6 Types of Clothes which Promote Modesty for Christian Women

As from my previous post, Christian women are not bound by a set of rules on what to wear. However our choice should not stumble our fellow brothers and sisters (Romans 14) and by being modest, promote godliness (1 Tim 2).

1. Leggings
Leggings are very helpful especially in cooler climates as they help keep warm. Leggings can help cover your thighs and bum especially when your skirt or shorts are revealing a little too much. Most commonly found are plain black cotton leggings. However, for colder weather there are also polar fleece and wool leggings. For warmer weather, there are 1/2 or 3/4 length leggings to do the trick. To be more fancy, there are leather leggings, jeans and printed leggings. Remember leggings and stockings are very different! You are looking for a non-see through material here.


2. Cardigans
Cardigans can come in many forms and in my different materials. They also come in endless colour variations. Cardigans can come in long sleeves or short sleeves. They can come button up, a few buttons, no buttons or even zips. They also come in various shapes and thickness. Cardigans are most often worn over other clothes. Cardigans can help by covering bare backs or plunging cleavage. A grey, black or white cardigan would match with nearly anything in your wardrobe.


3.Kimono Jackets
Kimono jackets are quite a fashionable item this summer. This is normally a thinner material of polyester or silk. Kimono Jackets can help like cardigans to cover your back. Longer jackets can also help to cover your thighs and bum.


4. Scarves and Shawls
Scarves are amazingly versatile piece of accessory to have. There are nearly endless ways to style it. Wider scarves can be used like shawls to cover your plunging back-line. Also, it can be used to cover cleavage. On cold winter days, warm wool or fleece scarves can keep you very warm and snug. On warmer days, cotton, light polyester and silk scarves would be a good option.


5. Camisoles or Singlets
Camisoles or singlets can be worn under your blouse or dress and can potentially help hide your cleavage (provided you didn't buy a low cut one). In summer time, there are thin cotton/ polyester or Lycra ones to keep sweat off you. In winter, there are ribbed cotton, or even wool singlets to keep you warm.


6. Crop Top Bandeau
Crop Top Bandeau can be worn as a bra or over your bra to help hide your cleavage. This is a relatively in-expensive piece of clothing.

Hey guys! Just sharing a quick analogy about numbers and COVID-19 and why you should avoid the disease before I post my recipe of the day. Imagine you have a packet of M&Ms with 100 little chocolates in it. Now you're being told between 2-6 pieces in that packet has cyanide in it, and there are a few that will give you violent diahorrea what would you do?  1) Throw the whole packet away 2) Eat it cause I won't die from diahorrea 3) Eat it cause what's the risk of dying, it's just 2-6%?! 4) Eat it and share it with all your friends and family and even your doggy! Personally, the most logical answer for me is to throw the whole packet away. It's the same reason why I'm staying at home to help stop the spread of COVID-19. I guess it's really food for thought! That said, here's my recipe for today! I've had some leftover rice from last night and NO WAY, not wasting any rice as it's super hard to find rice out there. I've turn my lef...

The bullet journal is a "back-to-traditional" organisational tool. It has won many fans not only from those who like being organised with to-do lists, but also from many craft and stationary enthusiast. If you've not heard of bullet journalling (or bujo for short), it is a system using a combination of long term and short term to-do lists, coupled with calendars to keep organised. Variations include meal prep lists, shopping lists, goals, etc. Many craft lovers also use their bujos for variations of paper crafts (like scrapbooking) and calligraphy. There are a good variety of different types and styles of notebooks available on the market. One of the most common dilemmas most newbies to bullet journalling have is what type of notebook to use. It might seem quite trivial for those who have never stepped into the bullet journalling world, but in fact the different types of notebook are used quite differently. To pick your first bullet journal, I've tried to catego...
