Special Announcement!

Since Sarah and Madeline are busy with schoolwork and homework and adapting to the new lifestyle of college students, we’re finding less time to fit writing into our schedules. We both want to continue writing for this blog and sharing our fashion and beauty knowledge with our wonderful readers, so we found a way we can still write, but write less often.

After a lot of thought and prayer, we’ve decided to add two new girls to our staff! They are as passionate about modest fashion and inner beauty as we are and I know you’ll love them. They will take over half of our weeks so we only have to write half as much now. But don’t worry, we’ll still be around during that other time!



The first new writer is Rachel! She’s 18 and loves to write and express herself through words. She’s passionate about modesty and looking stylish while being modest. To her, modesty shows respect to ourselves, God, and other people. She thinks modesty should be based in God and emphasize humility, meekness, and Christ-like behavior, and beauty and inner self-confidence should be built in God, who looks at each one of us and tells us we are beautiful, and as our Creator, that opinion should be the most important of all. Check out her bio page for more!


The next new staff writer is Grace! She’s 15 and enjoys writing about fashion and modesty. She thinks of modesty as beautiful and mysterious because it is keeping what is meant for her future husband a secret for only him. She believes femininity is very important because it means embracing what God has given us, and dressing and acting in a feminine manner means that we’re proud that God made us female. Read her bio page to learn more about her.

Please welcome these beautiful ladies to Mod Style Lounge, and be looking out for posts from both of them within the next couple weeks!

Yours Truly! She had the highest overall score and also was the only contestant with a perfect score on an outfit (that’s how tough the judges were!), and she got TWO perfect scores! It was unanimous, we all loved her style!

The girls who win the prizes are…

*Ashley* from Live for Today had the second highest score! She won us over with her creative and funky style. Congratulations! She wins Shari Braendal’s book Good Girls Don’t Have to Dress Bad, and the Rue21 necklace.

Beth Ann from Genuine Beauty had the third highest score! Her style epitomizes modesty, fashion, and classiness. She wins the box of Sarah’s favorite beauty goodies and handmade friendship bracelets.

Our fourth highest score goes to Amber Noella from The Creative Daisy. We loved her super trendy and fun style. She wins a $25 Macy’s gift card to buy whatever she wants!

Send me your snail-mail address and we’ll ship the prizes to you! (Check my profile for my email addy) Please try to get it to me before the end of this week, or we'll have to hand your prize off to the next girl.

I also thought we should mention another contestant. Libbi from The Funner Life seemed to be the readers favorite! On our poll, she received nearly 50% of the votes. Talk about a lot of love!!! If you’ll send me an email, I’ll get you a button to display on your blog as well!
