I’m the 65 yr old girl who commented yesterday. YOU young lady gave me the courage….don’t ask me why, I don’t know, but I wore my long flowing skirt to the chiropractor (I thought I’d get all tangled up and yank it off…😂) and to run my errands in town today. Oh my I felt SO comfortable showing my femininity! Thank you! Keep speaking truth in the face of opposition. ❤

Yes! I wore a long skirt with buttons down the front and a soft shirt with little puffy sleeves and delicate sandals to my doctor’s appointment and an older man said what I was wearing was very nice and that he loves finding things like that for his wife. It warmed my heart, especially since I was feeling some impostor syndrome. Still getting used to dressing more modest and feminine 😅.

@yaninarovira3241 9 месяцев назад

This is coming from a woman that 90% of the time wears pants. Dresses and skirts are the best for us women not only to feel more feminine but for our anatomy we need more ventilation and our feminine parts this is a fact and if you think about it make a lot of sense. I wish I could wear more dresses and skirts.

@milo_thatch_incarnate 11 месяцев назад

I’m a 24-year-old GenZ woman, and I went on this same journey! My mom would make me wear dresses when I was young, so I rebelled against them between the ages of 18 and 22, because I wanted to reject femininity. I was also never a girly girl, so I leaned heavily into that masculine tomboyish energy I had, and cut my hair as short as a boy’s, and wore basically only baggy jeans and tshirts and hoodies. Then, when I was 23, I read “Captivating” by John and Staci Eldridge, and it TOTALLY changed my perspective on femininity. After that, I began venturing into wearing more feminine clothes again, and soon, skirts and dresses. Now, I wear them 70% of the time, because I love how I feel in feminine clothes! My favorite outfits are very heavily 1950s inspired, and I feel so elegant and graceful. Now I can see that my androgynous, masculine attitude and clothing were armor against the vulnerability and gentleness of femininity, which I used to see as weak. Now, I see that the beauty and power of woman is wonderful. Thank you Jesus!

So well said. I am in 40's and feel puzzled why young women today reject to wear feminine clothes. You explained so well!

@milo_thatch_incarnate 5 месяцев назад

@@littlelady7843 - thank you! I think young women today also are more inclined to reject femininity and dresses/skirts because all of the media they see - movies, books, art, even music - depict only “strong modern women”, a.k.a. Feminist women. As a young young woman myself, it seems truly almost impossible to find a single movie made in the last two decades that depicts a feminine woman in a positive light. All the women seem to be superheroes or “don’t need no man” strong-woman types - pants and tough attitudes all the way.

Conservative religion downgrades femininity and says that women are lower in rank than men. That's a lie from the devil. Men and women are equal as are masculinity and femininity, so revel in your femininity. It's the yin and the yang - society needs both equally to be in balance.

@exploringgodscreation- 11 месяцев назад

I love wearing slips under my skirts and dresses. They add a layer for see through cloth, but also keep it from clinging to your bottom, and make the skirt/dress have a flowy look. I've picked up some at an estate sale. I also like to wear longer cardigans over my skirts/dresses to add to the outfit. I picked up a tank top sleeve lace green cardigan that goes down almost to my calves. It adds interest to floral dresses and hides my bottom better.

I've been wearing dresses & skirts for about 7 years now, it was a slow process of moving out of androgynous items (jeans, tshirts, professional attire that imitated masculine styles) and body-conscious clothes (skin tight stuff: skinny jeans, leggings, jeggings, etc) and into more feminine items. It was an unconscious move, really. Thrifting, natural fabrics, sleeves, pockets, and skin coverage; and hats, (and veiling in church!) - that was/is my new goal. I did put on a pair of jeans the other day, and it felt so uncomfortable, tight, & constricting! I would never have thought I would EVER go in this direction. . . .

@denisekeller249 11 месяцев назад

It is absolutely true that skirts with leggings underneath are warmer for winter than pants and/or pants with leggings underneath. I began wearing skirts and dresses all the time about 2 years ago and will never go back ESP in winter.

Good quality finds, great fabrics. May I suggest getting a really nice apron to put over your dresses when you are home to protect them. This used to be the norm along with dresses. I have the hardest time finding anything. I do always look at the thrift store.

@MichelleNovalee 11 месяцев назад

For awhile, I became heavily invested in the color palette theory. I only wore muted colors that matched my palette (cool spring), but recently I have dropped the color palette and decided to embrace orangy colors and I’m absolutely in love with it. I would never wear orange in the past and was told it’s not suitable for my color palette, but I get so many complements on my new orange items now that I don’t know what to believe. So my advice is to not let something restrict you and if you love it, try it out, even if it goes against what your “colors” are. Your closet is beautiful and I love the variety you have in it and the dresses all look great on you. 💞

She has a lot of videos on feminine dressing and even has a series called A Dress a Day in May where each day she talks about feminine dressing and showcases a different dress. She inspired me to explore dresses and also to appreciate womanhood.

@cherylpresleigh6403 11 месяцев назад

You are a precious gem Kelli. Your approach to all this is sweet and kind and always encouraging. I think it’s cool that you’ve found such wonderful options by thrifting for them but I have to say the thing that I’m most encouraged by was telling us that you modified a dress into what would work for you. I appreciate that you encourage to wear what is comfortable. Comfort looks and feels different for everyone and it is a process to get there. I can’t imagine that I’d ever be comfortable in the garden wearing a dress my reasons are different than someone else who isn’t comfortable or maybe is. You are a gentle voice in a loud world and this grammy is blessed by you. God Bless you. 🤗

You are a blessing! 💗 This past year we became members of a local church. Most of the ladies wear dresses to church and most wear them in their daily life. When we began attending, I only had two dresses that were appropriate. It has taken most of this year to discover my style and to gain the confidence to wear dresses almost all the time, even at home. I have kept my fittness clothes, pants and shorts for days at home they would be most practical. These days though, my first choice is to wear a dress. 💗💃🏼💗 Thank you for sharing your journey. 😊

I really appreciate you channel Kelli.

Ah that's challenging. I don't shop at Goodwill for values reasons, I wonder if just outside the city if their are any local Catholic Thrift shops? I've noticed that in all the places we've lived they are the best option to search out because usually they have volunteers, so their prices are reasonable and usually have good quality options.

@vixenrevitup 11 месяцев назад

You are not wrong! My family traveled to Dayton, OH to visit a St. Vincent de Paul, a Valley Thrift Store, and a Village Discount Thrift Store this past Wednesday. The only store that had decent prices was the St. Vincent de Paul! The other two were selling blouses for $12.99-$17.99! It was ridiculous! At least I found several blouses at the St. Vincent de Paul for decent prices, but I literally could not be bothered looking through the clothing racks at the other two as soon as I saw how expensive they were! I am finally discarding my androgynous clothes (T-shirts with worldly logos, sweatpants, sweatshirts, etc.) because the Lord laid it on my heart that, as a Christian, I should dress according to His Word. Unfortunately, with the pandemic and crashing economy, more people are shopping at thrift stores than ever, and people who can afford higher prices set the prices against those who truly need thrift stores due to poverty. In addition, many people are buying certain brands of clothes at thrift stores and selling them online at a much higher price. This trend also affects the needy, including myself. I recently became disabled from the waist down, so buying modest clothes for cheap right now is a must. Can’t really do that when thrift stores want almost $20 for a single blouse!

Hi there, I have just come across you and your husbands' videos/podcasts. I am a senior who has been walking with Jesus for 44 years and have always believed in the roles for men and women that God has taught in his word and have studied the word for that long as well. It is amazing to me how I still did not completely grasp how much I was not truly in line with scripture, thinking I was. Main line "churches" just don't teach it. Talking about clothes, it is funny the things you don't even see until you are convicted by the Lord for your own walk. I thought I would see how many women I saw in town today with dresses on. A big fat zero, everyone looked exactly the same, and it wasn't a pretty sight to be honest. Even the men don't dress nicely. Now that would be a good subject for your husband to address as well. Thank you for your very inspiring and motivating videos.

@Himmiefan 6 дней назад

Except that those roles are not what Jesus taught. Paul's teachings must always go back to a teaching of Christ, or it's just a situation that Paul was encountering at that time. The Ephesian verses are just a way to follow Christ's command to love one another, done with aspects of femininity and masculinity. There is no hierarchy, no who is the boss, just a way to love one another.

I have one black pair that has elastic black lace at the bottom - which is a great idea and looks pretty! Also bicycle pants under dresses, I hear is comfortable. I'm too am on a journey.

Love this video! I’m in the same place as you on this journey. Almost to where I am more comfortable in skirts and dresses than pants! Still have my jeans for barrel racing and farm work, haven’t figured a way around that yet🤣

@homewithkelli 11 месяцев назад

Haha yes, I get it! In those moments skirts or dresses may not be the most comfortable to work in!

Not only are dresses and skirts more feminine, but they are also far more flattering.

Thank you for sharing! You look great in the blue layered look, quite noble-looking. I'm also thankful to have intentionally practised wearing more dresses and skirts this year. Maybe cycling through the same 4 pieces of clothing for almost a year isn't so exciting for others to look at, but I don't mind haha

@homewithkelli 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much Christine! Haha and yes that is a great point with cycling through the same 4 pieces of clothing- I do think that is a way of simplifying one area of life!

@JessicaT10118 11 месяцев назад

Layering tops over your dresses to change up the look is such a good idea. Great fall inspo! I think a cream or beige color shirt could work well with your red button down skirt. That skirt is a very good color for you as a summer skin tone.

I found an organic cotton dress from a company called Pact on Poshmark. I am going to switch the shoulder straps around so that they unbutton in the front instead of the back for breastfeeding. It was BOGO, so I also got a wool skirt that I am going to try to make into a maternity skirt by adding a maternity panel to the front.

A long time ago I had a season of only skirts and dresses and that season did include some winter weather. Leggings or tights under two or even three layers of long skirts was pretty warm. Pre-1900s women kept warm with layers and thick petticoats.

This was so helpful to me. I just found your channel and I've been trying for awhile now to get into wearing skirts/dresses more. All your ideas are really good. Please pray for me to know how i can talk to my daughter about dressing in a more feminine way. Sometimes it seems like she rejects anything having to do with femininity.

@cassandralesh8536 5 месяцев назад

During the day I'm usually wearing a short pencil skirt and ankle booties. Evenings if I'm going out i tend to wear a dress and those are mostly short. I rarely wear pants and i never wear jeans. I'm a nurse so at work i wear scrubs which are dull and androgynous. When I'm off of work i want to look like a woman.

@winterwoodcottage3657 4 месяца назад

I’m 54 and am very feminine but I don’t gravitate towards skirts and dresses. I love them but feel very vulnerable in them. Leggings underneath help but I feel vulnerable when my privates aren’t protected by extra layers. Dresses and skirts make me feel pretty but vulnerable.

@katherinenaeyaert8802 8 месяцев назад

Hi Kelli, Thank you for providing such an inspiring source for those looking to break away from the current trends! I have a question about a previous video, but can’t recall which one. In a previous video, you mentioned a vintage German shop that sold vintage German folk dresses. I think it was in Indiana, but not sure. I am planning a road trip to Indiana with my mom soon, and was hoping it would be in that area. Can you share the name of the store? Thank you again for all the wisdom that you share!

I need to start wearing dresses due to health issues but what shoes do you wear with dresses? I have to wear supportive shoes and I typically wear brooks sneakers but I think I am going to look stupid. Also how to you workout in a skirt? I workout everyday.

@jenslack308 4 месяца назад

Have you every tried Vans sneakers? The Old Skool version is my favorite - it’s a classic/retro look with a much slimmer profile than your average sneakers. Personally I don’t wear insoles with them anymore but my first pair I did wear with insoles if you need them.

@patriciabritton5917 11 месяцев назад

So curious since your are really loving your dresses do you wear pants at all or have you changed to only dresses? I would like to get some culottes that are long so then they look like a skirt but they are wide legged pants. They used to be in style then seem to fade out and now back in. I shop thrift stores a lot for clothes too. I like to look for bargins also.

@homewithkelli 11 месяцев назад

Hi Patricia! There are occasions where I do where pants or shorts, which is why I've kept them. But my average day I will wear dresses =)

@trishazeigler92 11 месяцев назад

Is there a reason that you chose mostly linen/cotton clothing, as you mentioned in your other video?

@homewithkelli 11 месяцев назад

Hi, yes! Our skin is our largest organ and it absorbs what we put on it (especially when out in the hot sun). I had already focused on the food we eat, cleaning products, and the makeup/skin care I put on, so the next step was to move towards a more natural fiber wardrobe. Ideally, I would love to have an organic natural fibers wardrobe, but that gets expensive quick. So for undergarments we keep it organic, but for everything else, I just aim to keep it natural. Polyester is made of plastics/microplastics that can absorb into the bloodstream and it also can affect hormones. With the fertility journey we have been on, I'm trying to address all the areas that I can to bring healing and balance to our bodies. I hope that all makes sense!

@trishazeigler92 11 месяцев назад

@homewithkelli yes, I can definitely understand that! I am having a hard time imagining wearing no synthetics though. Wool and linen seem to be expensive and most of my wardrobe is at least partially synthetic 😔 even a lot of wool items are mixed or lined with synthetics. I will just have to keep looking at thrift shops.

@trishazeigler92 11 месяцев назад

I can't find a wool skirt that isn't lined with polyester. Guess I will just have to keep wearing my maxi skirts for now. I suppose linen and cotton wouldn't be warm enough for winter? Maybe jean skirts.

@beverlymitchell1892 11 месяцев назад

@goodzzzilla 11 месяцев назад

@@trishazeigler92 In my country it is also difficult to find good quality skirts and dresses at low prices. Most women's clothing is synthetic and looks like rags, with the exception of good expensive brands. That's why I really want to learn to sew. I bought a sewing machine and signed up for online sewing courses. Consider learning to sew yourself. Help us, Lord, to learn to sew.
