Modest Fashion

How to Dress Modestly, With Pride

by Mark Etinger

During a daily barrage of advertisements, our American culture favors scantily clad women. But when you're not riding a horse, or on a beach – basically in the real world of day to day interaction – you can't go around wearing booty shorts and spaghetti straps. That doesn't mean, however, that you can't feel confident as a woman. This article will give you tips on how to dress in women's trendy clothing while following modest fashion.

1. Neck: The neck is one of the more intimate areas of our bodies. The age old vampire mystique remains in our society, and women frequently go about showing off their neck and their cleavage. On the other hand, showing just a tad of neck can really define your fashion tenets. Refrain from wearing low cut blouses that display décolletage. Neck jewelry, like pearls, is classic and fashionable while conveying the fact that you are a classy, modest woman.

2. Legs: The key to showing leg is that if you are going to wear a skirt that comes above your knee, make sure that the rest of your body is covered appropriately. The easiest way to spot a trashy woman is by seeing skin on her lower body and her upper. If you are going to reveal your lower leg, make sure that your arms and neckline are modestly bedecked.

3. Arms: Showing your arms, especially in the summer when it's hot, is very tempting. And if you choose to wear a short sleeved shirt, do so with grace. Revealing your shoulders can be acceptable, but if you choose to do so, don't wear a low cut shirt.

4. Conversation: Unfortunately, with so much emphasis placed on a woman's body in our society, many women feel like their bodies are more important than their minds. This is untrue. To demonstrate your beauty, don't be afraid to offer your opinion on a subject. But keep in mind that a beautiful mind is more gorgeous than a pleasantly shaped body because it is more difficult to show – speaking aggressively or rudely is just as unattractive as dressing without modesty.

It is important to remember that dressing in modest fashion often sends a better message than wearing skimpy clothing. It leaves more to the imagination, and it sets you in a higher echelon of dignity and gentility. Moreover, it is important to recognize that with this sense of modesty, you should be proud. Your body is yours, and how you display it says a lot about who you are. Dressing in modest women's clothing is a way of making a statement – that you aren't easily influenced, and that you have respect for yourself.
