Want super trendy tznius clothing online store...

I"m too lazy to start "making" outfits. I've lost weight, BH, and I've already gotten what I want from Junee's, and Elzee's hasn't updated their site with summer stuff yet. (Urg!) I'm OOT. If anyone knows of any other really cutsey/junior/fun but tznius stores, please post 'em here.

I am petite and just bought what I thought was a tznius dress off overstock.com (normal height)--nope! Doesn't cover the knees at all. So that's why I want the comfort of a frum store. Thanks!

Your title is an oxymoron. Super-trendy is by definition not tznius.

I don't think it's an oxymoron at all. I think you just have to try harder to find what you want and put it together in a tsnius way. For example, the nautical look is in right now and there's nothing inherently untznius about that, or attention getting. It's mainly about navy and white horizontal stripes. Smile

There is no online store like that though. You kind of have to piece things together slowly after multiple shopping trips. H&M and Zara are your best bets for trendy clothes and they often have tsnius items but they don't have online stores. Asos is a british store that's similar in price and quality and they do free shipping and returns so you might want to try that out. But their sizing is a little odd, imo. I'm a US 2 or 4 and I bought a 6 from them in a cute skirt b/c it was the only size left and it was snug (and it was a US 6/UK 8). They carry diff. brands but they also have their own Asos brand.

Forever 21, H&M, Zara, Mango, Calvin Klein, Tommy, Old Navy etc have trendy things.

Also, you can wear the dress that you bought with a simple thin black skirt underneath to make the lenght OK and it looks really cool Wink

There's a new blog and website that's exactly what you're looking for.
HigherFashionOnline.com
and
ModestProposalsOnline.blogspot.com

I found the above website to be such a large mishmash of online stores. It's not one store, but just a collection of other websites' offerings. The styles are mixed together and some of it isn't the least but modest (go to the special occasion section and it's all sleeveless and short/way above the knee). It's really not a solution to tsnius online shopping at all. But the blog looks interesting. I just think the "store" is a "fail."

That's the idea, to have all the tznius items from dozens of online stores in one place, to save you the trouble of having to wade through all the items in every store.

As far as the Special Occasion items, they are all made to order to whatever measurements you provide. They will happily make them below the knee or even full length, and add sleeves. The sleeveless items are meant to be worn with matching shrugs and jackets, which they make as well.

I'm glad you like the blog. I appreciate your points about the store.
