Where (and how) to buy modest clothing

on August 10, 2012 by Jami Balmet 0 comments

During A Modest Heart series, we have taken a look at what Scripture has to say about Modesty, what a HEART of modesty really looks like, and  what modesty is {and isn’t}.

Now I want to get even more practical and share some great tips on buying modest clothing. Come back on Monday for tips on turning immodest clothing into modest clothing, how to find cheap (or free) modest clothing, and more!

Where to buy modest clothing

Where to Buy Modest Clothing

I hear this over and over again. A young lady is striving to dress modestly but just doesn’t know where to buy modest clothing. So she gives up and buys whatever is at the mall and in style. This is of course no excuse to not dress modestly, but it can be difficult and frustrating sometimes to find trendy, affordable and modest clothing! So here is a list of a few of my favorites!

1) Mikarose: Reinventing Modesty

Mikarose is a newer discovery of mine and I love their cute and feminine style. If you missed it, I have a giveaway going on right now for a $50 gift certificate to Mikarose! Hurry over and enter for your chance to win some cute and modest clothing!

I got to review their lace top, and I am in love! It is such high quality that I know it will last for years and is so cute!

2) Paulina Carmel Modest Clothing

I haven’t shopped from here before but their dresses are oh so cute!

3) Novae Clothing Modest Clothing

While some of their dresses are out of my normal everyday clothing budget, for a special occasion they would be perfect! Like this adorable polka dot dress. I need this right now!

 

4) ModBod Modest Clothing

I LOVE ModBod! I have several pieces of their layering clothing and I think they are the secret to my modest dressing 😉

The perfect tank is my favorite item. I wear it under shirts and it’s the perfect thing to wear under most dresses! I have it in white, black, pink, and brown. They do roadshows in Costco every year and I always stock up on my layering basics because their prices are fantastic when they do a Costco roadshow! See if there is one near you.

See that brown thank? Thanks to ModBod I can actually wear this shirt! {We took this when we found out I was pregnant :)}

5) Lime Ricki Swim Wear

For the past few years Lime Ricki has been my go to place to get bathing suits! Here are my sister’s and I all in Lime Ricki swimsuits 🙂 Unfortunately it seems that their latest line of bathing suits are not as modest and most are too low cut 🙁 My sister ordered one this year and it’s too low cut to wear.  But they do have some cute ones still and maybe next year will come back out with a more modest line!

6) Down East Basics Modest Clothing

This is a company that many are familiar with. I love their trendy styles and their sales!

7) Sierra Brooke Modest Clothing

A little pricey for me, but their dresses are just adorable!!

8) Shabby Apple Modest Clothing

Here is another favorite of many! I drool over their dresses since I can’t afford them but maybe one day I’ll get one as a gift 😉

9) Divinita Sole Swim Wear

I have not ordered from them yet because their bathing suits are a bit more expensive BUT I may just have to this year. They have some really cute designs!

10)  Jen Clothing

Jen Clothing has some really cute tops and dresses! I may need to do an order soon. {They also have some cute bathing suits!}

11) Apricot Apparel

I stumbled across this little website a few years ago. On a whim I decided to try their cami out and have been in love ever since! The cami is my best layering tool. I wear a cami under almost everything. It’s the perfect way to be able to wear nearly any shirt or dress that would normally be far too low cut. And the Apricot Apparel cami’s work better and are higher than any I have ever tried!

 See the white cami I wore when we announced the twin’s genders?

Do you have any modest clothing favorites? Pass them along!
