Happy Valentine's Day from the Queen

My daughter, bless her heart, made me a chocolate candy heart necklace for Valentin's Day made from chocolate, saran wrap and ribbons. As she was bestowing me with this precious gift she discovered that it was too small. Either she made the necklace too small or my head is overly large, but being the chipper 9 year old that she usually is she pronounced me Queen of Valentines as she placed this lovely necklace on my head.

While I am proud to wear it, the temptation of smelling chocolate all day has proven to be a bigger temptation that I am up for currently...the necklace that was actually a crown is alas, now a bracelet. YUM.

A Red, Red Rose

A Red, Red Rose
by Robert Burns

O my luve's like a red, red rose.
That's newly sprung in June;
O my luve's like a melodie
That's sweetly play'd in tune.

Valentine's Day is almost upon us and for those who don't boycott the day (like my sister, Alena who works at a flower shop so can you blame her??) it is the season of love and romance. According to some sources Valentine's Day is the number one day out of the entire year to receive a marriage proposal. And what should the stylish and modest modern woman wear on the day she may become engaged? Why a gorgeous red dress of course!

With this dress and a pair of killer pumps what man could resist proposing to his lady love?

As for my sister, the boycotter of all things Valentine-y? She and other Valentine's haters can wear this lovely dress below until the mourning period is over at 12 Midnight February 14 and she'll still look gorgeous and classy.

What am I wearing? Well, since Valentine's Day is on a Saturday and my husband is tied up continually with meetings, etc this time of year I will be wearing sweats, I'm sure. Whatever you wear, enjoy yourself and hoard that chocolate!

Sharing the Love

Nothing is more exciting to me than to be cruising around the internet and find my own blog listed on another's blogroll. I have noticed lately that this blog has been receiving hits from one particular site rather frequently. AmandaBeth Online is one of the few blogs out there in the blogosphere that helps celebrate modesty and pass along style tips for dressing modestly and classy. I may be wrong, but I think this blog has a new look and I'm loving it! Thanks Amanda!

Praying for Parker, support for Parker

My husband and I had the opportunity and pleasure yesterday of meeting a very courageous young man and a family who's loyalty is astounding.  We were invited over to meet this little guy because of some legislation that was incorrectly attributed to my husband. This little boy:

... was born six weeks early with chronic lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, a tethered spinal cord, an imperforate anus, and an extra chromosome. He's undergone many surgeries, including critical intestinal surgery, a tracheotomy, g-tube placement and just this month, surgery to correct a life threatening bowel adhesion. He’s spent more time in the hospital than out of it. We were able to discuss Parker's needs, where support is failing and what can possibly be done to direct the government in a direction that will keep providing and supporting those with special needs.

But speaking of support, I was so touched by the way that this family has completely rallied around Parker in all ways: Grandpa willing to sell everything he has literally to support and sustain Parker's life. Loving sisters and brother who not only show affection, which would be expected, but know how to feed Parker through his tube, handle his oxygen apparatus (I'm trying to use big words here to cover up the fact that I don't know the medical terms), hold him and snuggle him, all while being very careful not to injure or cause pain from his recent surgery sites. I was very touched. And again, though you would thoroughly expect siblings and parents to love any child, brother or sister, their dedication to Parker's well-being was awesome and inspiring. An incredible family...parents, grandparents and children.

The medication, supplies, and equipment to assist Parker have cost a literal fortune for this health-insured family. What isn't realized by many, is that even though you have adequate or even superb health insurance, should a catastrophe occur such as a permanently disabling accident (as in the case of my brother-in-law) or a child born with severe health issues, insurance coverage max's out quickly. Surgeries and hospital stays add up to the multiple thousands of dollars.

"So often we read about children like Parker and think we wish we could help.  But this time we can help in a simple way."  says Mom, Tammy. If you have kids who enjoy playing games online, direct them here:

Advertising revenue that is earned while playing will go directly to Parker for his ongoing care. Every little bit helps! You can also follow Parker's story at PrayingforParker.

Now...since this is a blog for Diviine ModesTee, I must add that I wore this skirt:

...with a brown empire waist top, cream Diviine ModesTee Camisole underneath, brown tights and kickin' cowboy boots that I got for a steal at Ross because I had just got off work. I don't normally dress "up" to visit adorable little boys (I mean LOOK at those eyes!), but this brave boy certainly deserved the honor.

Diviine Modestee is feeling....

Lonely!  Go here: Diviine ModesTee's Facebook.  It's Diviine ModesTee's new Facebook page.   My husband is thinking he is so it because he signed up for Facebook last week and already has over 100 "friends".  Big Whoop, I tell him.  It's the quality, not the quantity.  So if you want to become one of our most qualified friends, sign up as one of our BFF's!  Now.  

Thank you. :)

Bon Voyage!

A sweet lady who proudly claimed she was 75 years old came into our store over the Black Friday weekend to purchase a swimsuit for a cruise that she was invited to go on with her daughter and Son-in-Law. This was her first cruise and it had been years since she had purchased or even worn a swimsuit.   Her first choice was our Raspberry/Raspberry Ice BowTie Tankini.  She had shopped our website prior to coming into our store, so she had a pretty good idea of what she wanted.  The raspberry color of the suit she picked was absolutely perfect with her porcelain skin and silvery-grey hair, and she prefered the Boy Brief and the matching swimskirt for extra modesty.  She tried on a second style of swimsuit, but quickly went back to her first choice.  "When you are as old as me you don't have time to dither around with what you think you want", she proudly declared as she purchased her suit.  I wished her well on her cruise and I will, without a doubt, be thinking of the warm climates of any "land where palm trees sway" when we get hit with our first snowstorm here in the Rocky States.  Mele kalikimaka, sister!
