Experimentingwithdecor is in her long skirt era… but not for the reason you might think. 💭👗 Growing up in a very religious (Pentecostal) home, wearing long skirts wasn’t just a style choice — it was a requirement. To school, to the playground, to church… skirts only. No exceptions. As a little girl who loved to run, jump, and play, it was frustrating. Always pulling my skirt down or adjusting it made me feel restricted — and honestly, over time, I started to resent the idea of long skirts altogether. For years, I associated them with religious pressure, not personal expression. But here’s the shift: as I grew in my walk with Christ — through prayer, reading Scripture, and truly learning about who He is — I realized something powerful. 👉 A long skirt is just a long skirt. It doesn’t make me more holy. It doesn’t define my relationship with God. And it doesn’t showcase my faith more than my actions ever could. I still choose to dress modestly most days, but not to prove anything to anyone. I don’t dress to check off a religious box — I dress to feel like me. Because true faith is not worn, it’s lived. ✨ “People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” — 1 Samuel 16:7 So now? I wear the skirt if I like the skirt. I wear it because I feel confident, comfortable, and cute — not because I have something to prove. Modesty is no longer a rule for me… it’s just a reflection of how I feel most like myself. 🤍 ⸻ Your turn: Were there pieces of clothing you were raised to believe were “right” or “wrong”?
