Ladies, I have added a new modesty resource to my sidebar, but I’m so excited about it that I thought I’d give them a little extra “press” here as well. The site is called Modest at Heart Clothing, and is one of the home businesses of the Appel family, a homeschooling family with five children. They sell new and gently used modest clothes at GREAT prices (like WholesomeWear swim suits for around fifteen dollars!). They have a wide variety of clothes for the whole family, everything from mainstream styles with good coverage to cape dresses, even a few headcoverings. I just ordered some maternity and nursing clothes from them, and they arrived quickly and were in beautiful condition. I highly recommend checking them out–and no, I’m not getting anything for mentioning them!

Hey, that’s a neat thing! Thanks for being a godly influence on my daughter, Joanna. It’s all the more reason for you to come and visit–meeting the Jo! She’s all over this Reformation Faire thing. I’m pretty sure we are going, and she got all the info from your links and reads.
She is just maturing leaps and bounds (ahead of her mother, but who’s counting?), and I’m so proud of her for making good choices in things.
Now we have to leave for the fabric store to get going on the COSTUMES!!

And thank you for being a godly influence on me!
Oh, it would be so lovely to come visit. I would love to meet the Jo! I’m starting to feel very pregnant, though, so if you felt like it, you could make it a matter for prayer.

Thank you so much for the link!!! I actually just placed an order a few minutes ago. They had a pair of black mary janes in a size 12! Hard to find!! The headcoverings are very inexpensive, too!
Thanks again!

Hey, cheer up, little pregnant one. I will pray for you. I linked you up as one of my “favs” in the I love your blog post. Someone (out of no-where) linked me–go figure. I’m sure they’ll love it here.

I’ve really enjoyed reading some of the articles on your site, I especially enjoyed what you wrote on headcoverings and modesty. Wanted to give you another source for modest clothing… Not sure how you might feel about the fact that they’re a muslim company, but http://www.shukronline.com makes beautiful, modest clothing that is feminine, and also very contemporary, which is what I love most about it. They’re expensive, but the clothes last for a long time and you can often get great deals when the clothing goes on sale. Anyway, just thought I’d mention them.

Rina,
Thanks for the link! They do indeed I have beautiful stuff. I like their nice, long skirts. I don’t usually add a link to my “recommended” list until I’ve actually bought something from a company, so I know what their customer service is like, etc., but I will keep them in my for the next time I need new clothes.
