Elegance and Modesty
By: Shanice D. Coombs
It is a fact that the most precious jewels
are always hidden. Diamonds are hidden in the earth’s mantle, pearls are
enclosed in a clam at the bottom of the ocean and gold may be found in hard
rock or soil debris.
God has called us his precious jewels but do
we believe that? If we do, then it is high time we begin covering the beautiful
assets he has blessed us with. Beyoncé said “if you got it, flaunt it”; I say
put an end to that! If you respect it, cover it!
Think about it, when you see a woman dressed
with Kim and Kimone (her breasts) or her cheeks outside, the first thing that
comes to mind isn't elegance. I often feel pity towards them because I assume
they don't know their true value. It also draws unnecessary attention, whether
you want it or not.
Finally, always remember that your dressing
tells a little about your character so what introduction are you giving when
you walk the streets?
The next time you're gonna put on that
‘little black dress’ or getting dressed for a banquet or even wearing ‘regular’
clothes, remember: Modesty is the ultimate form of Elegance.
