Personal Shopper: Plus Size Shabbos Robe

Where can i find a plus sized Shabbos robe? A maxi dress will do. (not winter. something cotton or poly for all-year-round)


"Shop Your Closet" contest winner

  


Here's our contest winner, modeling the outfit she won in our "Shop your Closet" contest.  She looks familiar, doesn't she? 

Okay, it's not really Mayam Bialik (although she's at least as cute), but she doesn't want to be on the internet - this is a blog about modesty, after all - and those blurred out faces give me the creeps.  


Thank you to everybody who entered.  We will be running another contest soon.

Your Favorite Styles Made Modest!

How many times have you walked into a store, spotted a dress (or skirt, or top...) you really liked and thought, "If only it were 3 inches longer with a higher neckline and longer sleeves"?  Now you can get the clothes you admire with custom details and sizes!  All items are available in standard sizes 0 to 26W (yes, nice clothing for plus size women, too!), as well as custom sizing with options for neckline, sleeve length and skirt length. 

Here is a small sampling of what is available.  All of these dresses have options for 3/4 sleeves and below-the-knee length skirts, and some have options for long sleeves, calf-length skirts and various necklines:

Runway- Our Way

I know that these words should never be written in a fashion blog, but I quite often dislike the clothing that the designers create for the runways.  There I said it.  I know it's "art" and they're pushing boundaries and being creative, but it's too avant-garde for my taste.


But the Spring 2012 collection by Burberry is different.  Not only are there numerous modest or potentially modest outfits, but many of them are really gorgeous and actually wearable by real people living real lives!  Here is a sampling:

Does it really matter how we dress?



I've been thinking about how to explain the theme of this new blog section, but luckily I found a magazine article that is worth at least a thousand words. 

Dana Kellin Jewelry

I just wanted to share this gorgeous, inexpensive jewelry collection from renowned designer Dana Kellin's collaborating with Target.  She combines delicate metalwork and gems to make stunning earrings and necklaces.

Silky Skirts and Tops

Years ago, clothing made of a silky synthetic fabric was very popular.  I really liked them and now mine are all worn out.  I'd like to get more, but I don't see them in the stores anymore.  Is there an online source for them?  ~kdb

Wearing a scarf

I love the look of scarves.  People who wear them seem to automatically look elegant and well dressed.  One of my fashion resolutions is to learn how to tie a scarf in a way that I don't look like I'm suffering from strep throat.  I came across this video that seems to be the answer:
