Some 60's

By: Olivia Howard on Tuesday, May 19, 2015
Hey y'all! I hope you are having a lovely day! Here's what I wore to church this past Lord's Day.

This dress arrived from ThredUP Saturday and I LOVE it. It fits me absolutely perfectly and I love the retro feel it has. 

I've been working 'round the clock on rewriting and expanding Creating Custom Swimwear...like majorly. I'm super excited for next week here on Fresh Modesty... not only do I have TWO swimwear company reviews to share (for those who don't sew) but I'll be relaunching the eBook that has helped hundreds create their own modest swimwear. Prepare for Swimsuit Week! 

That is, if I can find an extra 36 hours in this week. Soooo much happening right now. 

// outfit details //
Dress: ThredUP
Shoes: ThredUP
Scarf: no idea
Jewelry: Charming Charlie's

I have a friend arriving in a few hours from out of town, so I'm going to go clear the cardboard boxes off the front porch and sweep the kitchen. Y'all have an awesome day!

    Great dress, the color is really good on you! Do you have any tips for finding good dresses online? I always have trouble figuring out if something would be a good fit or style on me. Thanks! - Rachel

    Wow Olivia, so weird that you're talking about swim suits this week; I just started thinking about swimwear for the first time since last year this morning! I even went on etsy and searched modest swimwear, something I've never even thought to do before! Looking forward to this week, I'm in need of some good advice! Can't wait!
    Blessings!

    I love your dress! Going to a graduation after church on Sunday and need to choose something that will be comfy all day: I have found that the cut around the neck is one of my dress is not always great. Do u sometimes wear tanks with dresses? I tend to wear them under shirts but not so much with dresses because they look a lil weird.

    Hey Olivia! I wanted to thank you for being so open about headcovering. As a new coverer (is that even a word? :p ) it's super encouraging to see others following the same path. So, thanks again :) - Elise

    Love this dress! It looks great on you! This is something I totally would have just glossed over on ThredUp. I have such a hard time picking patterned clothes there because I just can't picture how they'll look on me, but you look beautiful! Hope you've been feeling well lately too. :)
