This LOVELY lady just informed me that I won her Ugg Boot give-a-way!  

I am stoked.  Please follow her blog.  She is adorable and has the coolest style.

I love clothes.. that should come as no surprise to most of you.

But why is it so hard to find cute/normal modest clothing?

Even hemlines at my beloved H&M have risen ridiculously in the past couple years.  There was a time where I would leave that store with dozens of dresses and skirts.  I've been about 6 times this summer, and not a single dress purchased.  I weep.

I have mentioned Eliza Magazine before.  I really like their approach of showcasing modest fashions ranging from the runway to affordable online stores.  They post the CUTEST things.  It is very refreshing.

I've found a few more websites & blogs that advocate modest fashion in a non-prudy way... hope you enjoy them!

ANTHROPOLOGIE (ie, online shopping guilty-pleasure extravaganza),

I am in love with this store in general.  The dresses, sweaters, jackets, duvet covers, pillows, hardware, wallpaper, couches, blah blah blah...

Today I discovered the spring swim suit line.  Prices range from (yikes) $168-278, but they are WORTH IT!. 

Timeless silhouettes, quality product...  Here are some of my favorites:

half tees

BEST.IDEA.EVER.

These are way better than those dumb bodysuits from Down East/Shade.

I want one several.
