 Posted: Tue, Dec 27 2005, 7:12 pm Post subject: Great plus size skirt and jacket set |
| |
I was shopping today and passed a Catherine's store. Ive never gone in there before and did not like the look of anything they had in the window but went to see if maybe I could find a nice skirt anyway I was about to walk out not liking anything there at all when I found this gorgeous dark denim stretch skirt and there was also a matching zip up jacket. It was realy affordable compared to other similar things Ive bought before and looks so nice on. The skirt is 36.00 and the top is 42.00 . The skirt is also a perfect length, covers everything while sitting.
Im passing this on becuase its a perfect tznius outfit and would love to hear from other ppl if you find something nice in larger sizes and where to find it.
Here is the link. It looks MUCH BETTER in person so if you have a Catherines near you just go in to look http://catherines.charmingshoppes.com/Shopping/product.aspx?product_id=C1011814&nav=C1 and for the jacket http://catherines.charmingshoppes.com/Shopping/product.aspx?product_id=C1011812&nav=C1
Definitely something you might find in Boro Park for a LOT more money.

I'm guessing Kiryas Joel (though I have no idea if that is what the KJ in the OP's screenname means).

 Yes you arent supposed to wear denim if you live in KJ. there are a lot of women who wear very dark colored denims like this outfits color and get away with it. But I do wear all kinds of denim and also lots of other things women from KJ could never get away with becuase Im not Satmar (I'm Lubavitch) and I dont live in KJ proper I live in Monroe. Im not bound by any of their rules or minhagim.

LOL... that's right, we shouldn't be wearing any denim stuff. although s/times I wish I could... not because it's more comfy.. but bec. forbidden water tastes sweet...
know what I mean?
and Yes KJ, stands for Kiryas Joel and that's the same thing in ambassador's name.

Sevensenses... There are a lot of things that Satmar Women cannot do that most other Frum women can and I'm not talking about breaking "halachik" prohabitions, obviously I'm not doing an aveira by driving a car or wearing denim. Im just wondering how you were taught growing up. When educated about whats good and bad and what you are and arent allowed to do is there a differentiation made between what is minhag and halacha? from my impression it seems to me like it has to be very black and white here. like anything that goes against the "rules" is just as bad as maybe lets say doing a real aveira? I would like to hear your input on this, what you think.

| Driving is not even considered an aveira in KJ. It is just something the Satmar Rebbe Z"L asked us not to do. You also of course realize that not everyone in KJ fits into just one category.

As I said in my last post, obviously driving is not an aveira. My previous post was in no way meant to be disrespectful or ignorant. I practically live in KJ and have a tremendous amount of respect for the community and of course I know that there are many different types of people here. I asked sevensenses for her input on this question because she is Satmar and lives here. Not only that but I know her. I in general do not like to come to conclusions on my own about people and love to learn about ppl other than me to better understand them. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Quite different than someone I know who come to me and tells me how Frei Lubavitch is because she sees all the girls dressing in such an untznius manner (she is not a Satmar) I love the exchange of ideas and was just trying to learn a bit more about the chinuch here, it would not be a awful thing if we all understood eachother better.
