an old-fashioned relationship in a modern world

Disclaimer: I'm in any way, shape or form an expert on this subject, but I thought I would share some tips I've been using for some time now.

Cami tops under dresses/ shirts that have a big or exposing neckline. I really love the ones from Primark, for they are simple, inexpensive and are available in variety of colors;

Go for dresses with a more "feminine" vibe. Dresses with flower patterns for example, long dresses or with a lace detailing. Avoid the "body con" type of dresses.

This one is one of the oldest in the book, but don't go for skirts or dresses that go way above the knee. 5 cms above the knee, in my opinion, is enough if you want the hem of the dress to be above that part. Use the fingertips to measure.

Don't go shopping when fashion trends are not modest. I got this one from Classically Abby and it makes a lot of sense. You'll be tricked by marketing into buying something that doesn't fit what you are going for.

Look into vintage fashion trends and thrift shops. Vintage fashion is way more modest. Websites like Vinted are awesome to find vintage/ vintage inspired clothing that often falls into the modest category.

Use bandanas or head scarfs. They will add something to your outfit and will make you feel more feminine and modest

Have proper posture

Be well mannered

Say "please" and "thank you"

Take up the lost art of writing thank you notes

Maintain common courtesy with everyone

Be on time. Better yet, be early. 10 minutes at least. In the corporate world being early is on time, being on time is late, being late is twice as late.

Be mindful of your tone, don't come accross angry when not needed.

Carry yourself with confidence

Have quiet confidence

Don't rush, take things slow (e.g your speech, your walk etc).
