You are a good example to the your chapel and the world. An example affects many more people than you can even imagine.

When we would go to restaurants, there is practically not one time that some one does not come up to us to commend us on the behavior of our children. My wife is a very good cook, so the children are accustomed to eating adult foods from all over the world and food for them is a big festival. All the children at the table eating and conversing and trying each others dish, it is a big festival.  You can see many couples and adults looking at the party and marveling. The clothes my girls wear is part of the attraction, it separates them from the world, it is what first attracts everyone. On two occasions, when I asked for the bill, the waiter told me it was paid already by someone who wished to remain anonymous. This is how one family can change the world, by actually looking like someone who is serious about living a happy holy life.
Your daughters sound lovely and charming, and your wife appears to be doing a great job. Great story. Thanks for sharing!

We've seen mostly pictures of what not to wear, which is ok, but does anyone have some pictures handy of what to wear? I think it would be helpful to many. I might post some later if I have a little while to spare.

It is worse than you think, because it is the mother that bought them those clothes and the Father who paid for them.

The foundation of it all is that mothers erroneously learn from other women that their beauty and value comes from the attraction they can bring to themselves from men and they teach the same to their daughters. The fathers are indifferent to the whole thing, likely thinking about business, or golf, an NFL football game, or today, even the next video game he's going to buy.
I wonder if the mothers DO buy the clothes, or if they send the daughter's out to buy their own clothing.  Also, I wonder of the girls have a job and tell her parents "it's my money, I can spend it on what I want".  I do believe men, as a general rule, do not respect women properly because they have not been taught properly.
Which is why there should be NO TV in the house, no cell phones by children until college, no social media, no surfing the web, computers in central locations of the house, parents who choose the friends of the children, etc.  
I will admit my own daughter waits until the last minute to get in the car for mass and I often have to send her back upstairs due to her wearing something she's outgrown, not that it was purchased that way.

Here are some I found modest, again, with no white or see through blouses and nothing tight.

Are you defending the present day fashions?  Are you arguing that women had perfect modesty 100 years ago (which they didn't)?  What's your point?
I am absolutely NOT defending the present day fashions.
Matthew promised to embed the picture in my previous post for me tonite so
I believe my point will become clearer.
