How do you dress and what do you consider modest?

One of the hardest things for a Christian girl is dressing modestly but cute!! It drives me nuts!!!! This is how I dress...
Pants:
When they are shorts:I wear short shorts but not exagerately short
long: not too tight, but not totally baggy and loose either
Skirts:
I don't wear mini skirts nor the ones that reach your ankles I wear ones that are just above the knee.
Shirts and blouses: Never shirts that totally look painted on nor totally loose or exagerately huge T-shirts. The blouses never show even the tiniest part of my breasts nor do they show my whole back!! They never show my tummy but they aren't exagerately long either.

Bathing suits:
I wear bikini top with shorts.

In your opinion is this modest enough?

I hear from guys they say even the bikini-top is too much.

I also hear guys are a super sucker for long skirts

Example, my brother and I were at the fair watching people pass.
A coupla girl's walked by wearing bikini tops and shorts (odd same clothing)
He made a coughing sound and I teased him saying "good-looking girl's hmm?"
He shook his head and looked away and said "girl like that turn me way off, I prefer the ballroom gowns, girls look so much better"

lol i prefer very modest! in my opionion lol

shorts:below the knees...following a bible verses
skirts:below the knee and some times to the ankles lol
i always were baggy clothes never tight!but i hate them overly baggy lol
bathing suit:i never wear a bikini i wear a one piece with something over that! lol

That's modest -- and virtuous too! God bless you!

Shorts: Not too short, but above the knee
Trousers: Anything that's comfy really
Skirts: 3 inches above the knee at most, and with shorts underneath
Tops: Nothing "showing", not too tight
Swimwear: Tankini - top reaches roughly to belly button, and shorts on the bottom

I try not to wear anything that could "cause my brothers to sin" (and I mean guys, as opposed to my actual brothers... *Ugh!*) My boyfriend and I have an agreement that if I wear anything that makes him lust etc., then he'll tell me and I'll change and not wear it anymore.
I aim for modest and comfortable. I.e. in the heat it's not sensible to wear long sleeves, but I wouldn't walk around in one of those triangle bikini tops...

It is hard to find cute,modest clothing,but it's worth the look.Don't lower your standards for modesty just because it's not very available.

Pants: I usualy wear to tight not to loose..
Skirts: I wear usually 2-3 inches below my knee.
Shirts: I never wear sleavless shirts or anything.. I usually keep them pretty loose
bathing suit: I wear a tankini but it goes past my stomech so u can never see anything
shorts: I dont wear shorts i wear capris

I think thats pretty modest?? heh,

My guy friends say the same things!

Okay, I probably dress the most conservitive of any one on this board; but I guess it's just that I AM WILLING to go to extremes in order not to cause a young man to stumble.

It's like my friend told me; "You have gotta be careful; you have too goood of a body to show it!" Odd statement I know; but somewhat true.

Pants: Only really loose slacks; for really dressy occasions.
Shorts: never wear them.
Skirts: At least 2 inches below the knee; loose, and splits no higher than the knee.
Blouse: ALWAYS very loose; unrevealing; and not clingy.
Swimsuit: I bought a modest one off the internet. It has a built in sarong skirt, and a higher neck top.

I've had a few guys thank me for the way I dress. They told me that I would never know what they went throught when a girl with a extra tight shirt walked in; or a pair of short shorts.

Well I only use the bikini top and shorts for the beach and swimming pools and stuff and it's only if I'm with my parents. If I'm not I wear a T-shirt over it. But I would never wear a bikini top for a fair or walking around the mall or something. My dad rates my outfits and he tells me what would make a guy think lustfully and I just change.
For example yesterday Joshua was coming over and I wore short shorts but not the jean material and a T-shirt and before Joshua arrived he told me to change my pants and I did. When I wear jean shorts my dad doesn't tell me to change!! He just knows since he's a man. It didn't make sense to me yesterday but he must know what he's talking about!!
