Modesty
Something I still find jarring about Utah, but must seem completely normal to folks here, is the modesty dress.
I'm not talking the cute stylish outfits of Mormon mommy bloggers - I'd wear those (actually, some of my style is pretty close to that...) or the FLDS prairie dress - but the women I see who take something that is immodest (a spaghetti strap tank top, a skirt above the knees) and just put something on under it (a plain white t-shirt, jeans). I just wonder - why buy that immodest thing to begin with? I was at the store you bought that top from the other day and it had some super cute cap sleeve shirts that would look better on you!
On the other hand, I suppose I feel like they do when they see someone dressing "immodestly."
In related news, I have![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
loreofcure to thank for the tip on Joe Fresh jeans for a cheap option for the brightly colored jeans fad. See, this outfit is modest! And cute! And apparently I'm a size 4 :)
