What stores do you shop for modest clothes?

You just spoke at our school and it was real good. I don't really struggle a whole lot with self image but thanks for the dressing tips it really helps to stay modest..I read the section on how guys are visual and it's so true. Thanks so much!

If you don't mind me asking what is your favorite store to shop at? Do you have any good suggestions on stores?

Thanks so much for writing! I'm glad that you are desiring to honor God with your body by your fashion/clothing choices. Modesty is definitely not easy in our culture, but it is possible. I still like to find fun or cute outfits, but sometimes it just takes me longer to find them now :)

Or I have to get a shirt one size bigger so it's not so tight, if you know what I mean. I want you to know that I prayed for you that God would continue to work in your life, helping you make wise choices.

I still like to shop at stores like Kohl's because they have such great deals! I have to look harder and sometimes get a size bigger in the shirt size, but am still able to find cute outfits.

And believe it or not, I enjoy shopping at second hand shops sometimes too.....consignment stores, Goodwill, etc. I can sometimes find clothes there that are fun and fit my personality but still modest. The outfit I wore at your school that day, I found at a second hand shop!

There is also a website called ModesTeen.com that you might want to check out. They have links to some online stores that they recommend.

If you have any tips or hints that you have found helpful, please share them on this website. I am always looking for teen writers for the website, so if you'd be interested in writing an article on modesty and the struggles you have as a teen girl, that would be great!

"I also pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your heart through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." (Eph 3:16-19)
