Good post.

An observation though: I find that women dress every bit as much to impress other women as men. At least this is what I see at your typical UPC camp meeting.

You may ask me – so how does it work for you? Well, I am so thankful to say that I have a wonderful husband who loves me and shows his love for me in many ways. One of those ways is to tell me if I have something on that could be too tight, too revealing, or whatever. Sometimes its hard to see yourself, and know how something really looks. He always shares with me too how wonderful I look whenever it is pleasing to him. I seek to please my husband. I don’t want to uncover my nakedness to anyone other than him. Modesty comes from the heart, and is evidenced by one’s actions. It is truly a heart issue, of pleasing God first, and then my husband.
Of course in a truly healthy household he will also tell you when something is not revealing enough.
