modest clothing

Abby recently requested that I add her Silk and Purple blog to the Fashion Belle blogroll, and after seeing the quality fashion, etiquette and recipe material she posts with the help of several other contributors, I was happy to do so. Abby also publishes an individual blog called La Vie est Belle (French for "Life is Beautiful") with even more photos of cute, modest outfits.

Zahra Aljabri, a young attorney from Minneapolis, Minnesota USA, has worked with her husband to establish a business to provide modest clothing with high style. She calls her business Mode-sty, pronounced MODE-e-sty, to emphasize the mode or modern element of her style.
