Embracing Modesty, No. 22

This week we’re going to look at some of the quirkiness that goes on around here.  My teen girls like to experiment with their clothing and as long as they stay within the boundaries we have set for being modest I say go for it!  My motto: If you’re quirky and you know it clap your hands! {CLAP!} {CLAP!}

Patience likes to occasionally mix unexpected pieces together.  Like this skirt and top…they aren’t really the same style, but she tied it all together with a belt that she wears above her waist and a pair of plaid tennis shoes.  That green t-shirt is such a precious touch of color.

Most of their jewelry comes from their etsy shop, Little Women Sisters.  This adorable vintage key necklace is one of my favorites.  I love that they have their own shop.  It gives them a place to create and express themselves and make a little money.

Faith, my fashionista, likes to shake it up too. This grunge style top paired with a floral scarf is so her!  Not-so-perfect-yet-perfect.

She is also wearing one of the necklaces from Little Women Sisters!  They love these key necklaces (and so do I!).  But they have lots of other darling things in their shop.  I may just buy some of it for myself!

Now hang onto your hat for this next one.  I am not lying when I tell you that this is how the girls look about 1/3 of the time.  They come out in the morning in some crazy concoction of cuteness and whimsy and it just melts my quirky mamma’s heart.

They popped the lenses out of a pair of thrift store glasses and they wear them all of the time.  Her hair…well don’t ask me but I love the crazy librarian look so I like it!  That pink flower finishes it all off with a pow.

There you go.  It is possible to be a crazy, fun, modest teenager.  My girls play with their outfits every day.  Not all of their creations are a success, but as they get older they get better and better at it.  I will tell them sometimes why a combination works or doesn’t, to help them learn how to create these darling outfits.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out our Embracing Modesty Gallery to keep up with our whole year of modest outfits!
