Modest and Functional
"I've found that for every day, a nice khaki or denim skirt, that isn't too full, is very functional around the house, yet looks very nice. It's easy to pair skirts with different shirts and sweaters according to the weather. Modest tops are easier to find brand new--skirts are harder to find. I go to thrift shops, and find most of my skirts there. If you pick solid colors, in styles that don't date themselves, no one will be the wiser that you've gone to thrift stores!
For around the house, I wear canvas shoes. If I'm going out, I may change to sandals in the summer or nylons/tights and a casual pair of shoes in the fall/winter. In really cold winter weather, I put a pair of cuddle duds on (rolled up, of course, so they don't show beneath my dress!)
