MoMoMod is now composed of two contributing mommies–Tiffany and Misha! I wanted to honor both of these ladies today. This post will feature questions as answered by Misha. Happy Mother’s Day, Misha! 1. As a child how did you picture yourself as a mother? How have your views about motherhood changed over the years? I [...]

 

 

Tiffany: Modest Skirt Sew Along (It Is Finished!)

Read more
 

I am happy to announce that I have completed my skirt! While finishing the waistband I was reminded of a comment left on my initial post. The lovely reader, Melinda, mentioned a flat waistband in the front with an elastic back….a brilliant yet simple solution. My entire waistband is still elastic but I sewed accordion [...]

 

 

Mommy Hobbies: What's the new beautiful?

Read more
 

Oh, the stinking media.  How it has twisted our perception of beauty, women, womanhood…socially acceptable behavior.  Who knows how we’re supposed to act anymore??  I tend to go back to the Bible, personally, or Godly women in my life and pattern myself after them. However, one aspect of beauty that seems to slip by is [...]

 

 

 

Sunday Best:

Read more
 

I had to run some wedding errands yesterday (I had to see if a wedding dress I saw online was the one I wanted–it was!) and before going to my appointment I stopped at Forever 21. I honestly can’t stand being in that store. I typically make my F21 purchases online or early in the [...]

 

Mommy Hobbies: The importance of patience

Read more
 

I am thoroughly convinced that patience is the ultimate superpower of Christianity.  If you have patience, you can deal with difficult people, impossible situations, you name it, you can pull through it — if you have patience. Growing up, I was taught that praying for patience was like asking for a good burger with a [...]

 

 

 

Mommy Hobbies: Distaster? Be prepared. Proverbs 31 style

Read more
 

My last post received a lot of attention, so happy! It gave all of MoMoMod’s faithful readers a little more insight as to who I am. I cover a lot of easy MIY (make it yourself) home supply recipes, cooking recipes and decorative projects on my blog. I’m also, highly, *cough cough* highly opinionated But, [...]

 

Resurrection Sunday Best: so I've been...

Read more
 

wanting to buy an asymmetrical skirt (aka high-low hem) since December, but couldn’t find one with a high hem that was low enough. All of the skirts I found had super short high hems. I found the one I’m wearing at Kohl’s for $9.80 (reg. price $48) and the cashier gave me an extra 20% [...]

 

Why I Don't Think Modest is Hottest

Read more
 

I started MoMoMod back in March of 2010 and I never set out to change readers’ definitions of modesty. Modesty means different things to different people. I wrote about my personal standards/convictions regarding modesty here, but here’s a brief recap and refresher (it has been awhile): I am Apostolic Pentecostal. As far as organizations go [...]

 

Tiffany: Modest Skirt Sew Along (Draft your pattern)

Read more
 

So, let’s get this modest skirt sew along started! The most important part of this process is drafting a pattern. I had to study the book Sew What! Skirts and plan, plan, plan. It’s not very difficult to understand, but it does require concentration and a little problem solving.  I will give you an overview of the [...]

Modest Fashion: 5 Black Wardrobe Staples You Need to Own

Read more
 

Nix what Marie Claire or Glamour magazine have told you. You don’t need a faux fur vest, bright yellow neon pumps, or a ______ to complete your closet. I love my faux fur vest and own several pairs of shoes in brightly colored hues. I don’t, however, wear my faux fur vest and pink heels [...]

 

Mommy Hobbies: Proverbs 31 Woman and Stuff I'll Never Buy Again

Read more
 

As much as I’d like to think I’m living a Proverbs 31 lifestyle, I fall short.  Waaayyyy short.  My childhood was filled with Proverbs 31 women; you know the kind — waking up with praises on their lips to Lord, a kind face, gentle, soft answers to all the irritations around them, seamstresses, fabulous cooks, [...]

 

Sunday Best: Austenland Hair Accessories and Giveaway

Read more
 

Rain! Is it raining in your neck of the woods today? Rain has pelted Central California and I couldn’t be happier. We haven’t seen much rain around these parts, and rain is most definitely necessary for food to grow. Central California (well, many parts of California) is home to grapes, peaches, almonds, alfalfa, oranges, and [...]

 

Modest Beauty: Meet Kendra

Read more
 

One of the nice things about blogging is the ability to converse and “network” with people who have similar interests as you. While Kendra and I haven’t officially met, we have mutual friends, and I have a feeling that we’d get along quite well “in real life”. Kendra blogs about natural hair here; I admire [...]

 

 

 

Sunday Best: Vintage Polka Dots

We had a bit of a hiccup with the blog this week. Apparently the server that hosts MoMoMod got h a c k e d and when readers would visit the blog they would be redirected to other unpleasant websites. Eek! It looks like everything is well now. Back to our regularly scheduled broadcast(ing)! Brandon [...]

Good Friday to all! This last week I got the opportunity to try out the Halftee, and oh-my-gosh! They are genius! I had heard about this product before, but never thought I would get the chance to review one. Tami from Half-Tee was gracious enough to send the halftee of my choice over for me to review. There [...]
