Day 5 - Starting the Morning with the Lord

I don’t know about you, but is my favorite day! There’s nothing better than starting out the new week worshiping God with my church family. Growing up, I've always loved dressing up for church.

How do you like to dress for church? Link below!

Day 4 - Weekend Fun: On Your Day Off

You’re free! It’s time for fun; no more thinking about work or school! Today you’re just lounging around, reading or watching movies, maybe getting some things done you didn't have time for this week. How will you make your lazy day outfit comfy but still cute?

Day 3 - Date Night with the Girls

The week is over, finally! Time to hang out with your girls tonight! You are going to a nice restaurant or a fancy party. How will you dress for the festivities tonight?

Day 2 - A Walk in the Park

There’s nothing better than taking a relaxing walk on a fall day, strolling down the trail, gazing at the trees, the leaves changing color.

But it can get a bit chilly with the crisp fall air and cool breeze. So what would you wear on your walk? Link below!

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!

Announcing the ladies who will judge those outfits...

Sarah!

Sarah is the admin of the Mod Style Lounge. She came up with the idea for this blog last year after meeting two young ladies, Kaley and Eden, at a writer’s conference and found they all took interest in modest fashion. From that, Mod Style Lounge began. She is the only original staff left. She is a lover of God, a freelance writer, and a cosmetologist in training.


Madeline!

Madeline was introduced to Mod Style Lounge by Eden, one of the original staff writers. After Eden resigned from her position on the blog, Madeline promptly jumped in and took over for her. She says, “I was super excited when I got asked to help because I think this is such a cool way to glorify God. What could be more fun than talking about something you love and including the One you love to be a part of it?!”

Haylie!

Haylie is the newest member of Mod Style Lounge. She helped Sarah brainstorm this event. Haylie is a proud country girl from Florida, calls herself crazy and a little weird, and is uber proud to be a Christian. She enjoys reading, writing, going shopping, talking to friends, going to church and youth group, hanging out with her mom and dancing in the car.

Eden!

Eden was an original member of Mod Style Lounge, and now she’s back to help judge the fashion show! Eden likes being able to express herself with style freely. She thinks she is bold with her style and doesn't stay within the lines. Her passions include her relationship with Christ, writing, photography, music, amateur psychology, and throwing outfits together.

Emily!

Emily is Sarah’s younger sister, who likes fashion and modesty, ballet and worship dancing, and is a junior in high school. She is an aspiring photographer and keeps a blog of her journey. You can check it out here. She loves the Lord and wants to go on a mission trip after she graduates high school before she starts her career as a photographer.

AND (*drumroll............................*)

Here are the prizes!!!

The winner will receive:

 

1st Prize: Good Girls Don’t Have to Dress Bad by Shari Braendel (see more about the book and read a sample here: http://www.sharibraendel.com/Good_Girls_Dont_Have_To_Dress_Bad.html), along with a necklace from rue21.

A Girl's Life Fashion Week

A Girl’s Life Fashion Week is a modest fashion show hosted here, at Mod Style Lounge, for those of us who are proud to be girls, but protective of the bodies God has entrusted us with. The event takes place October 1-8, 2010. What you’ll do is make a post on your blog with the pictures of yourself wearing an outfit that fits within the theme of each day and add the direct link to the Mister Linky gadget at the bottom of the different day’s posts. There will be a post here for each day you can link up to. You must participate in at least 5 of the 8 days to have a chance to win. The themes of each day will be:


• Going to the big game
Show your team spirit for you favorite/local/school/college team with style!

• Going to a formal event
Modest, classy, but not too expensive. How will you pull it off?

• Going to church
What do you wear to church?

• Going to relax at home
Look cute while lounging around the house by yourself or with friends!

• Going to the mall
What do you wear while shopping or just hanging out at your local mall?

• Going to youth group /OR/ going to work (whichever applies to you)
Teens: How do you dress at youth group? Adults: How do you dress for work?

• Going out to eat
What would you wear to a nice restaurant?

• Going to the park and/or on a hike
What will you wear when the weather is chilly and you’re enjoying God’s great outdoors?


Your goal is to put together creative and trendy outfits for each theme. How you interpret it is up to you! But here’s the catch. You may not spend over $35 on your outfit for the day! You must either use things you already have in your closet or raid your local thrift store! For this reason, tell us where you got the pieces you are wearing, how much they cost, and/or if you have already had them in your closest for about a year. Your outfit will then be judged in 5 categories:

1. Modesty
We’re not going to go through a list of what’s modest and what’s not. If it feels modest to you, go ahead with it! Just remember, this is one of the categories you’ll be judged in to win.

2. Fashion
You’ll also be judged on your ability to incorporate the latest trends into your modest outfit.

3. Style
Put your own spin on your outfit. Incorporating the latest trends doesn’t mean you have to look like everyone else! The more original you are and the better it suits you, the higher you’ll score in this category.

4. Creativity
This consists of being creative in thinking up an outfit for each theme and being creative in how you put your outfit together. Wow us with something we’ve never thought of, and you’ll score high.

5. Overall Appeal
This will be the judges scoring of how appealing the specific outfit is to them.


More information is coming soon, so keep checking back!
Meanwhile, spread the word! One way is to pick up the button on our sidebar and post it on your own blog. We want to get this out so lots of beautiful ladies can participate!
