White Shirt Black Sweater

Filed under Female

Photo by johnsmithapril031988 One modern style that is great for modesty is pictured at right.  The sweater over the shirt that is left not tucked in is a great look for two reasons: The sweater is nice and bulky with a dress shirt underneath and it also allows for good contrast. The shirt tails hanging [...]

Tie Back Cardigan

This tie-back cardigan looks comfortable, and is a nice color (though it comes in four different colors.  Some things I noticed: Button downs can be tricky, but the spacing here is small—meaning less gaping. Button down also allows for being more immodest in private—a plus for us husbands out here. The shirt seems to get [...]

Here’s an shirt with an interesting pattern from Cath Kidston—a native company of Great Britain with an online store in the United States. For modesty purposes, the shirt seems pretty modest—a high neckline and long sleeves makes it cover most of the skin. The only thing I can’t tell from this image is how long [...]

This shirt shows the perfect way to use layers.  Underneath, she has a white shirt that’s perfectly modest in its length. Over top, a very pretty pattern that she has left unbutton for air flow, or just to augment the under layer. On its own, the external shirt is modest… It has a great length, [...]

No, I’ve never worn a Pintuck Tunic—sorry! That being said, there are a lot of nice things to say about this one. I like the button-down look, for the aforementioned reason of the “dress for your husband” idea. The tie at the waist is a feminine look—as I’m sure you’ll rarely see a man wearing [...]

Roll Cuff Shirt

I can remember well my first shirt with a rolled cuff.  It was for my work at Ponderosa, and the ability to button up the sleeve came in very handy. First, it made it convenient when I was doing my job as a dishwasher—the sleeves never came down and got wet. Second, it looked stylish, [...]

Woven Ruffled Top

This is a lovely blouse with 3/4 sleeves and a high neckline. It does have some detailing around the neckline that could be a concern, but over all I would say it is definitely a modest cut. However, it is white, and there are inherent problems with white clothing. They tend to be very see-through, [...]
