As the mother of 3 girls, in a society that sexualizes even the youngest of girls, I was eager to read this book. Rachel Lee Carter is a model who has decided to make a mark, by NOT being like the scantily clad models that we all too often see gracing the covers of our magazines.
Ladies, you can be beautiful while you're covered. If a model can do it, so can you! Rachel presents her own thoughts on being modest all while being fashionable and gives us some insight from young men and how they feel about the matter. The opinions from the young men in this book really impressed me. Not all guys are looking for "one thing" and in fact many find it more attractive when they meet women who aren't baring it all. It is an easy read, but yet gives you a lot to think about in the process. She shares a good amount of scripture to show how God views modesty for his daughters and each chapter has a "What Do You Say" section for reflection. At the end of the book, there is a section that can be used over the span of 45 days as you read each chapter for more intensive study.
I will be using this book with my pre-teen girls to help reinforce what we've already set up as guidelines for our family on the issue of modesty. I really appreciate Rachel's direct, to the point account and how she shows that you can be beautiful, successful and modest all at the same time. A must read for anyone who feels a conviction to dress in a manner more befitting that of a daughter of the Most High King.
