FASHION CHALLENGE: How do you know if an outfit is modest or not???
Fight the Tight
“Is my shirt too tight?”
Solution: Try a different bra. If it’s still too tight, get rid of the shirt. It won’t get larger overnight. Buy a larger-sized shirt. Or try a shirt under the button-down to complete the layered-look.
Raise & Praise
“Am I showing too much belly?”
Solution: Use layers. Put a longer shirt under a shorter shirt. A ribbed T-shirt or long tank will stay tucked in under a trendy shirt. (If you can’t find a long tank, try the boys’ or men’s department.)
I See London. I See France
Solution: Trash your tight pants. For lighter colored pants and skirts use plain white or beige underwear. And as far as bra straps, make sure your tank tops have wide straps to cover what’s underneath.

Solution: Today’s skirts are about extremes. Go for extremely long or extremely full, but pass on extremely short. Shorts can be hard to find, but keep looking! Search for shorts with longer inseams.
Bra-lliant Idea
“Is my bra not doing the trick?”
Solution: When you wear thinner shirts, wear a lined or padded bra to fully cover yourself. Or return to the layered look.
Avoid the Plunge
“Is my shirt too low?”
Solution: Try a tank or shirt underneath. Or use a button-down shirt under a polo or V-neck shirt that plunges too low.
Be skinless. Cover up. Be Modest
