3 Step Dress

So, as promised, here is my take on what dressing modestly looks like.

I think so many young woman take modest dress & wearing a potato sack are the same thing. The real question is, is it possible to look lovely AND dress in a way to respect our bodies. The answer is yes!
Does it take more time, and more work? Yes, but all good things do. Is it going to cost me more? It can, but doesn't have to.

Dressing modestly does not mean all your clothes have to be loose fitting, baggy and gross. There is a line between wearing something too tight and wearing something baggy. Here are some quick, easy questions to ask yourself when you are getting dressed to help you find the perfect line:


1. Can you see my underwear/bra line?
 -If the answer is yes, chances are the pants/shirt are too snug. It doesn't mean just throw on a thong or camisole and you're good to go. It means, strive for something that doesn't hug every curse so tightly.

2. Do they flatter my body type?
 -Just because you're not wearing something that resembles a second layer of skin doesn't mean you can't wear something flattering. Find something that fits your form. I don't mean stuck to you, but that flatters your body shape, and compliments your curves, and size.

3. What are your motives (conscious or not) behind the outfit?
- Who doesn't dress to impress a guy? Everyone does it, and there isn't anything wrong with dressing nicely, and putting a little extra time into your appearance for him. But, when you're putting on your shirt are you trying to attract a guy by the amount of cleavage it reveals? Or, are you wearing leggings as pants to attract his eyes to your legs, or butt?
Try dressing nicely, and appropriately and a gentleman will notice. He will notice they way you carry yourself with dignity and how your body looks lovely in nice clothing, but not like a sex symbol.

Anyway, I hope that these are helpful!

Have a beautiful weekend
