Hey y’all! I hope you’re having a wonderful week! I woke up this morning with places to go and people to see, more laundry dirty than clean, and exactly 3.2 pounds heavier than I was yesterday. One of my biggest struggles lately has been how to dress with the weight fluctuations that healing from Lyme brings. The…
Autumn Turned Winter
Hey y’all! It’s now officially cold more days of the week than it is warm, so something cozy for church this morning was a must! Y’all remember my perfect dress from Autumn Trends | Day Two? Well, throw a cozy jumper sweater over it and voila– it’s winterized. This is a Ralph Lauren cable-knit sweater…
5 Fall Outfits I Blogged And Now Wonder WHY
Hey y’all! It has been a crazy crazy last couple weeks! I’ve really wanted to post some outfits, but my main photographer has had a nasty cold and I just couldn’t drag her out of bed to grab some shots…. and now I have the lovely bug and I’m considering doing a post on 5…
Autumn Trends | Day Three
Hey y’all! I hope you’re doing well! I’ve had a full day of visiting, cleaning, photoshooting, and then celebrating this evening! None of our clean laundry has been put away for what seems like a month, so today’s outfit is the simple outcome of things-I-can-actually-find. I also had to choose something in brown/denim/khaki for our…
Autumn Trends | Day Two
Hey y’all! I hope you’re having a wonderful day! Today for #AutumnTrendsBF I’m wearing a 1970’s inspired drop-waist dress that I made while testing out patterns for Camp Stitches. There are so many things I want to say about this dress. It encompasses so many aspects of that identity crisis I’ve been hinting at in…
Autumn Trends | Day One
Hey y’all! It’s been way too long since I’ve taken “real” outfit photos (and my iPhone remote broke, so that’s made even quick image grabs more complicated) and Ashley’s Autumn Trends Blog Event seemed the perfect excuse to get back in the habit! It is such a gorgeous day, so we spent a few extra…
Review | Mikarose
Happy day! I hope y’all have started your week off with some energy, joy, and goal setting! Mikarose was kind enough to send me their Ivy Dress in Eggplant to review. I recently realized that I love wearing dark purple because it works for so many seasons and occasions. This dress is well made, flattering,…
Active | What I Wore To Run A 5K
Hey y’all! I’ve never been the exercise-consistently type, but I do really enjoy feeling fit and like to keep in shape enough that I can do the tasks at hand. Living on a “farm”, I never know if I’m going to need to be able to run after a pig or a cow for a…
Cozy Comfort
Hey y’all! With the crazy leggings-are-pants trend, handily, has come a smorgasbord of cute, long shirts that help make jeans modest. I love to wear these on chilly but-need-to-get-stuff-done days. This tunic has so many details I love: Arms-length, flattering silhouette, sparkle threads, warmth, super soft, high neckline, and fitted shoulders. // tip of the…
Week In Feminine Dress // A Story
Hey y’all! A few weeks ago, I was contacted by an editor of LAF asking if I would be interested in participating in a Week In Feminine Dress with some friends on Ladies Against Feminism. I squealed! Really, I did. Why? Because WIFD is how Fresh Modesty came to be. You see, back when I…
Black Tunic + Brown Boots
Hey y’all! Three awesome companies are behind today’s outfit, so I’m excited to finally be sharing this. And by finally, I mean this post has been 3 days in production. This is not uncommon and today I’m finding it especially humorous how long it takes to do such a simple task among a life with…
