Meet Sarah, Kaley and Eden. Together they comprise the writing team at Mod Style Lounge, a hot new website about fashion and modesty written by teen girls for teen girls.

Just like you they’ve grown frustrated with women who climb up on soapboxes and make it seem like style is a sin. Appalled by the idea that fashion has to be forfeited for modesty, these girls banned together to create a place where fashion can be filtered through the lens of modesty but you can still come out looking trendy and like you went shopping somewhere other than your grandma’s closet.

“We want other girls to know they can dress attractively and stylish while still being modest,” Kaley, and eighteen year old senior, says.

“When most people think of dressing modestly they think of long loose dresses and wearing head coverings,” adds Sarah, also an eighteen year old senior, “that kind of modesty isn’t for everyone and definitely isn’t for us! At Mod Style Lounge we take the latest trends and create modest fashion so you can be trendy and respect yourself and others too.”

Eden, a sixteen year old junior, agrees. “Modesty has such a horrible reputation as being boring and void of color and uniqueness. We want to help girls realize you can look fantastic without looking racy.”

In their own search for guidance on how to be modest the girls noticed that there were far more resources promoting a risqué approach to fashion. Almost everything they found on modesty came from a mother figure that just didn’t seem to get where they were coming from.

“Most of the blogs were for adult women written by adult women,” Sarah said. “Being a highschooler myself, I know we teenage girls need guidance in finding cute, modern and modest fashion.”

“Our blog is more relatable,” Eden adds, “because it’s teen girls writing for teen girls. We’re all on the same level without the semi-authoritative adult mentality.”

The girls also understand the pressure to fit in that comes from friends and classmates.

“It’s hard to stand strong in your belief to not wear booty-shorts when in the summertime almost everyone is wearing them,” Kaley adds.

In addition to highlighting fun new fashions, the girls also offer practical tips on making sure you are dressing modestly.

Eden regularly writes about how to maintain a unique and funky style while making sure jeans and shirts aren’t too tight or too low. Sarah incorporates Scripture like 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 to help provide a mental check of whether or not readers are treating their bodies like the temple of the Holy Spirit. And Kaley offers dressing room tips like trying all of your clothes on to make sure they fit properly before buying.

The girls also use videos and pictures to demonstrate that the girls and women we see in magazines aren’t real, they’re airbrushed.

“I think a lot of girls see women in magazines with perfect skin and perfect bodies wearing skimpy clothes and getting lots of attention. They want to look like that but it’s not reality,” Sarah says. “The real woman behind that looks just like you and me. The woman in the magazine is fixed and edited. Confidence is a real issue. It’s so hard for a girl to believe she is truly beautiful and doesn’t have to get attention by dressing that way.”

Eden chimes in. “Modesty shows the respect a girl has for herself, for her guy friends and for those she may meet in her day. It also represents the respect she has for her Heavenly Father and the body He gave her.”

When it comes to modesty and fashion these girls get it. If you are a teenage girl, their blog is a must read. A new post from one of the girls appears every week. If that’s not often enough, all three of them also write for the Proverbs 31 Ministries Rad Revolution blog, and Sarah also writes for Real Teen Faith. In addition to that, all three of them maintain their own personal blogs (click on their names in the first sentence of this post to find them).
