Synopsis

Some of the deepest questions of women’s hearts are about beauty: an innate desire to decorate ourselves and our surroundings, and the struggle to feel beautiful. But these desires are often in direct conflict with values and beliefs that tell us fashion (or any form of creativity) is frivolous and vain, and may actually be a sin.Jeanette Johnson, founder of popular style blog J’s Everyday Fashion, shares her personal journey and the stories of other women, examining how we can best explore our quest for beauty while still honoring our faith and personal values and being responsible consumers. Jeanette delves into topics that many women grapple with: Is fashion selfish? Is it necessary? Does it dishonor our faith? With an in-depth look at issues like healthy self-esteem, modesty, and how fashion fits into the big picture, Jeanette offers practical, thoughtful insight, guiding every woman to conquer her fashion guilt and achieve “personal style with purpose.”

This book definitely approaches fashion from a Christian worldview (the title makes it obvious, and if that offends you, skip this one).

Quotes

“Her section on modesty is a highlight, as she picks apart the need to be both confident and humble—a tricky balance. She also writes eloquently on the perils of overvaluing money and ways to be a responsible fashion consumer. Johnson is an uplifting guide…[she] succeeds in her aim to set other Christian women free from false guilt stemming from a natural desire for beauty and self-affirmation.”—Publishers Weekly“J’s vulnerability in this book is refreshing. I love all of her and her friends’ real-life stories. I could relate to several. J taught me a lot through [this] book as well as challenged me in my fashion and faith.” —Whitney Miller, season 1 winner of MasterChef and cookbook author“This book is surprising in its depth, moving beyond Bible verses to theological reflection on art and beauty and their place in daily life… A welcome exploration of fashion and faith.”—Booklist
