    Dang I never really thought to pray before I go shopping. That's a great idea.

    I used to dress immodestly too, because I didn't know better then, until the Lord revealed to me what dressing modestly really means. With HIS help I was able to put away wearing pants completely. All I wear now are dresses and skirts and I couldn't be happier. .God is so good! :D So blessed to come across a video on youtube of someone else who shares similar beliefs and views!

      @vonee.monique  11 років тому +6

      Aww yes!!! I'm so glad - it's amazing how even in the little things God is waiting for us to share with Him our thoughts and desires - especially when they ultimately glorify Him :-)

    TO GOD BE THE GLORY!! Wonderful info on buying modest apparel. I am plus size and find most of my dresses and skirts at Cato, praise God they seem to always have my size at a reasonable price. When it comes to dresses that are too short, I turn them into a top, and wear with a skirt, I also wear strapless dresses as skirts.

    You are a real encouragement for me. Thank you for sharing the desire the Lord has put into your heart on dressing to bring Him honor and glory. I pray you feel encouraged to continue strong in your ministry to other women. We need more women like you in our world. Blessings!
    Love,
    your sister in Christ

    When you shop second hand, don't be afraid to think outside the box and try different combinations. You can create one-of-a-kind outfits and it's fun!
    Last summer I went to and Eddie Bauer outlet because I needed a new spring coat. Lucky me! I found 2 modest skirts. One is is a maxi; the other is just below the knee. They're really cute, and easy to take care of, which is a plus.

    Let me first say, you are so beautiful! You and your relationship with God. I'm a modest teen who has a few problems trying to buy and arrange clothing. Your positivity has shown me that it doesn't matter how my clothes look. I cover my body for God, not for others, or to make a statement!

Keep up the good work! God Bless you!

    @cherylcoyote 10 років тому +1

    If you look for dress patterns from the 1980s you'll find lots of modest choices. High necks, long hemlines, looser, flowing long sleeves were all popular. Hems can be lowered to maxi length pretty easily. Although not every woman sews, most of us know someone who does. Just an idea!

    • @vonee.monique
      @vonee.monique  10 років тому

      Yes, that is so true! Thank you for sharing that! As a matter of fact, I just got a skirt, that after I take out the hemline and iron, it will be just the right length for me! Sewing is truly a good skill to pick up - even if just for the easier basics :)

  • @aerincreerREAL
    @aerincreerREAL 8 років тому +54

    I don't dress modestly at all, like at all. But I like because you're you, not preachy, and don't seem like you shame others and your personality is just overall sweet and so I watch that.

    • @vonee.monique
      @vonee.monique  8 років тому +14

    • @estherbusari7762
      @estherbusari7762 7 років тому +15

      You know, I find it good that you recognize it. But God gives new clothes and new heart when we turn to Him. He wants to have relationship with us. Therefore come to Him just as you are - and He can change not just the outward but first of all the inward. Because from out of the heart are the issues of life...

God provided for me my first time looking for skirts ♡ I too, went to the thrift store looking for a basic bluejean knee length skirt...and I found 3 beautiful skirts! One being the jean!! It was such encouragement in knowing I was headed in the right direction.
    Thanks for your video, Sister♡

    @hannahday223 8 років тому +24

    Hi, as a 14 year old girl I'm pushed to dress in a certain way by peer pressure. I'm a godly girl and my family and some friends always tell me I'm beautiful without makeup and in a skirt/dress. All the thrift stores around me have skirts that look like something a old lady would where. I'm just having trouble with finding youthful modest clothing in my area.

    • @VictoriaTerekhina
      @VictoriaTerekhina 8 років тому +11

      I used to think that there aren't anything both modest and beautiful in the area I live in but as I kept searching I've found some good places where I buy clothes now. Soo don't give up and keep searching! Check more stores around or a bit further or try to learn how to sew :) "Everyone who seeks, finds" Matthew 7:8

    @Olivia_Nicole1999 6 років тому

    I'll tell you a good tip :) I shop at goodwill on sundays . I know most people don't believe in doing anything on sundays . We are Pentecostal, in a small town we drive an hour away to 2 goodwill stores . I buy a lot of my clothing there . Especially maxi skirts , long sleeved shirts to go with and dresses . They also have home things . I know goodwill is expensive but in some cities I've been to on Sunday , they have a color of the week which is different tags they tag the clothing . Yesterday it was grey so it meant Sunday everything with a grey tag is 99 cents . I only shop there the days , they have 99 cent sales because they can be pretty expensive! But if you haven't checked it definitely check it out they always have good deals especially if you go once or twice a month it's good to find new things . They also sale things out of season .

  • @Olivia_Nicole1999
    @Olivia_Nicole1999 6 років тому

    Also sometimes I buy a tank top dress or shirts with decoration that are a little showy but I will layer something under it like a long sleeve or a tank top :)

  • @saintjoanna5996
    @saintjoanna5996 6 років тому

    I also really love the idea of praying before shopping. I have had so much trouble finding good clothes in my area... only one thrift shop and I have not found much modesty even there. I actually am looking at learning​ to sow. we don't have much means but I have a machine. our only other option is internet shopping, but I want to try things on before buying and avoid shipping. I am going to pray, that makes so much sense!

    Thank you for the lovely video! Besides my main source which is Salvation Army, I find beautiful, very modest clothes at DressBarn and Old Navy. Currently, Old Navy has a ton of camisoles in all sorts of colours. They have a lace trimming, making them feminine, and I turn they backwards so they are even more modest! ;) May Jesus bless you!!

    • @vonee.monique
      @vonee.monique  11 років тому

  • @melissamenchaca9121
    @melissamenchaca9121 10 років тому

    I'd also like to add that it can be invaluable to learn some basic sewing. For instance if you find a skirt you love and it happens to have a high slit you can add a panel in a different color and you have something unique, modest, and supper cute. If you find something in a thrift store that is too big you can learn to take it in. If you find a top for summer and don't want the added heat of a Cami you can sew a faux Cami right into the neck line.

    I do not know you personally but I like what you say about praying. About the words of Jesus: "Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." So I thought this means - God is the greatest designer - why not ask Him for some beautiful pieces of clothes?! :)

    Shalom. For those who wear scrubs, I work in surgery. Most scrub tops that I have come across only have a pocket at chest level. One on the inside and one on the outside. I have come to the conclusion that these are not made for girls (women). Being 5'1/2" now☹️, I got tired of the guys looking down on my 'lace'. I wear loose tops and putting my phone, pen and paper for notes make it hang down sometimes showing my bra from a taller person's view point. To remedy that I wear an undershirt backwards. That way nothing shows from my neck down. Plus I can match the undershirt with my scrub hat and look fashionable. It took a little getting used to, but now I'm uncomfortable without it. When JACO comes thru just put a pin to close the neckline or take another scrub top and turn it backwards. Blessings.

    You are so wise beyond your years!! Which means that you are very open to recieving and practicing the wisdom and discernment that our Lord gives to you. There is a growing movement of AP women making loads of UA-cam videos about modesty, but I have a problem with many of their videos. They're still showing off their "modest" outfits while wearing stillhetto heals in skirt lengths that brush the top of their calf, still showing off a very sexy leg look to the men around them. And buying their fashions all from popular brand name retailers. While the whole point of modesty is NOT to draw attention to yourself, these AP women seem to still be doing exactly that - drawing a great deal of attention to themselves and practically shouting "Look at ME. Look at how modest I am!". Defeats the whole purpose. I believe they are practicing more out of a culture they've simply grown up in, and not a genuine heart for the Lord, and true modesty of heart. You speak with tremendous maturity. 💕🤗 I have found a great many beautiful long skirts in thrift shops in excellent condition. No reason to HAVE to wear Forever 21 or Charlotte Russe to be in style. The AP women are also all about tremendouly high piled hair styles... all but ignoring the scripture they themselves quote: avoiding the braiding and adornment of the hair for glory. Instead, they frequently quote "the higher the hair, the closer to God". I know they say it jokingly, but with thousands of videos now about how to pile up your "crowning glory", they're still practically shouting "look at me!" YOU, sweet girl, have got a tactful, truly modest grip on reality and I just appreciate your humble approach SO much.❤❤❤

      +kara__kats not on an everyday basis! I only wear jeans (loose with a long tunic top) when riding a horse, or working on a roof (helped with a construction project) and looser tapered pants for exercising sometimes under a shorter skirt or as PJs - i also wear loose capris swimming! :)

    Hi thank you so much for sharing this video. The lord has just recently revealed to me about modesty and how women should dress so I am new to this and I need much help and prayer, not so much for the dress code but more so about makeup and jewelry. Please let me know our views about makeup and jewelry as I try to grow closer to the lord.

      Tiffany Coleman Hi!! I'm so sorry that I am just now seeing this! Praise God and I am praying for you! And yes, I plan to share a bit about that in the future! I will try to write you back asap! To sum up very shortly why I don't wear jewelry (and makeup (especially colorful) similarly for the same reasons, but there are also some different reasons) is the following. In these last days before Jesus comes to gather His faithful children, God is giving us time to be reunited with Him fully by faith, and when we accept, love and have true faith in Jesus, His righteousnes becomes ours...by beholding Him we become changes (2 Cor. 3:18)...God has called us to be holy even as He is holy...but only by the grace of God leading us to have an active faith that works by love, can we become sanctified. When we truly accept God's grace, we allow Him to make us new creatures. And to truly be Christ, self must die and Christ must live (Galatians 2:20)...self/selfishness is the root of all sin - it's the opposite of love - God's character! So as I am seeking for my selfishness/ "self" to die that I may be sanctified by God and fit for heavenly communion with Jesus and selfless angels, I don't want to fall into the same sin that Satan (then Lucifer) did. In Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14 we see that Lucifer fell because of His pride in His outward beauty! He was decked with jewels all over his breastplate! I am a weak sinner and I don't want to allow any small way to fall in a similar way as Satan did..I choose not to wear jewelry because I don't want to glorify myself or my personal beauty; I want self to die and Christ to live...I want Jesus to be seen in me and all I do, not pretty/glitzy jewels and extras...just sweet beautiful simplicity that helps to keep the mind on incorruptible heavenly things! There are many more biblical reasons as to why I don't wear jewelry and believe that God doesn't want us to, but I will try to make a more detailed video! I will also be sharing the info under the "beautiful naturally" section of the ministry website! I hope that helps a bit! God bless!
