Today I'm going to give you some modest fashion inspiration.

Hello and welcome to my channel. If you are new here, my name is Abby and I would love if you
00:00:11.220
would consider subscribing and hitting that notification bell. Today's video is just going
00:00:15.360
to be me sharing some of my favorite modest fashion looks. I love putting together modest
00:00:20.080
fashion. Now I want to be clear, I am a mom, I am a stay-at-home mom, so how often do I get to wear
00:00:25.180
these things? Not very often. Most of the time I'm in somewhat comfortable clothing that's still
00:00:30.640
fashionable to me but isn't just leggings and a t-shirt. But I don't really get to wear a ton of
00:00:35.680
fancy dressy outfits except for on Sabbath. But in any case, I love fashion, I love clothes, I love
00:00:42.260
dressing modestly, and I want to share with you four looks that I came up with for today's video
00:00:46.460
that I hope can give you guys a little bit of inspiration. And a couple of these things are
00:00:50.260
available on Amazon if you want to check them out. So I'm really excited to get into today's video.
00:00:54.340
I'm speed talking because my son is napping and I need to go wake him up. So let's just get right
00:00:59.020
into it. Outfit number one is this really comfortable, great look for running errands,
00:01:04.460
for playing with your kiddos. I love this look. So it's very classic. It's a pair of high-rise Levi's
00:01:10.220
jeans and a button-down shirt with blue and white stripes. Now it's not your typical shirt with blue
00:01:15.460
and white stripes because the stripes are actually thicker and the fabric is not as structured. So it's
00:01:20.640
really comfortable. It really gives off this kind of preppy but casual look, which I really like.
00:01:26.320
And I paired them with these slip-on Sperry's that I wear all the time. They're just so easy to put
00:01:32.380
on, but they're super comfortable and they're easy to walk around in. I love this whole look because
00:01:36.660
it is so comfortable and easy, but it doesn't look messy. It doesn't look like you just threw on
00:01:41.580
something and you haven't even taken a shower. Like, it looks like something you could actually wear
00:01:46.080
and also look nice. I think a pair of high-waisted jeans with a blousey top like this is also really
00:01:50.860
important because it helps define your midsection. And if you're wearing a pair of low-rise jeans with
00:01:55.380
something blousey, it can work, but I don't think it's as ideal. I'm much more a fan of something
00:02:00.480
that's high-waisted that cinches in at your waist. Now this works for me playing with my kids all day.
00:02:05.640
It also works for me for breastfeeding because it's a button-down. Also it's a top and a pair of pants,
00:02:09.380
so I could theoretically just pull it up if I needed. And it's just a great outfit. It's super simple,
00:02:14.460
super easy. You can find a pair of jeans from your closet, a pair of comfortable shoes. You could
00:02:19.620
wear this with just a pair of sneakers and any button-down would really work. Outfit number two
00:02:24.460
is this skirt top combo. I actually got this skirt from a set on Amazon and I love the set, but I
00:02:31.800
wanted to try something a little bit different today. So you could definitely go on Amazon and
00:02:35.520
just wear the set as it is. I do that all the time. I love it. It's super flattering. It's got cinched
00:02:40.140
and ruching at the waist. It's really a beautiful set, but I just thought it'd be fun to
00:02:44.420
mix it up. And I paired it with this kind of cropped knit sweater and it's sleeveless,
00:02:50.260
but it goes really well. I don't wear sleeveless, so it goes really well with something that has
00:02:53.600
sleeves. And I like the balance here of volume. Normally I don't recommend wearing a blousier,
00:03:01.500
flowier skirt with a top that isn't fitted, but because this top is actually see-through when you
00:03:07.760
turn to the side, you can see your shape underneath without you actually having to wear something tight.
00:03:13.480
So I really like that look. I also like the look of something that is a little bit blousier on top
00:03:19.480
and cropped and something that is fitted at the waist, but then blouses out. So it's actually very
00:03:24.900
flattering, especially if you don't have as big of a chest as I do. If you have a smaller chest,
00:03:29.800
this would be so beautiful on you. But even on someone who has a bigger chest like me, this works
00:03:35.340
because the top is sheer. So if you can find a skirt that is kind of almost fitted on top just
00:03:40.480
because of the fabric, because of the knit fabric, and then swooshes and flows out, and then pair it
00:03:45.880
with something that's cropped and blousy, that'll be exactly what you're looking for. I also paired
00:03:51.000
this look with a really comfortable pair of sandals. I love these sandals. They don't really take away
00:03:55.480
anything from the outfit. They're not really drawing attention, but the white is just a little pop of
00:03:59.860
something different, which I like. And they're just really comfortable and easy. Outfit number three
00:04:04.860
is something I would wear on like a girl's night. Now the reason I say girl's night rather than date night
00:04:10.500
is that for me, my husband always loves when I wear a dress. So I don't really wear pants when I go out to dinner with him.
00:04:15.800
So this is something I would wear if I wanted to like look fancy for my girlfriends and have them think my outfit was cool.
00:04:22.020
So I've got these really comfortable pair of pants from Target. Now they are a little bit short for these heels.
00:04:27.620
I recognize that, but I'm okay with it. And I paired them with these tie strappy sandals, which I am obsessed with.
00:04:34.100
I love these sandals. They're my favorites. So I put these on with these pants, a more fitted top, and a jean jacket.
00:04:40.800
So this is great for getting drinks with your friends and feeling pretty, feeling put together.
00:04:45.600
And I just think that this is such a special kind of unique look because people don't really wear pants that aren't just jeans
00:04:50.340
or aren't just black. So wearing a pair of pants that has a wide leg and stripes down them is just a little different.
00:04:56.660
Pair with some neutral basics like the jean jacket, the blue top, and the strappy black sandals is just perfect.
00:05:03.380
That allows the pants to be the stars of the show.
00:05:05.860
Okay, our last look for today is a sundress. And it is the season of sundresses.
00:05:10.720
Everyone knows that a sundress is just the perfect thing to wear in summertime.
00:05:15.220
I love this sundress. I got it in two colors. I got it on Amazon. It's got sleeves. It's long.
00:05:21.340
And it's not very low cut. And the fabric is beautiful. It's lined.
00:05:24.560
The waist hits a little bit high, but if you wear it with a belt, you can't even notice.
00:05:28.480
I just think this is such a beautiful dress. I love the different colors that it comes in.
00:05:32.800
It wasn't super expensive. And I just recommend it.
00:05:36.280
And it fits in with my modest vision of what a sundress can look like.
00:05:40.100
I paired it with a pair of brown-heeled sandals. And it's just pretty.
00:05:46.600
Actually, when I wore this dress in the other print, my husband kept telling me all day how pretty I looked.
00:05:50.900
So that is a big win. If you have a summer dress that you feel good in, throw that on.
00:05:56.120
Put on some comfortable heeled sandals and a little belt, and you will feel awesome.
00:05:59.980
