This is really going to whack out a few. I'm still very modest even though I don't hold to the traditional Pentecostal standards. I wear earrings, but not huge attention getting ones. If I know that I'll be around someone that it might offend, I won't even wear them. It doesn't matter than much to me.
However, I have been around others that LOVE to push it in someone's face that they now wear things they didn't before. They'll put on the largest pair of earrings to make a point or wear the brightest red lipstick.
I think that is wrong.
Does that make more sense?
Yes...I can think of someone I know who does that, and it's just plain annoying. I really don't even CARE, but she cares that I notice.
So you're marking the difference between those who wear pretty things, and those who wear pretty things and have an attitude because of it. Got it!

Of course, pictures don't lie, do they?
