Pure Fashion

Sunday afternoon, Ella and I had the opportunity to attend the Pure Fashion show put on by our friends who own Creative Visions. It was such a special time. This event is the culmination of an 8 month mentorship for young ladies in their teens who want to learn how to carry themselves and dress modestly while still looking great! I was so thrilled to see that Kohl's and Dillards sponsored the event heavily and even supplied their clothes for the models to wear. The models were the cutest teen girls who have a desire to be pure in all areas of their lives, especially their dress. They realize that they need to help boys be pure as well and there is quite an emphasis on that subject. I'm sure all of you who have little men can appreciate that!
Lisa Rice was the keynote speaker from "For young ladies only" and the other more famous books in the series like "For Women Only" which many of you have probably already read.
Nate Sallie was the artist for the event and was great!
I immediately thought of all you Dallas girls, because I think a program like this would go over so well there and it's now a National program. I imagine many of us who have little girls standing in their closets someday or shopping at the mall and the conversations we'll have about taking a stand to dress modestly. What an encouragement for a young mom to know that programs that are "cool" exist for our girls!
