With spring right around the corner, I find myself wishing for a few non-formal/non-winter dresses. I have plenty of nice clothes for summer, so I don’t need to run out and buy anything (besides, I love the thrill of thrift-store shopping anyway!). I am in the process of trying to find a dress to have on hand for business lunches and semi-formal dinners. Because of my husband’s job, I need to have a dress or two like that around…Rushing out to buy something at the last minute is rarely good for the budget! :-) In the process of looking around, there are a few dresses that have caught my eye.
One is the red Audrey dress from DiviineModestee. I love the fact that it has a high neckline, and is below the knee. Red and dark purple aren’t my favorite colors (nor are they very “springy”), but the dress itself is very feminine and modest at the same time.
The others are from MikaRose. These dresses are long enough to still cover the knees when sitting, and they have such feminine detailing. I especially love the button-front shirt dress…It can be dressed up or down and look very classic. The black dress with the cowl-neck would be nice to have for concerts, nice dinners, and yet would even work nice for a trip to the park.
I think they all have their lovely qualities, and if they were in your price range ($45-70), they would work as beautiful staples for your modest wardrobe!

I especially like the white dress. Too bad it’s no longer available. The button-front shirt dress is nice, too, though.
Today I saw that Diviine Modestee has some of their dresses on sale. I’m talking $29!! I’m hoping to buy one, because that is such a reasonable price and their dresses are SO cute! They have a polka dot one that’s caught my eye.
Would you buy through Is This Modest if we became a reseller or affiliate?
Certainly, if it’s helpful to y’all and IF I actually decide to buy it! The only thing I’m worried about is the fit and not being able to return it because of it being a clearance item. I need a little more time to think about it, but I’d really love to get it!
Just curious– I’ve been in dialog with companies like Diivine Modestee in the past about these types of things, but I’m not sure where I’d like to go, and wondered if people would actually buy through us.
Blessings on whatever you decided about that.
I have a question that I’m not sure where I should ask. Are comments in the forum counted in the comment counter?
I believe that the post stated on posts, not in the forum.
I can understand that. But I don’t think that the post specifically said “NOT in the forums” so I at least wanted to check! Thanks for the clarification.
Oh no! That is where I posted most of my comments! Just kidding. I’m glad you asked that Q Annegirl. I was thinking about that too. I was going to ask, but it looks like you beat me to it.
Yes, that’s good to know! Don’t want to be commenting where it doesn’t count. ;) Anyway, thanks for the good question, AnneGirl.
I always wish I had a reason to wear dresses like this. Most of the time I don’t though. Those are very pretty! :)

Abigail Joy´s last post ..Perfection
I just rated this one. I think the black dress is so cute. The girls hair looks good with the dress too.
