We do not watches/wedding bands...as Scripture clearly condemns jewelry/ornamentation on the temple of God.
I do not like the Pentecostal fashion shows that we often see in camp-meetings. I believe they're violating the principle of external holiness, not to mention the costly apparel. However, there's no Scripture condemning conservative attire, such as ties, scarves on a woman's head, etc., though I do believe that one can also get carried away w/ this as well. We should be there to see folks transformed into the image of Christ/delivered from vices that hold them down/gain doctrinal understanding/etc....not to vaunt ourselves.
Listen folks, just so you understand, we do not teach that one has to look like you stepped off of an oatmeal box, or just come in from the hoeing the garden. We believe that we have a responsibility to look presentable/neat, yet not ornamental/decorative, as this serves as a distraction from the indwelling glory of God.
Had enough...studying many different things right now...blessings anyway. May check in periodically, as time allows....rdp.
