The clothing a woman wears is a subject that is taken rather seriously
among the religious Jewish community, but there is nothing in the Torah
that says a woman should look frumpy.
Conservative attire,
meaning long sleeves, skirts and head-coverings are a style norm for
these modest maidens, but covering up doesn’t have to mean wearing an
unflattering sac. Many observant women take pride in looking beautiful
inside and out, and find inventive ways to make covering up look cute.
What better place is there to find women who are conservatively creative than the streets of the Holy Land?
Try it:
Add a pattern scarf to almost any autumn outfit, but make sure it
matches your color scheme. Scarves are a necessary accessory. Especially
with conservative attire, scarves are an easy way to liven it up while
covering it up. And don’t be shy, scarves leave plenty of room for
creativity.
Warning: If
you prefer wigs to headscarves, make sure it looks natural. There is
nothing worse than a giant furry animal sitting on a woman’s head.
Wanting natural hair is understandable, but if it doesn’t look real, you
are fooling no one. Go for the head scarf instead: authentic and
endless style possibilities.
