Week in Feminine Dress - Day 1

All week, from the 19th-26th, several young ladies from the Rebelution Forum, including myself are taking part in a "Week in Feminine Dress". What that means, is all week long we wear skirts or dresses, (Some wear jeans & add accessories to make it more feminine) & we focus on being young ladies.

This week, we are having a themed WIFD! We are focusing on Titus 2:4-5.

“Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children,

to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind,

and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will

malign the word of God.” ( Titus 2:4-5)

Today we were focusing on Purity.

Day 1:

Theme: Pure

Dress: Wear lighter shades, pastels etc.

Actions: Walk gently. Remember, “a lady never runs, she hastens”.

Every day there is a specific theme, and an action to do to help us to remember that we are young ladies, & need to act accordingly.

Below is the "list" I guess you could say, on what we will do each day.

Day 2:

Theme: Self-controlled

Dress: Wear all one color

Actions: Watch your tongue! “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” (Ephesians 4:29)

Day 3:

Theme: Busy at home

Dress: Put on an apron!

Actions: Do one of your sibling’s chores!

Day 4:

Theme: Kind

Dress: Twirly skirt day!

Actions: Give two people an extra smile (even if you don’t know them) and try skipping!

Day 5:

Theme: Submit to your fathers (as we don’t have husbands =D)

Dress: "Have someone else pick your clothes"

Actions: Tell you father that you love him and make a point to honor him today.

Day 6:

Theme: Respect God’s word

Dress: Dress in a period costume OR Wear a new combination

Actions: Spend an extra few minutes in devotions this morning, tell someone a bible story!

Day 7:

Theme: Study God’s word and find your own theme for today – share it with us!

Dress: Take your picture outside OR with a pet (or a sibling!)

Actions: Try to avoid sitting cross-legged all day today. Do something fun with someone and tell them about WIFD.

I'm looking forward to the whole week! If you would like to follow along, & see what other young ladies will be wearing during their Week in Feminine Dress, you can visit the blog, Week in Feminine Dress.

Below is my post for WIFD:

Today was a lovely day after the two whole days of thunderstorms! It was nice & sunny!

Today I wore my sisters floor length flow-y floral skirt w/ my pink top w/ a pink satin ribbon tied on the top left of the shirt.(My arm is covering it in the pic) I also wore some gold colored high heels, w/ a criss-cross strap design. (They were 2-3 inches tall.. I know! CRAZY!! lol! But I'm short & they were the only light colored shoes I own. All the rest are black.)

I forgot to put any jewelry on today, but I did twist my hair into a bun w/ twists on the sides that wrapped underneath the bun. Since I usually get cold in church, I brought along my cream colored denim jacket to stay warm!

I look forward to the rest of the week & hope to be able to blog all week!

(Sorry about the mess in the room. We're in the middle of getting a huge sewing mess put away ;) lol!)
