Philippians 4:5 - “Let your moderation be known unto all men, the Lord is at hand.” I'm sure we have all heard this verse before, usually in terms of not spending too much money, or eating too much, stuff like that. Moderation should also be practiced in clothing, as well. We as apostolics should not be known for our loud, flamboyant, “look at me!” clothing. Instead, our clothing should cause people to look to the Lord. We should be dressing in a nice, clean manner that associates us with God's people. With this as a background, I offer some suggestions:
Hats. Girls, hats are super cute! Some pastors preach that women should wear hats, so hats are not simply fashion statements for those ladies. However, for the people who are wearing hats simply because the hat is cute or something, here are some suggestions: If going to church – don't wear the big hats! They are extremely hard on the people sitting behind you; hard to see around, and hard to ignore! So go small for church! Save the big ones for special occasions (banquets, symphonies, etc). Also, stay away from hats that you don't want messed up – you never know what kinda service it's gonna be, and you don't want your hat to inhibit you in your worship! Plus, preachers may accidentally knock the hat to a funny angle when laying hands on you to pray! I was at a conference in the last few months, and was having a hard time seeing past some lady's gigantic hat!
Since conference styles are on my mind, what is with the hairstyles I have seen lately?? I think most of them are cute, or unique at least. But these do's that have strands of hair sticking straight out make no sense to me! Do these girls want us to think they haven't looked in a mirror?? Doesn't make sense to me...
Tryin not to be too negative here.
Saw some really cute outfits in the past few months! Goodness, there is a young lady that I have seen at a couple conferences that has such cute clothes! She must sew, or maybe her mother does – her clothes are so unique and adorable! I think she's going for the 40's type style – A-line dresses with detail, detail, detail! Big flowers or bows attached to the dress – so cute! Wish I had gotten a picture of some of her clothes! Like I have mentioned in past posts, the vintage look is in right now, so if you have the sewing skillage, get your Singer out and start that thing singing! Thrift stores are a great place to find vintage clothing you can personalize, or even finding patterns from eons ago. The hairstyles right now are really complementary to vintage clothes, and you could even wear a cute little hat on top that hairdo with that cute little dress! Man! I wish I could make a Singer sing!
Am I the only one that is totally loving paisley on guys right now?? Especially black with white paisley, but any complementary colors look awesome! There's just something sophisticated/dignified about paisley... I don't know what it is... I need to do some more guy-related posts, since I haven't really gotten into that much, but then I figure not many guys are reading my blog, so it wouldn't matter anyway :)
I think this was a long enough post – I'm tryin to post like once a week, but we'll see how that goes! :) Until next time!
