Feminine Farmgirl Challenge~Day One & Two

Hello all! I joined Jenna at Feminine Farmgirl and Feelin Feminine  for the April challenge. . .the challenge of dressing femininly and modestly for one week! I've been wearing skirts and jumpers for about five years, pretty much since I became a Christian. I did not start out dressing modestly though. Before I became a Christian I tried to dress as immodestly as I could in order to gain attention from men. This is such a sad state to be in and I thank the Lord that He has helped me in dressing modestly and desiring to be a blessing~ not a hinderance ~to men and Christian brothers in Christ. I also cover my head. . .something for which I have gained many bessings from! So, I hope as I post my outfits for this week I may be a blessing and encouragement. Let's rise to the highest, dear sisters, and glorify our Lord in our dress (which starts with our hearts!)  

Day One:

Here is the outfit I wore on Easter Sunday. Momma and I found our outfits while visiting Pennsylvannia last week. I'm wearing a paisly light pink and black skirt, a purple shell, and a light black sweater which I really like because it is feminine and modest. Momma is wearing a purple flowered skirt which buttons in the front and a purple blouse (very sweet).


Here's Momma! So pretty!


I work at a Christian camp called Discovery Ministries as a cook. Because we had a group of campers over Easter weekend I had to go in on Sunday afternoon to make up a little meal. So, I quickly changed into a jumper, white shirt, my favorite white sneakers and bobbie socks (so cute:). I have found jumpers to a real blessing. They are feminine, practical, and because I am a little bigger they have proven to be one of the best ways to be modest. Please excuse the dying dandilions! :)

  


Day Two:

Here I am on Monday afternoon. I'm wearing a white jumper with a blue and red flower print, a blue t-shirt, and a pair of sandals. Thank you Jeremiah for being such a willing and good photographer.


May the Lord bless your day sisters! By His grace,

  1. Dear Frannie,

    I have never been to your blog before, and found it today from your FF link on Jenna's blog. So far I have been encouraged by the seemingly sweet, quiet, sincere, and loving spirit with which you write. I hope to visit again, if I can remember your blog address *rolls eyes* I have so many blogs I like to read that I tend to forget the addresses sometimes, and writing them all down doesn't do much good either, 'cause I just lose the paper! *Gives exasperated sigh* ;) So if I don't come back, that is probably the reason.
    I love your Easter outfit!

    Blessings sister!

    SOLI DEO GLORIA!

  4. Dear sisters,
    Thank you all for leaving your comments! I feel blessed by knowing I'm being able to bless others. I praise the Lord. To Kyrie, I understand about not remembering addresses! I have a hard time with that too! :) For Addie, I look forward to visiting your blog and thanks for "following" me! And for Hannah, thank you. We have lived in this location for about 1 1/2 years now and we have been been encouraged and blessed by the beauty which surrounds us!
    Thank you all again! May the Lord bless your day, Frannie
