The Social Porcupine

Hey, everyone! I hope you are having a fantastic week. Modesty . It's one of those tricky (stupid, it often seems) things. To dress or not to dress? ( Or how much should I "over dress"? ) I've seen a lot of different opinions on this. Mostly it seems that the issue of modesty is over stressed. -Not saying "Modesty is in my heart, not how I dress" illogical stupidness.- I'm saying that dressing "holy", like Amish or "modest trash" isn't the solution either.

Skirt: I made it - to order one like it, email me at keturahskorner(@) gmail(dot) com Pink button-up: thrift White tank: Wal-Mart Necklace: my dad found it in one of his salvage cars :b Sandals: Earth Spirit And since a friend and I just had trouble following blogs, I'll share how we finally managed to do it. :b When clicking on the "Join This Site" bar it told me that my request couldn't be fulfilled.
