Rose...
I
cannot
afford
to
buy
ready-made
clothing
from
retail
stores
for
the
most
part
--
so I
only
occasionally
shop
in a
"retail
store."
But
I
really
prefer
the
quality
of
some
designer's
clothing
and
therefore,
I
look
for
WELL
MADE
clothing
--
including
home-sewn
clothing.
I
have
some
especially
favourite
brands
of
dresses
and
skirts
that
I
*know*
work
really
well
for
us
---
women
and
girls.
Below
are
the
brands
I
always
look
for
to
purchase
modest
clothes
for
myself
and
our
daughters.
And,
by
the
way,
for
our
boys
and
men,
I
look
for
brand
names
such
as
Eddie
Bauer,
Levi's,
Land's
End, Old
Navy,
Gap,
Bugle
Boy,
Carhartt,
etc.,
etc.
The
fabrics
used
are
generally
of
heavier
gauge
or
weight
and
the
stitching,
snaps
&
buttons
are
better
or
much
higher
quality.
If
*I*
am
doing
the
buying,
I
never
buy
trendy
or
what
I
call
cheap
or
"one
season"
clothes.
IMHO:
They're
a
tremendous
waste
of
money
and
never
look
that
nice
after
the
first
washing.

What

personally
wear
&
what
do I
look
for

shopping
for

at

Thrift
Stores?
I
look

Retail & Online Stores where I've found beautiful & feminine clothing |
|
April Cornell
When our son got married, I wore an April Cornell dress from a quaint shop in LaConner, Washington. It's still one of my favourites and one of the nicest dresses I've ever owned. You can take a look at this company's beautiful and very feminine dresses! They're a little pricey, but very well made - they will outlast your other dresses -- both in quality and style. You'll also find beautiful things for your home! I always look for these dresses when I go thrift-store shopping -- and especially for our girls -- the dresses are perfect and beautifully feminine.
I received this beautiful letter in our Guestbook from April Cornell.
Thank you for the lovely mention of my designs on your site. We are receiving some very nice referrals because of it, for which I am grateful. As many women have also experienced, my life has had some major transitions in the past few years. As I move into a new phase, I have chosen to remain very committed to my company and the designs we create so that I can provide support and funding to The Giving World Foundation. The first half of life was about building and raising a family. The fruits of those labors are that I can give back now. I appreciate the support your mention of our clothing is doing to help the less fortunate we are able to serve through the foundation."

Some of the prettiest and most reasonably priced clothing you'll find online. View modest women's dresses, skirts & dress clothes online or you can write for a catalogue to be sent to your home. This is not a private, Christian home-based company... but I recommend it for the modest dresses they offer. |

There are many wonderful magazines, websites and teachers who are so encouraging, but these are a couple of the magazines that I know of that continually encourage modest dress and godly womanhood.
Crowned With Silver and Keepers At Home
and another wonderful magazine An Encouraging Word

Male and female created HE them... genesis 1.27
The Bible describes it as abomination for a man to wear that which pertains to a woman... why would the opposite NOT be abomination to us?
even the world knows there's a difference. just look. →
universally, the signs for men and women... |
 |
And finally...
Man looks on the outward and God looks on the heart... shouldn't what man sees be a reflection
of what God is doing in the heart?

Because
I am a
born
again
Christian—a
Christ
follower,
I do not
post all
"modest
dress"
links
(and
obviously,
could
not
possibly
even
know
about
all that
are
available—good
or bad).
There
are
modest
clothing
and
beautiful
wedding
dress
sites
available
that I
do not
direct
link to
for the
sole
reason
that I
do not
knowingly
post
links
for
businesses
that are
not
Christian—with
a few
exceptions
(April
Cornell,
and
those
who sell
"pre-owned"
clothing).
There
are so
many
nice
looking,
well
stocked,
reasonably
priced
"modest
clothing"
&
wedding/prom/formal
wear
websites
on the
net that
are not
Christian—Bible
believing
Christian
owned/operated
even
though
they
*seem*
to be.
Below
are
sites I
am very
or
reasonably
certain
to be
reliable
Christian
businesses
serving
those
who seek
modest
and
reasonably
priced
clothing.
I take
very
seriously
bad
reports
on
businesses
and
contact
business
owners
when I
have an
unfavourable
report. |
