So who here is trying to wear dresses more? And why? I'd love to hear your stories!
I’ve always wore dresses and I plan on always.💖
Edit: I make my own dresses too
I love this!! Tip: I tie-knot my maxis! Works very good!!
I wear a lot of skirts but hope to expand
my wardrobe with some cute dresses soon. 😊❤️
I am a 66 year old. I love to wear skorts as soon as weather permits. It looks like a skirt from front and back but has thin shorts underneath!! Nice looking and super comfy
Dresses are sooo EASY and I have a difficult time wearing anything that constricts my abdomen so they work so well for that. Plus, I feel like it looks like you have your act together when you’re wearing a dress! You can’t lose. I just have a hard time staying warm in them and styling them with the proper shoes come winter time. Summer dresses are always the best
I’m Catholic and wear skirts and dresses exclusively. Love this video! It’s true, what we wear on the outside affects how we feel and act on the inside. Love feeling comfy and feminine.
Priceless
I agree!
I’m Catholic too and also wear skirts and dresses exclusively! It is so edifying to see other women dressing modestly. Now I’m working on detaching myself from old low cut clothes that I used to wear. Reading the book Dressing with Dignity is really helping.
@@adrianakellogg4493 that was a great book!
Me too
I've been wearing dresses more, especially in the summer. They are SO MUCH COOLER. They do instantly elevate your look so easily with no effort whatsoever.
I threw a cute stretchy black mini skirt with layers of flounce over my bathing suit for more modesty at the beach, and boy did I get some smiles.
And so much more comfy in all other ways! No riding up, cinching the waist (at least in the styles I get), bunching you-know-where, etc.
@@Sisterlisk 💐 Hurrah! Sounds absolutely adorable! Such a simple & practical solution too. ⛱ Would be utterly chaming beach or deck side.
😉 Wouldn't ordinarily wear a mini-skirt, but even one that short length could cleverly add a modesty panel.
🤗 Been wearing black bike shorts under a matching 1-pc, but that alone doesn't offer enough protection for my sensibilities. So started wearing a longer black sleeveless V-neck peplum top over both for swimming in the 🏊♀️pool around guests. It's effective, but not exactly normal gear for most ppl. Do like the added 🌞 sun shield too.

I started to wear more dress and skirts, but more dresses than skirts, in the past 18 months (in my spiritual search to live a life more pleasing to God in all areas of our lives.) Actually, I started earlier then that, but only to the store or on a date, because I felt uncomfortable being more dressed up than most. I soon learned that I love being more dressed up and I love the feminine look and feeling of looking my best when wearing a dress. My husband loves it too, and that really was what sealed the deal for me...he made a point to give me compliments and his approval. I learned that I was treated with more respect and kinder by strangers, even when I was out with the kids. I love the midi length of dress because I can do my everyday activities without concern of exposing myself. I also learned last year when we were locked down with stay home orders that putting on that dress instantly helped to lift my spirits, because I knew I looked good...even if it was just a blue jean dress or T-shirt dress....I looked better that I would in a pair of blue jeans and T-shirt...It has become important to know I that look presentable at any given time. I live in MN where it gets to be -30 with nasty wind chills to go with it in the winter times. I've learned that with a long skirt or maxi dress, I can wear leggings under it to stay warm while running errands, but enjoy the extra length around the house during winter for warmth. The main reason I began to do this was to please my husband, who has always told me that he loves me in a dress, and also because I have loved dresses since I was a girl and still do. I also do a little sewing of my own dresses, but sew almost all of my daughters' dresses.
Priceless. Long dresses and skirts as a lifestyle showcase the masterpiece ladies were created to be. I am sure your husband feels blessed. I see ladies that wear long dresses and skirts as color against a black and white background of immodest women.
Im in MN too. I also wear leggings under dresses and skirts. I dont wear them as pants. I treat them as underclothes. Im trying to build up my winter skirts and dresses.
@@Diniecita awesome, shine on sister.
At a local church where the women wore mostly dresses, I have seen some short, skin-tight dresses that were definitely immodest. A nice pair of trousers with a well- fitted jacket (or tunic) that covers the hips and rear can certainly be more modest then some dresses I’ve seen today. But then, I am trying to wear dresses more often as I feel they look more feminine!
Problem is the younger generation doesn't know that slips are supposed to be worn under dresses.
I am a Traditional Catholic who started wearing dresses and skirts 9 years ago. It takes getting used to at first, but now It makes me feel and act more feminine and I can’t imagine wearing pants or shorts. We nice to portray a feminine image to all!
I've been wearing dresses and skirts exclusively for about a year now. I feel so feminine and honestly a lot more confident in my body! I love feeling more ladylike. It also makes me aware of how I portray myself to the world...it makes me want to act more classy and sophisticated even when it's a casual dress or skirt 😄 TIP: Walmart has had AMAZING dresses recently...truly! I've come to love them more than Target!
I'm not Mennonite, but YES, dresses are classy and feminine and I love them too!!
I'm apostolic! Ever since I felt convicted to wear dresses and skirts full time, I have felt so much more confident and beautiful. I love the modesty and femininity I feel when wearing my dresses
I just joined the apostolic church and am having trouble getting used to wearing skirts/dresses. Do you have any tips?
Totally agree - dresses and skirts are one of the best ways to looked pulled together. Sitting at a desk all day, a comfy dress is the way to go.
I love this! Actually a modest dressing RUclipsr! I feel in this age of gender confusion, it’s so important to emphasize that yes, I’m a woman without showing it all. I personally like pencil skirts and tops classic colors. Easy to mix and match.
ur the only one confused
@@scorpionic-night nope, not even a little.
Since I started making my own clothes, I almost exclusively wear dresses. Modesty aside, they’re just so much prettier and more comfortable!
This video is such perfect timing for me! I am 56 and have been struggling the past 6 years or so to find pants that actually fit me in a flattering way, and I just decided I don't have to battle this! I can just wear dresses! I am not normally a dress wearer, so I really appreciate all your tips and tricks! I'm excited to redesign my small wardrobe and style! Love your videos!
I needed this! I have been feeling convicted to wear more modest clothing for a while but have been worried about what others think. I’ve been too worried about what my friends and family will think instead of worrying about showing honor to my husband and God through my clothing. Thank you for this!
I’m a teenage Christian who recently just felt the calling from God to avoid wearing genes/pants. Your not alone. ❤ Blessings!
I went full dresses and skirts about a year ago after some deep thinking and discovering your videos.
I've been doing some deep thinking too after watching Megan for awhile. Like something inside of me is calling for this change.
The older I get, the more I love dresses. They are very comfortable! I always wear capri or regular leggings under them and I feel like I am going to work as comfortable as I would be in sweats...but am so put together.
We q
Yes, leggings can be key! At least in autumn/winter..
Thank you so much for actually showing us something to wear that doesn't show the world all your stuff lol as a Christian woman I truly appreciate your videos.
Hi Megan! I came across your videos and absolutely love them 💕 I grew up in a Christian home but had some issues in my teen years where I fell away and then God brought me through and brought me back - at that point I didn’t have slot of skirts anymore but had a grandmother who could sew and she was able to take my jeans and sew them into denim pencil skirts ! One of my sweetest moments in my reconciliation with Christ and my walk with God . 💕 thought you may this interesting lol
Loved this video. I watched it with my girls. We do wear dresses/skirts only, but it’s so encouraging to hear someone point out the good side of it because they are bombarded with the bad side of it.
I love denim skirts & skirts in general mostly in *A-line* . It's flattering on every bodytype. Not to tight, but not bulky either, just perfect!
And a tipp for the perfect skirt-/dress- *length* : Always let it end on a narrow part of the leg. So the whole leg will look more slim & sleek..
The red is my favorite. I love the ruching and the length. I like dresses because they are one piece…an easy instant outfit.
I’ve been shopping for more dresses and skirts to teach in just because they are easy and comfortable. I’ve really been wondering why I don’t wear them more often. Thanks for the tips!
Yay thanks Megan, dresses and skirts every day! For all the curvy ladies in here that are afraid of chafing: wear a light cotton Capri leggings under your dress or skirt , life saver I have a lot of them , hope it helps :)
Where do you get them? I just found some undershorts at target the other day that are pretty nice!
@@sarahsheartshome I'm from France so I don't really know if you could find the exact same, but any leggings will do honestly (h&m, shein, ASOS sell them) I've cut some of my old leggings into capris too, it doesn't fray since it's knit fabric :)
Long bike shorts are the way to go to avoid chaffing.
Hello Im not religious, I just prefer to dress more modestly and I really like your style videos!
We all have different motives I guess. P.S. love your name!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked. Sorry to say, but your description link for dresses or tops you show in the videos, never work! You almost never show the same pretty "quality" dresses/tops in different links. It's very frustrating
I just think dressing modestly is so much more classy and elegant, but mostly I love skirts and dresses for comfort.
I love your advice about wearing dresses for the first time. I am a super girly girl at heart and think dresses are so classy and beautiful, but I never wear them! I’ve been wanting to for a while but am just not used to it and sometimes feel weird or insecure about it. But I am inspired to give it a try!
I highly recommend knit dresses, they are the most comfortable. I wear long-sleeved, warmer ones in winter and cool fabrics lime cotton or viscose in summer. H&M has nice, reasonably-priced ones. I often size up for a hody-skimming, not -clinging fit, and/or. choose those with fuller skirts.
12:05 this is one of the reasons why I switched over to dresses and skirts full time 😊 It’s so easy and simple
I wear dresses all the time! My Mom wore dresses her whole life! I just feel so comfortable in dresses! They are cooler than pants for summer.
Okay Megan, I love that you are not condescending on women who do not wear dresses and skirts on the daily! There are so many "modest" bloggers who are extra condescending. I'm a Believer in The Lord too and it would be impossible for me to wear dresses and skirts daily as a Physical Therapy student. The material would get in the way! I love your approach and your authenticity
Thank you for these tips! I’m a fluffy girl so finding the right style/cut can be difficult but I love wearing dresses. When I’m doing outdoor activities I tend to add a pair of thin bike shorts for modesty and have found those are super helpful when doing things like gardening. Love your channel!
I wore dresses and skirts exclusively growing then went years avoiding them. I started wearing dresses several years ago when I joined something called Dressember...it is a fashion challenge to wear a dress every day in December as a way to raise funds to fight against human trafficking and modern day slavery. Now I love them. Cool & comfortable in summer & an easy way to feel put together!
My whole childhood I went to very informal, Evangelical churches and more often than not, people wore jeans and tshirts instead of “dress clothes”. Fast forward, my husband and I are Anglican (our worship services are very similar to Catholic, but we’re protestant, we have no pope, and our priests marry haha) and I wear a head-covering to church. One of the things I love most about wearing my head-covering is just how feminine it feels! While there’s no rule in my church against wearing jeans or casual clothes, I’ve only worn skirts and dresses since I started veiling. Something about it just naturally makes me want to wear feminine clothes!
I still wear jeans and shorts during the week, but I’ve found I’m really comfortable in dresses. Maybe I should start wearing them outside of church, too! Btw, I LOVE that blue linen-y dress!
you should give it a try -- find a casual, loose fitting one and you may be surprised how much cooler it is in the summer weather -- and like she mentioned, much easier to wear -- just pop it over your head and you are done! Less work than pants/shorts and a top!
Since clothes don't have a gender they ar not feminine or masculine. The person can be those things not the clothing. Clothing is fabric.
@@MsSarah999 Sure, fabric alone isn’t intrinsically feminine or masculine, but certain articles of clothing are traditionally worn by either males or females. There may no longer be societal stigmas against men wearing dresses, but up until very, very recently, dresses were for women only. I’m not throwing stones at anyone. People can wear what they want to wear. But my point was that wearing dresses makes me feel feminine, so I like wearing them.
@@maryduggins I can't believe you had to explain that to someone lol
@@MsSarah999 while fabric doesn't have a gender, I have yet to hear anyone (male or female) say that wearing a dress makes them feel masculine :-)
As a plus size lady my favorite hack is to wear floor length dresses with either biker shorts or Capri "yoga" pants and I also wear long sleeve dresses that I can roll up into a 3/4 length sleeve that is very flattering for me.
I decided to wear dresses to work a couple of years ago and I just accumulated some favorites over the years. Now I can't imagine going to work in pants, I just feel like uncomfortable and less business like in pants now. I love my dresses and how easy and comfortable they are to wear! Great tips in this video for beginners!!
That’s exactly what I have been doing!!!
I was once 240 lb. As my weight dropped, I found dresses are more flexible. Now i love that i can pull a dress out of my closet and thats it, no need to match this shirt with that skirt..lol...Simple is good.
I've been sewing dresses like crazy lately. I've found a great pattern to accommodate my apple shape...a shift dress. I'm changing it up with different hems, sleeve lengths, pockets and trims. If it's a solid color fabric, I add something here or there to break up the belly area and have begun adding a few darts in the back for shaping while still having room in the front. Anyway....dresses can be much more forgiving than skirts or pants when you don't have much of a waist.
Over the past 10 years or so, I have gradually worn more and more skirts, skirts and dresses. It just is so much more comfortable especially in hot weather. There are so many casual dresses to choose from that you can throw on and go! I even managed to make patterns from a few of my favorites that fit really well and have sewn more. It can be done!
Good idea 👌
That red dress is BEAUTIFUL!
Love that red dress on you! Doesn't it feel so good when stepping out of your comfort zone turns out so gorgeous!
Yes it does! And it's so funny when Josh actually has an opinion about my outfits. It rarely happens. He's usually just like "well you look GOOD." but then can't say why!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked yes and when your husband says it looks really good or he likes it you have to pay special attention! It's so interesting to see ourselves how they see us.
I started wearing dresses about 4 years ago. When I had a foot injury and it was just not easy to wear pants.
I tend to go more towards dresses now then in the past.
Would you be willing to do a tutorial on how to sit in dresses?
I love a good dress. It makes me feel like I can quick go and that’s it.
Thank you for those ideas.
Praying over your pregnancy and your 2 littles. As well as your marriage.
What do you mean how to sit in a dress? There is a proper way to sit??
Hope you're well:
How to sit, stand...

This is a RUclips video on deportement on how to sit when wearing a 👗, etc.
Jamila Musayeva channel is awesome!
Take care 🌸
You’re so much fun. I feel like Mennonites are some of the happiest people I’ve ever seen.
Oh Megan the carhartt shirt with the skirt was adorable on you
I love long jean skirts!! So versatile and comfy!
I love all the outfits. You are really good at putting outfits together. I wear dresses and skirts also. My husband laughs at me when i go hiking in a skirt. I always tell him that you wouldn’t believe what you can do in a skirt lol. I also wear a swim skirt too. That might make a cool video to show how you can still be modest when you swim. I know my husband really appreciates that I dress modest
I grew up wearing only dresses as well, except for a few jobs where it would be dangerous to be in a skirt as it could get caught in the machinery, and I have continued as I got older and with my daughters as well. I agree that they are more comfortable and feminine, and I think that as men's clothing in today's world is mainly pants and shirt one can assume that when the Bible says not to wear men's clothing women should be in modest dresses and skirts so even if I didn't enjoy wearing them as much as I do I hope it would still choose to do so!
I love these videos! Always great ideas on incorporating more dresses into everyday dress.
I personally like wearing pants, but I've definitely been moving toward more modest clothing. I've been finding myself gravitating toward culottes with a tunic shirt/dress. I get the security of pants while still wearing a comfy dress.
Also recently found a great alternative to pants were "chub rub" leggings so I could wear my dresses without worrying about wind or if the dress was too see-through - and adding slips and camisoles. Historical sewing has me loving all the underpinnings and underwear that we used to wear 😅
Growing up with all the super tight-fitting cropped clothes of the 2000s and 2010s, it took me a little while to release why I enjoyed wearing my medieval re-enactment clothes more - I was more covered and wasn't trying to impress anyone. I also always wore a coife or veil because I was re-enacting 12th century Northumbria, so it would be strange not to as a grown woman 🤷🏼♀️
I have felt God tugging on my heart when it comes to the way I dress for a few years now. I never really stuck to it, until now. Now, I am trying to dress more modestly. I have actually never felt better when it comes to clothes now.
I swear you get prettier when pregnant ! You are fabulous , always . ❤️
Thank you for pointing out that there are times when pants are an acceptable modest choice for certain situations. The Lord moved my heart towards almost exclusively wearing skirts and dresses. However, I still own 1 pair of capris and 2 or 3 pairs of jeans. They are my absolute backups if I need them for something, or if I’m just at home doing projects and want to save my skirts for when I’ll be out of the house.
I really enjoyed how you explained why you wear dresses and skirts. Only this summer I've started wearing dresses the majority of the time and feel very feminine and fashionable
in the summer, it is usually more cooler wearing a dress as well!
You look beautiful in dresses and your dresses are lovely! You really have dresses for many occasions! I really enjoyed your fashion show!
Wearing dresses in front of my family has been something I have yet to do. I was a total tom boy growing up, I hated lace and pink and ruffles...and now I'm trying to wear dresses every day.
I looove sewing dresses! I recently found my absolute favorite pattern for a tshirt like dress that flares out a bit more on the sides. I feel like a princess when I wear it, albeit a casual princess! :)
would love to know what pattern you use.
I’ve always thought about finding a pattern that I love and having it done in many different prints. The cost of paying a seamstress
Was a bit overwhelming. I can sew a bit but never thought about trying to do my own. 🤦🏼♀️
It’s the Nora dress from Made for Mermaids. I did have to lengthen the pattern by two inches to get it to my preferred length, but love how comfortable and flowy it is! Connie, it’s SO very simple to sew up and the tutorial is full of pictures and verrrry easy to follow! I bet you could do it!
I wear dresses almost always, and otherwise skirts. My people (I work in disabled care) LOVE it. And I feel so comfortable… especially in hot or cold weather, just handmde, cotton dresses with pretty (and forgiving!) prints! 🥰
Being the best dressed person in the room doesn’t sound very modest, though, lol!🙈
Using the restroom is so much faster, too.
Love that you have a cute budgie! 💕Your profile pic is so wholesome. 🙂
@@eily_b aww, thank you so much! This was 2 years ago when we ‘babysat’ that cute bird from friends of ours. I think it is the first time someone said something about it! Thanks!
True. Jersey won't fray/unravel after cutting! It's such a great feature/characteristic, it has helped me many times!
I love wearing skirts and dresses! I grew up wearing them and have done everything from wearing them for everday and special occasions to hunting, fishing, hauling wood and everything in between.
One of my best tips for wearing them and staying modest, is to always wear a pair of bike shorts or cut-off cotton leggings underneath. Also a good slip is a must for those beautiful skirt and dresses that are just a liiittle too clingy.
I am glad to see to see your review on Thred Up! I've been thinking about trying it!😊
God bless you and your little family!🥰
I've personally never used the bike shorts method, but I know many of my friends love that tip!
I love wearing some bike shorts under my skirts! My thighs chafe so badly if it's even the slightest bit warm outside!
@@amieparham7657
Yes!🙌 They are great for preventing that problem! I live in Oklahoma, so it is hot and so humid here the majority of the year... which means lots of sticky, sweaty days... so, I find myself regularly saying, "Thank God for bike shorts!" 🙌😂
@Jeanette Boynton
My most recent purchase, was just some cotton/spandex leggings from Walmart, that I cut off right above the knee.
So far, I'm liking them a lot!
@Jeanette Boynton and not only high wasted lol. Im convinced I need to just make my own
As always great video! Love how you can interchange just a few pieces to make multiple outfits work! It’s great to find people still trying to be Modest as the Bible teaches. God bless you and your family! God is good!
Skirts from snoga are my fav for a skirt girl tshirt & leggings look! lol the closest thing I can get to that!
I agree.. Dresses are so comfortable! Great tips Megan.. You look great in all your outfits. So pretty. Thanks for sharing.
I used to wear dresses and skirts a lot. As a little girl, I loved them most. As a teen, I was teased but wore them often anyway. I am craving them now. I only have one (and a half.) I made a jersey knit that I need to get cut even and maybe hem, depends if it curls. I wear my one skirt every Sunday. The challenge is finding nice skirts in plus sizes. I have a bunch of fabric and way too many projects that I haven't gotten to making skirts.
I love dresses. I do not wear them exclusively, but definitely about 9 out of 10 days at a time. Not a huge fan of skirts though. I thought this video was informative and helpful. 😊
I am an ex-apostolic trying to get back into church and I love dresses and skirts. Ladies look so much better in skirts in my opinion. You are so beautiful.
Nice video! Very practical. I'm trying ro be more feminine with the way I dress, thanks for the tips.😊🤩
How adorable I love the tops with the skirt, the baby bump, so adorable
I always wear a dress to church , never pants (unless it's -20 or something crazy cuz I live in MN) but since I've had 8 kids it takes a certain style to help hide the belly and most casual dresses don't work for me. I can wear a tight slip on Sundays to hold things in but don't want to do that all the time if I'm trying to be comfortable. Skirts with a good waistband are better but I have a hard time matching tops as far as fabric and style goes. Dresses are definitely better that way like you said you don't have to match anything.
Another person in MN. Huh.
I'm not religious at all but just prefer dresses. They're comfortable and look nice I think. And I've been using thredup for a few years now, I really like them
I love long skirts and dresses and if they’re flowy…sign me up! You have the cutest bump!I cannot wait to meet the “bump”! Thank you for another great video!
jean skirts are the best! on campus I always feel like the best dressed student
I started wearing dresses years ago., when we started homeschooling. My tip for moms to wear dresses is to wear longer dresses so you can pick up your kids or play on the floor with them and your are still modest.
I started wearing dresses more this summer after listening to Jennifer Scott about dressing better every day. I have a minimal wardrobe which includes 4 dresses I wear when I am not at work. I work in the fire service so I wear a uniform that is very manly all day long. It's nice to feel like a beautiful woman when I'm at home! *** For my build, tall with long arms, I wear Prana dresses and I know they will always fit perfectly.
Just wanted to say you can tie the bottom of maxi dresses if the length is bothering you too! That's great of you want to show off some cute sandals too!!
Love the red dress and the floral one you are wearing. I am all for wearing something like a vest top underneath bcos the necklines are far too low and I also don't like my upper chest getting cold! But may I make a suggestion - don't wear so much black, especially on your top half. Try to look for coloured vest tops to wear under your dresses. Xx
Wow I'm so happy to find someone who wears dresses and skirts!! Most youtubers go for denim. I never wear trousers. More often than not I'm the only lady on the staff wearing a dress. Love it!! So much more practical and elegant. Thank you for a lovely video!!
The *blue* dress and the white one with the *roses/flowers* look stunning on you! They match your *eyes* & *skintones* perfectly!! ♡☆
I love your floral top with the black tank on the bottom. 🥰 GOD Bless You, Megan!
Great tip about not getting too many special occasion dresses! I've found that to be true recently. Some times I force myself to just wear my fancy-ish dresses for church, but I grab my basic stripes over and over.
I've been wearing dresses every day for years. Everyone always comments on how dressed up I look. It's funny to me because wearing dresses is SO EASY!! It is just 1 clothing item. They're Adlai easy to layer for seasons- they're automatically breezy and light for summer. For cooler seasons, wear Leggings underneath and a sweater on top. For sleeveless dresses, I always wear crop tops or short knotted shirts over the top vs wearing a half tee underneath (I just like the look better). Another easy outfit is stretchy high waisted knit skirts with the same short tops (like how you showed here). These are my go-tos and are so much more comfy than jeans are!! I recommend every mom try it out.
Tip: old navy has some great midi and maxi skirts and dresses lately and they're very inexpensive on sale.
I really love your black floral dress!! I am 57 and was feeling led to wear skirts a couple years ago. I wanted to dress more modest and please God. I hadn't worn a dress or skirts in years! I recently had an umbilical hernia and it got painful to wear jeans and button up pants, so last fall I got some skirts with elastic waist. They are SO comfortable!! I'm still getting used to this, most women at work wear jeans, but I've had some compliments. I love the tiered midi skirts and pleated skirts. They swirl and twirl. 😄 Now I am seeking some comfy dresses to add to my wardrobe. I've seen your sewing videos, now I want to make my own . This week the doctor prescribed me to wear compression stockings for a few months, my leg veins are bulging and not pumping enough blood. These stockings are not fashionable. So I'm self conscience about that too.
Thanks for a fun video!
Over the past year, I have accumulated a lot more dresses and skirts for my wardrobe. I love wearing them! I instantly feel so put together and pretty and feminine. Amazon, ThredUp, and thrift stores are my go-tos for finding pieces to add to my wardrobe.
Absolutely LOVE your style Megan!!!! So glad you made this video, it’s super helpful!
My summer wardrobe needs updating and with half the summer left (our summer weather extends into October), I am looking into replacing shorts with skirts. We have a wind problem here but with some light weight shorts under any dress solves the problem.
When I started wearing casual dresses to college I did get a few questions from my best friend about who I was dressing up for. I love that skirts/dresses automatically make you look nicer, I told her I was "dressed up" for myself lol. I also want to start sewing some of my own clothes but haven't made the time yet.
I'm 65 and have been through the gamut of fashion. I really think dresses are much more comfortable and classy at the same time. Thanks for this video!
THE RED!!! It is BEAUTIFUL on you!!! This is your color!!
I decided I wanted to have a simple easy to wear wardrobe that I felt good in everyday. So I chose to buy seven dresses in the same style and in only two different colors as my daily uniform. Next I would like three really pretty dresses for going out. Certainly makes life easy and I just add a different scarf, or necklace to give a slightly different feel each day. I have never been happier than I am now with my wardrobe.
It's so cool how you had the baby bump and the word Sunshine above it....like your baby is a ray of sunshine. :)
Purchased my first Thredup order! Thank for the discount code. I haven't bought any clothes for the past year and a half due to covid and conserving money. Excited to get my order for such a cheap price.
I'm an atheist, born and raised as one and not modest but these tips still helped. Tried to incorporate a few more dresses into my style and I prefer stuff that isn't to tight fitting.
I love your dresses! Especially the white with black stripes...
I colour block my dresses too, so like usually I'm a jeans and short kind of gal, but when I wear a dress I colour block, t-shirt dresses are super easy to wear.
I wear mostly dresses, or skirts with tops, for comfort, mostly in knit fabrics, but not tight. I’ve never been a fan of trousers, they don’t fit right, won’t stay up or are super-tight, and are stiff and rough, especially jeans. I’m mature now, so I’ve decided to stop buying jeans, they just never work out for me, I hate tight or thick, bunchy things around my middle. I can move comfortably in dresses all day long. I got some good, long-sleeve, knit midi dresses from H&M last year, they’re great with tall socks at home, and boots over to go out. I have several basic colors and styles and change them up with cardigans, blazers, jewelry and scarves.
Yes!! Wearing dresses for errands is so much fun! You totally feel more out together :)
Megan, you look absolutely fabulous in all these outfits!!!! ❤
Love wearing dresses!! I’d also recommend if you’re new to dresses, pick up a few pairs of biker shorts to wear underneath!
If a dress is form fitting, it is not modest no matter how long or how much skin it covers.
Good thing modesty is a relative term and your opinion matters not a wit :)
Daisy B, I agree 🙋
We have feminine figures it’s ok. We aren’t supposed to look like men. Boxy and shapeless.
I wear shift dresses every day as I like to cover up my tummy, crutch and bottom areas , they are worn with leggings or skinny jeans underneath them, I also wear pinafore dresses with tee shirts underneath them so I can wear the pinafore dress more than one day, to cut down on washing. I have 25 dresses all made by me and all worn as I love all of them, the pinafore dresses are made of denim, and some are cotton for the summer, and I have some good ones for good when I go out. I like making my own dresses as I can choose the fabric and colour that I like, I found it hard to find what I want in the clothing shops. ,I love watching your videos, thank you for sharing !
KNEE LENGTH AT LEAST IS MY GO TO
I’m wearing dresses more because I have a prolapse and leggings and dresses are really comfy and easy on the pelvic floor. In the summer I wear stretchy comfy bike shorts under my dresses and skirts.
I wear dress/skirt most of the time. I like to wear trousers from time to time (and sometimes I need to wear PPE at work) but it's either very colorful dungarees or vintagy-loose trousers (think Marlene Dietrich/30's "beach's pyjama". I sew most of my "vintage" skirt.
I only wear under the knee skirt/dress because I am tall and with short skirt I look like I'm 17 years old X).
Have always worn skirts/dresses to church all my life (I’m 57). I’ve worn skirts & slacks to work. Not only because I’m a pastor’s wife, but I’m much more comfortable in a skirt and top to go anywhere. Megan, you look beautiful in everything you wear. God bless!
Hi, would you consider doing a video on wearing dresses in colder climates. I live in Northern Ontario and wear dresses exclusively in the milder weather. I'd love to extend their wear to other seasons. Oh if you clean in a dress aprons are your friend.
I live in Northern Ontario too ... SSM. LOL I was trying to figure that out too.
