when you take modest a step too far....

So I was having a conversation with my good friend Katie the other night, and we were talking about what we wear running, and how modest it is. See we both ran track and cross country (I did it because it doesn’t require too much coordination) in high school, and when you're running in the heat of Phoenix or the humidity of Minnesota, the most you’re going to do is short shorts and a tank top. And that’s what I still wear, even though it’s cold and foggy out here and my legs turn all red and splotchy. Anyways while we were on the topic of modesty, I remembered a really really funny link that I got in one of my daily candy emails. Daily Candy tells you all about new fun places to eat, boutiques to shop at, trends, etc…so when I saw “A Modest Proposal” an email about modest swimwear, I thought, cool, maybe they have some cute retro suits. But this is what I saw when I followed the link:



I pictured myself laying out in my parent’s backyard in phoenix, in 110 degree weather and totally BAKING in one of these! More power to the modest people in the world who are willing to wear stuff like this, but if I saw someone wearing this, I'm not going to lie, I'd be a little freaked out.
