The Not So Staid Trench!

The Trench Need Not Be So Classic…….It Can Be Quite Fun!

The trench coat is a classic piece that can appeal to the more conservative but also to those who prefer being on the cusp of the next trend!  Where once the coats were made from a limited number of fabrics, they are now prevalent in everything from denim to satin! The colors can vary widely too!

Being godly women does not limit us in the realm of fashion.  In fact, unlike those who have shorter hair, we are afforded the opportunity of drastically changing our style on a whim!  Our clothes are no different.  I have often noticed women at work who settle into the mundane pattern of a sweater with their jeans.  The glory of modesty is, of course, pleasing God, but the fun of it is the imagination we must use in layering to achieve the right look.  The results are nothing short of fantastic!

Apparently, that opinion is shared.  Notice, secular women often mimic apostolic style for proms and weddings as well as job interviews!  Girls, we have nothing to be ashamed of!  There is truly beauty in holiness!

Don’t be afraid to experiment with bright colors, animal print, and, yes, by all means, please match!  The hodge-podge, unmatched layering of the grunge style only lends itself to being frumpy.  Take interest in the whole picture!  We have so much at our disposal: purses, shoes, hair ties, belts, layering camis!  It is better to have the reputation of being the one who “always looks so put together” than being the one who “has to wear a skirt!”
