Please list some good online stores where I can find tznius dresses for my 16 year old. We've struck out in the stores where we live. She doesn't like anything. Sigh.

This season is particularly difficult for teens IMHO. A lot of the styles are just not age appropriate and a lot of the patterns are just ugly. I wish I knew a website too because we haven't been successful in the stores.

Thanks! Any other suggestions?

She won't consider anything from Yakira Bella for no good reason at all

We were in Junees today and she didn't even find one thing she was willing to try on.

The other 2 suggestions in the Junees post are very far from the style in our area.

I'm making DD sound like a horribly picky teen. Really, she's fine with whatever is already in her closet and I'm the one insisting she gets something new for YT and an upcoming simcha. She hates shopping and doesn't want to buy anything new unless she loves it. I should appreciate that she's not the one complaining that she has nothing to wear with a closet full of clothes, but I really want her to update her wardrobe a bit.

She may also be saying that she doesn't like anything because she doesn't want anything new right now.

Is there a particular reason you feel like you need to keep pushing her?

Her dresses are not just from last year, they're from two years ago. They still fit because she hasn't really grown, but some of them are showing some wear. Plus we had a family simcha two years ago to which she already wore these dresses. I would like her to get something new for the next simcha in the same family that she can also wear for YT.

She sounds a little like me. I wore a lot of the same clothes from high school until I had kids and my body changed too much to keep them. I really liked the clothes I had, and usually thought (and still think!) a lot of clothes are ugly and poorly made. They look nice on other people. I'm just picky about me.

Have you talked with her about style? What she likes might just be a very different look, and it might be worth looking for a store that works for that style instead of just taking her to a store and hoping she finds something.

Maybe talk with her about a dress for an upcoming simcha? and getting the clothes that are growing shabby out? (Though if a seamstress can fix them, might be worth a try).
