it hasn’t been *too* cold yet!)

So, we get to enjoy all of the fun fall festivities

But while we don’t have to bundle up,

We totally don’t want to look out of season!

So sit back,

relax,

and enjoy

Shoes and Modesty?

Mardi — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 05:00:57 +0000

Modesty in shoe wear should be considered. Just because a shoe is cute, doesn’t mean we should wear it, you could be sending the wrong signals! Let’s dive into a quick rundown of some shoe styles!

Tennis shoes:
I cannot think of anything immodest about tennis shoes.

Flip Flops/Sandals:
In some cultures feet were considered an intimate part of the body and should be covered up. Some colleges and professional companies still require a dress code that doesn’t allow flip flops, sandals, or opened toed shoes. Flip flops and sandals are cute, but not always appropriate.

They are cute to wear, but don’t wear them just to attract attention!

High Heels:
Rebekah, one of our readers suggested this topic, concerning high heels she said, “Wearing heels (not all, but lots) does make your chest stick out and your backside stick out. Also, to walk in them properly you must swing, and this men notice whether they are wanting to or not. These things do not help a girl exhibit an attitude of modesty.” She is right! Heels aren’t wrong to wear, some just send the wrong signal.

Rebekah gave me permission to use some thoughts she shared in an email:

“Modesty encompasses clothing issues, but is basically an attitude of life that shines through in what we wear. This attitude is one of humility, yet realization also that God made me special for His glory. I don’t have to flaunt what I have to gain importance in the eyes of others, but rather I should treat my body with respect and dignity. I am a special and unique creation of God, put together in every part to specific dimensions and particular qualities predetermined by a loving God. He sees my body as perfectly what He designed it to be, and views me as a member of His royal family. As royalty, I should dress as a daughter of the king…I should seek to flatter, not accentuate, to cover, not shrink wrap, make good statements, not offer sinful suggestions to the mind of a man, to adorn, not slop together, to dress as if I am always on call to approach the King of kings, or act as His ambassador. It is true that God seems my heart, but it is also just as true that man cannot see my heart, he judges by the outward appearance, and that is in about 3 seconds of time. If this is how we approach fashion, we can weed through many of the trashy themes out there which lower our thoughts to ideas of trying to ‘fix’ what is wrong with me, cover up my imperfections, or using my body to advertise in order to attract what we think we need in relationships.”

I look at shoes the way I look at clothing, if it draws to much attention, or I am wearing it to show off, it’s best to leave it in my closet!
Deciding what to wear doesn’t have to be difficult, seek God’s advice!

Is This Modest?

Erin: I think the skirt is a few inches too short, so I’m saying slightly immodest.

MInTheGap: The shirt is strange– long sleeves but you don’t put your arms in them? Or is that a cardigan she’s not wearing? I’m going mostly modest because of how much leg is shown, but it’s really close.

Anna Grace: And what is up with those shoes? Wow.
