Sports Running Skirts and More...

I continue to be of the mind that if there is an activity 
that we can't do modestly - perhaps we should rethink 
if we really need to be doing that activity.   
The Christian life is, after all, a day-to-day dying to our own whims and desires.
   That said - I also believe there are many modest outfit 
options for seeing us through an assortment of sporting activities.  
Take a peek at this sport company's approach to modesty...

I'm thinking a full light knit skirt with leggings

 underneath should get us through most activities!  

And it's a cute look to boot!

Shipping to the USA is not a great-looking option - 

but this would not be a hard look to recreate.

Riding Bicycle in a Skirt...

In my area - its not uncommon to see conservative Christian women  riding bicycle 

in a skirt.  But there are some challenges.  Namely - the skirt getting caught on 

bicycle parts when too long... or of course riding up as you move your legs.

But I'm encouraged to find this.... A company has come out with a 'bicycle skirt' 

that unzips for pedaling - and reveals not a slit (yeah!) - but more fabric!   
Altho - a fuller skirt to begin with would solve the problem. 
But at least this is a step in the right direction for mainstream society. 
And I love the charming photos!

And this dear blogger did a post on bicycling in skirts that I love as well.  

Her ideas?  Wear leggings underneath...

 Or maybe padded bike shorts which no one can even see!  By the way - 

you can do most anything in a fuller skirt that falls just below the knee.  

Plenty of room to move, full enough for layering, and isn't too long to be dangerous. 

Now - go bike your heart out and be modest too!

A Thought on 'Modest Is Hottest'....

Have you heard this phrase?  I'm so glad there are ministries and 
persons who are choosing to uphold the biblical values of modesty.  
Many are making better choices regarding their wardrobes and society 
is beginning to rethink this topic like never before.  This is great!

But 'Hottest'?   
 
Modesty is God commanded (it's not about us).  And our obedience brings 
Him glory.  We are to protect the sensual part of ourselves from 
public display.  Why?  Because it is beautiful and belongs to the 
one God has given us in marriage - or will yet give us - 
and it does not belong to the masses.  Should we be wanting to look 'hot' - 
a sensual term that denotes being a 'turn-on'?  

Should Christian modesty and 'hot' go together?  
Perhaps we should rethink our word choices.

Side note -  Let's think one step further...  Where will others focus their eyes 
when there are words splashed across the upper chest?
