My younger sister, Noelle, wanted to do a guest post on the blog, and we planned out a modest fashion shoot.
Here is a Q and A with Noelle on modesty. (She is 9 years of age.)
Q: How would you define modesty?
Noelle: Modesty is when you wear clothing that isn't revealing.
Q: Do you think modesty should be a part of a Christian's life? Why or why not?
Noelle: Yes, because God says in the Bible to cover up.
Q: How can young ladies like you dress modestly, yet tastefully?
Noelle: They can wear colors they like, but have a modest cut to them. Also, scarves are very pretty and they help to conceal the chest.
Q: Who taught you to dress modestly?
Noelle: My mother and my older sister.
Q: How would you describe the way you personally dress in three words?
Noelle: Modest, colorful, and comfortable.
Q: Who do you look up to as role-models of modesty?
Noelle: Well, my family of course, but I also look up to my aunt, Ruth, and my cousin, Rachelle.
Q: What is your favorite Bible verse about modesty?
Noelle: 1 Timothy 2:9-10
...likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,but with what is proper for women who profess godliness — with good works.
Q: Any final advice for our readers?
Noelle: Try to dress modestly - it pleases God!
That's that for the Q and A!
It was actually drizzling quite a bit when we took these photos, so they were a tad rushed. Forgive the photography! I'm still learning, and I was trying not to get the lens wet.
About the outfit:
Shirt: Gift
Sweater: Gift (tag - Merona)
Skirt: Marshalls
Tights: Ukrainian market :)
Boots: Marshalls

I sincerely hope you enjoyed this type of post. I've never done a fashion one before!
Have a blessed Easter - Christ is risen, He is risen indeed!
