I am just enjoying these quotes on the beauty of being a woman at the moment, have a beautiful weekend!
“Why do women want to dress like men when they’re fortunate enough to be women?
Why lose femininity, which is one of our greatest charms?
We get more accomplished by being charming than we would by flaunting around in pants and smoking.
I’m very fond of men. I think they are wonderful creatures. I love them dearly. But I don’t want to look like one.
When women gave up their long skirts, they made a grave error….” Tasha Tudor
There is such a power in women who are dressed well. Women, you can literally disciple men on how to treat you when you dress like ladies. A lady can have so much presence that she will disarm the enemies and critics of Christ just by the way she holds herself and conducts herself and speaks. This is so powerful. You deserve respect as a creation of God and a woman of God. You can dress and act in such a way that you will command that respect.” - Geoff Botkin
Don't above all things, forget you are a woman;
she is far more attractive when seen in the flowing draperies
that centuries of use have made their own,
than when masquerading as a man - Author Unknown
Blessings to you and your homes,
Thank you for sharing Gae and for your lovely comment.
ReplyDeleteYes, there are many ways to deny oneself and allow Our Lord to guide.
Grace & Peace dear friend,
Maria.
Love them all!! Especially the Tasha Tudor one!
ReplyDeleteHi Gae,
ReplyDeleteI love these quotes, especially the one by Tasha Tudor! The last one reminds me of The Sound of Music when Maria makes the children's play clothes from "some old drapes"!
They are all so true. Thanks for sharing and have a nice weekend.
Blessings,
Anne

ReplyDeleteGae,
ReplyDeleteI loved these quotes, and agreed with each one! It's so important for us as Christian women to embrace our femininity instead of trying to "hide." it.
