Came across this on Pinterest, and thought I would share.

Weekly Outfit: Forever21
So, we decided that every week we will do an inspiration post, of where to shop and what to buy. Basically we will be posting items from a local store, and create a cute modest outfit. We will be posting it from the store website, but don't worry, it will be items that we have seen in the store's ourselves.
So we will start with Forever21 because this store is basically everywhere, in Canada and United States. Forever21 is known for having trendy clothing at affordable prices. (Affordable is definitively correct. Bought a top there on sale for $3.) Believe it or not, this store has been around since 1984, and it was first intended for middle aged women, but I don't think this is the case anymore. It's a great place to shop because they always have skirts, and pretty shirts. Pretty much they have everything.
Shopping Tip:
Make sure you go to forever21 with TIME! Shopping at there can sometimes be overwhelming because there is so much to look at. They stuff alot into one store. Don't get overwelmed, just take it, one section at a time. Most likely, you will find something. There is just too much in there, not too! So be patient and determined.
Outfit:
We first saw this skirt, and decided to make an outfit with it. It's a midi-length A-line skirt, which means it totally falls under the modesty category. It's dressy so this would be good for church. We paired it with a simple black shirt that has a "cowl neckline", so it doesn't dress down the skirt. Tuck the shirt in, and add this cute thick waist triangle belt to add some texture to this simple outfit. We also wanted to add pops of color with these burgundy pumps, and burgundy clutch.
Hair:
For this particular look, since it's pretty simple, you could pull of a messy hair style, or a curly one.

Guest Post: Lo's Closet
Hey Everyone,
Today we have a special guest. She blogs over at Lo's Closet. I will her let her introduce herself but before she does, I would like to encourage you to check her blog out. It's pretty awesome. We wouldn't mind having some of her clothing in our closets..
Let me introduce myself, my name is Lorena. I was born into a Pentecostal family...so all my life I have been told to dress modest. I have had my own downfalls, but at the age of 15 I started dressing more lady like. It was a huge change from tom-boy days (over-sized hoodies and sneakers). I grew to like dressing up for church more, but it was not until I was 17 or 18 that I started "officially" wearing high-heels for church. Now every weekend is a highlight because I get to dress up. (Yes! It's our favorite thing too)
Now dressing modestly is sometimes hard, its a struggle to finding skirts that are long enough AND not tight. So far I have managed and I'm really happy about it. I love God above all and I like to please Him.

Well it's very possible to wear those clothes for more than just warm weather. Today I will be giving some tips on how you can transition a summer/spring dress to fall.
Check it out. God Bless :)
These are more casual but still super cute.
