Finding My Style...Again: MOd ReTRo

After turning thirty, waist deep into mommyhood, and being a conservative Christian, it wasn't easy, but I think I've found my style again and some clothes to match. I'd describe my style as mod-retro.

The internet has been great in letting me window shop without strollers and kids running into the streets.  The website I've been frequenting is Modcloth.com.  I'd like to add about 8 inches of fabric to most of the their dresses, but here's some dresses on my wish list that I've found to be cute and modest:
How about you? Where's your favorite site to shop?





Now back to storm watching...

  1. The grey one is cute, retro in a 50's way. My fav site for clothes shopping is JC penny.

  2. Very cute and I can totally see you in all of these!!

    Ummmm....Modern Maternity these days....

    I just told Tom that I'm going to need some pants for the 3rd trimester, as, all the girls were born in the summer months and I wore shorts or capris or sundresses....When I was pregnant with Nicholas, born in March, my water broke 2 months early, so in the hospital I was, and only had one month in that trimester of needing long pants....and I was about 50 lbs thinner!!!!

  3. Finding modest clothing that isn't frumpy is SO difficult :( I find myself getting incredibly discouraged and frustrated when I'm shopping. I'll have to check out this site...if you find any other good ones, let me know!! :)

  4. I know what you mean, Allison! Another reason, I am staying away from the mall...
    Will let you know that I also like Mango.com and ShabbyApple.com. Shabby Apple is the best, but very expensive. Someday, I'll save up enough for something from that store!

  5. Have you heard of Vintage Hem (http://www.vintagehem.com/)? Their slips are a great way to add a couple of inches to too short skirts or dresses. :)
