It's crazy though... there was this shift recently where I used to wear skirts cause I felt like I should and not feel guilty to I'd rather wear skirts and feel guilty wearing pants... total change! I love good, usable skirts. Just found a WHOLE bunch at the American Apparel store in Denver. All cotton, really comfy. I can put them over jeans if it is really cold or I can wear them with the most amazing leggins' I found at Forever 21.<br /><br />Don't you feel like modest clothes is like a seriously involved and intense scavenger hunt sometimes? :)Talia Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06912302090378738427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165783133716396471.post-20705297147503022642010-02-25T17:06:01.829-07:002010-02-25T17:06:01.829-07:00Hey.

Gi pants (like for martial arts) or scrubs pants are plenty modest, imo. What works and feels right for you is exactly that. But as long as you're into skirts, do you know about good camping clothes? You might want to put one of those undershirty things under this sort of dress, but the concept itself works: http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Columbia-Timeless-Travel-Dress-3-4-Sleeve-Womens/COL2275M.html I'm not related to the site or the company, I just know about good camping skirts. If I had comfy tights on underneath, skirts probably wouldn't bother me. I can totally relate to not throwing out one's pants. I've had the same pack of cigarettes around for years. Not that I was ever a big smoker, I just like having that option, even if it's in a drawer at home growing stale. Whatever works. :)s(b.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08633383652906692253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165783133716396471.post-25049071154048868192010-02-19T10:42:26.019-07:002010-02-19T10:42:26.019-07:00Thanks Lucy!

In Denver I live a more secular life but in CH I live a very observant life. Can slip into either without much issue... depends on the time of day and where I am... I know I should be better but I like both... :)Talia Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06912302090378738427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165783133716396471.post-40232012760417894332010-02-18T12:16:01.856-07:002010-02-18T12:16:01.856-07:00Once I finally made the switch to tzniut, it took ...Once I finally made the switch to tzniut, it took me five years before I was willing to take my last pair of jeans off the top shelf and send them to the Goodwill. It's not that I wore them. It was just the idea of it - that I could slip them on if I wanted and somehow touch that previous existence. I guess I just didn't need them anymore when the Torah-centered life became so rich and real for me.<br /><br />Your writing is great Talia.
