We get advice from everywhere these days about what's hot, popular, and the greatest fashion on the market. It seems as if everyone wants us to "dress for success." I enjoy shopping and finding the perfect outfit as much as any girl. I also enjoy being the best looking one in the room, but a lot today's skimpy fashion choices can be a challenge for the girl who seeks modesty, and let's face it, choosing not to dress modestly can get us into a lot of trouble ladies. This does not mean that we must reside to wearing only t-shirts and jeans everyday.
I want you to think about a few things:
What or maybe who is it that influences what cloths you buy and wear? and how would you rate each ones influence on you life?
A friend
A spouse or boyfriend
The media (i.e magazines, TV etc.)
God
Your parents
If we are not careful, we become so saturated and overwhelmed by media and others influence that we do everything we can to be what others and the media say we should be and look like, thus loosing ourselves in the process.
As we begin to loose ourselves just to fit in, we may begin making poor choices with our clothing, (i.e wearing tight outfits that show our figure, as well as shirts that are low cut and skirts that are too short).
If we're honest ladies we all know that when we put on that low cut shirt, we are more likely to flirt in more provocative ways and we notice that we get more guys to pay attention to us. So what's wrong with that you ask?
Well, it's really a matter of what kind of attention you want to attract...do you want guys to just lust after you or do you want then to want to get to know you as a person, and not just your body parts?
Don't misunderstand me, we all desire attention and great beauty, we were created as women beautifully and beauty has power that every woman on the planet posses. This quote form Dannah Gresh Speaks to how modesty functions to make us powerful women.
"Modesty is the source of this delicate yet formidable power, making it a power in and of itself. It's delicate because it can be so innocently given away without your even knowing it. It's formidable - or difficult to deal with or control - because once you've mastered it, no man will be given access to the full secrets behind your allure until you so desire."
So what are we to wear you ask?
Tip #1
1. Tank tops are a life saver (you can were then under almost any low cut shirt)
