christ. My end goal is to be a top fashion correspondent hosting red carpet events, travelling and writing for major fashion and faith publications. I have been using my brand, Adorned in Armor, to remain active into the fashion industry and also to empower young women. In style, of course! Adorned in Armor has boosted my resume, being a huge influence on my landing internships with names such as Elle, Gorgeous in Grey & PBS, catapulted me into becoming a Teen Vogue It Girl, and obtained major paid sponsorships with brands I love.

 

I have a long way to go but I'm happy to have you with me! Hope you continue to come back so we can get to know one another and grow together as we fight our way to our God-given destinies together! Follow me on Instagram & Twitter, subscribe and armor up to slay today.
