Sustainable Fashion and Beauty Tips For Women

If you are looking for effortless church outfits to wear this season, one of the most important dressing code is to consider comfort and conform to the standards of your church community or at church groups meeting inside or outside. Since church outfits are particular for many and to ensure that you're dressing appropriately, I've rounded up 3 unique ways for you to wear to a church gathering. Scroll on to get your outfits inspo ahead. Then, shop some of your favorite staples this season!
Keep in mind that many churches still require women to wear conservative, so avoid backless or sleeveless dresses, tank tops, mini shorts or skirts that will expose lots of your skin. Better choose modest clothing that is 100% church- appropriate, here are some examples for reference:

Look1: Maxi Dress + Simple Accessories 

Wear the linen maxi dress always feels fresh, elegant and even add extra comfort for your church group activities. Besides, linen outfits have no age limit, they look good on everyone. You can style it with some simple accessories to get an element of surprise.

Shop The Dress

Look 2: Blouse+ Pencil Skirt 

Tuck your blouse into a pencil skirt to make it church-appropriate. Choose the pumps or flats to enhance the formal vibe.

Shop the Blouse

Do not wear sheer or transparent clothes and never show cleavage. Think about the dark hues or thick fabrics. In this spring season, I suggest you can try high-waisted pants with a long sleeve blouse, giving us a veritable semi-formal look for going to work or to the church.

When you don't know what to do with church outfits, the elegant church suits are all you really need. A suit is made of two pieces of clothing often either a jacket and pants or a jacket and a skirt. Both categories are helpful to get a powerful and confident vibe. A suit is quite suitable for being a church staple, you can complete the look by trying a pair of heels.

Shop the Sets

Look 1: Checkered suit 

The traditional pattern is really classic and also more edgy with cool striped patterning which is a range of England style wear for women at life group church. I personally like to wear a pair of pointed-toe heels for a very cool confidence.

Look 2: Solid color suit

You can pursue go with a plain sweater or t-shirt to match with the solid-colored blazers and tuck it into the pants to get a gorgeous look.

Plus, you can wear a watch, which I find works well with this look and add a feminine touch.

But if you are a matching expert, honestly I don't think you necessarily have to wear the same fabric together to get a full suit feel. Actually, you can also get a flattering and impressive look by wearing the structured blazer with skinny trousers/jeans/ a midi skirt in different colors, you can really mix up the two styles, but please make sure to coordinate your colors with both outfits. Here are some examples:

Look 1: Jeans+ Blazer

Look 2: Pants+ Blazer

Look 3: Skirt+ Blazer

In the finish, as for the "forbidden clothes" the report said that "male Catholics are discouraged from wearing caps, basketball jerseys, tank tops or jersey shorts and shorts, while women are urged not to wear spaghetti-strap tops or tank tops, short skirts, skimpy shorts or sleeveless shirts with plunging necklines when they go to mass."

Modest fashion, also called modest dressing, generally refers to a fashion trend in women of wearing less skin-revealing clothes based on their spiritual and religious faith or their own personal preference. Usually, the modest clothes have long sleeves, higher necklines, loose-fitting cut, and maxi length, which provide coverage and don't flaunt a woman's body.

Although "modest fashion" varies across cultures, countries, and religions, it still caters to those people who like comfortable dressing, loose-fitting clothes, and covered looks.

There are 4 important reasons for boosting this fashion trend worldwide. Firstly, the young generation has a need with all respects to religious precepts, yet they pursue more fashionable options.

Secondly, more and more Muslim designers pay attention to make a balance between fashion and tradition and they also establish their online stores to sell their products worldwide.


Thirdly, a growing number of modest fashion influencers and Muslim women are sharing their stunning modest looks on social media, especially on Instagram, Facebook, which doubles the global impact and boost the market share.

Last but not least, more fashion brands have also launched modest fashion lines to respond to their customer's demands, making an effort to gain an even larger share of the market.

As a fashion writer, every day, I will spend hours scrolling through hundreds of images of influencers on Instagram, analyzing their styles and dress collocations. To help you all look fabulous on your modest dressing, here are some fashion looks that you can steal from these following fashion bloggers.

Loose dresses are really comfortable and easy to wear. These multi-functional clothes give you a choice of length, waist, hem and other staples, so you can create many styles from a simple dress. However, those loose silhouettes tend to hide your natural curves and even look frugal. How to make your loose dress look good? Here are three amazing main tips on different aspects.

A. For all the tall women: the combination of loose short dress and pants, such as baggy jeans, tights, leggings or casual slacks is a great way to expand your closet choices, balance your loose dress and take your style into a new level.

B. For the petite women: the loose knee-length dresses would be your go-to option because bare legs can visually make you look taller. Paring with wedges or heels naturally trim your legs and also add an extra height as well.

C. For the young: decide the types according to your own styles. If you want to look understated and minimalist, the solid color loose dress would fit you well.

While if you want a bolder look—you might look good on bright hues, contrasting colors, plaids, printing that can attract attention easily.

D. For the old: with more and more senior women prioritizing comfort and simpleness, a linen dress is a truly appropriate alternative for them to wear day and night and also a versatile and environmentally-friendly staple that is nice to your skin.
A. The built-in belt: since the dress comes with a tie-around waist belt, you don't need to spend time in finding other accessories to match your outfits, and the design does a fabulous job with highlighting and lifting your waistline, balancing the ratio of your upper body and lower body, lengthening your leg lines as well.

Tips: You can wear a loose linen dress to get the ultra-comfort and minimalist vibe at the same time.

B. Try another belted variation: instead of a basic built-in belt, there is another similar variation along with a front-tied detail, which looks like two ribbons around the waist. You can tie together to create a bow knot to add an extra embellishment in just a single step. This creative style breaks the monotony but still retains elegance and femininity!

C. Loose overall dress: featuring the casual vibe, style this piece combo with common outfits, like a plain t-shirt/shirt, a knitting sweater, etc and go for some statement accessories to get the endless styling possibilities.

A. Add some accessories: for example, team your loose dress with a statement bag, a pair of big earrings, a straw hat depending on the occasions and the season. In fact, you are opening yourself up to many creativity.

B. Selections of shoes: actually, the loose dress can go well with any kind of shoes. Heels would maximize your feminine charms; sneakers would create a laid-back effect; sandals or flip flops are good for summer/ beachy look and the boots can help you become the cool girl/ women in the block. The tricky tips opt for the appropriate shoes according to the occasions and your needs.

Wool and down are regarded as the most popular winter fabrics, but are they really warm enough in bitter temperatures? Today I will dive into this topic from 5 aspects to give you the detailed answers.

They both effectively slow down the exchange speed between the body heat and cold air— forming an air layer on the clothes that is not easily convected, which can naturally keep you warm.

Washing Tips of Common Fabrics

A. Wool can retain its shape well after washing and it also repels moisture away from your body. In addition, wool fiber is quite adsorbent since it can absorb up to 30% moisture from perspiration. It's fire-resistant, dirt-resistant and odor-resistant as well, providing an excellent safety precaution and making it easy to keep clean.

B. Down is a sustainable, eco-friendly, and allergy-friendly material, which can also provide continuous warmth and comfort because of its natural ability.

A. The low-quality wool outfits composed of other synthetic fibers, like polyester, spandex, acrylic may be itchy to our skin. Plus, it will cost more money and time to clean the woolens as they need dry cleaning.

B. Down is expensive and almost 95% down coats need to be hand washed. It may probably lose its insulating power if it gets wet and take much time to be fully dried and get back to its original shape.

What is the clo value? According to Wikipedia, the CLO Value is a term used in evaluating and comparing the thermal insulation of clothing. CLO value is the amount of insulation that allows a person at rest to maintain thermal equilibrium in an environment at 2at 21°C (70°F) in a normally ventilated room (0.1 m/s air movement).

The definition od clo value on Wiki

Simply speaking, it's the metric to which clothing keeps people warm. And the clo value of different common fabrics is shown below:
( The thinner the fiber, the slower the air velocity, and the higher the clo-value)

Although wool / down has been used to make winter clothes for a thousand years, you still need more than a single layer of wool/ down to add more warmth. For the freezing days, you can try on the turtleneck sweater with heavy wool or cashmere and layer a thick wool coat to keep you toasty warm.

Or opt for a warmer coat that filled with down to give you sufficiently warm, either.
