   From Theresa Phillips
 
I love fashion style and grace...
Every year I get a bit older and I know that their are challenge especially when you are as public as I am..( I whisper HELP a lot!)
I not only Pastor a church but I travel across the nation ministering.
Each place I  attend does require some protocol SO..one point i didnt do as the leader asked  and I repented ... Nor was i ever asked back.
 
 Now I always ask what is the dress code and I comply..
Recently I was the keynote speaker in several meetings in one state then... to go on to a another state to attend meetings..
The two venues were vastly different
I had to take extra clothing but it was worth it
I also do something that may seem odd...
I carry change of clothing for several reasons
1 perspiration can lead to soiled clothing..that's a no no in the pulpit
2 The Apostle Paul carried handkerchiefs for the anoint to be transferred ...
many times the anoint shifts and i cant duplicate it so i change my garments
3 when you look well you feel well and the truth is this you are treated well
 
As for hair... well I have been on the quest for years  I am finally finding a style that works for me ... it takes time but its worth the wait ...hair changes as you mature.. so make the changes with grace but dont be afraid to be stylish a womans hair is her glory....
 
Just for fun

After Conversion to Christ, Former Victoria Secret Model on Mission to Help Young Girls

"There are so many 'secrets' out there that promise to put your life on the best path. I tried them all, but only one worked: Putting my faith in God." -Nicole Weider

Nicole WeiderNicole Weider was a model in Hollywood for many years who, after seeing first-hand the vanity of the business and knowing in her heart she wanted more than that for her life, was set on a path that led her to Christ. (Photo: Nicole Weider)

"The whole industry was so fake and superficial," she said, noting that she stopped doing lingerie ads, such as Victoria's Secret, because she "felt like a piece of meat" doing them.

Now, according to a Christian Post report, Weider only does modeling jobs she feels do not compromise her Christian values.

She has also started a website called Project Inspired which serves as a venue for Weider to be a positive role model for young girls so that they don't "abuse their bodies, dress more provocatively, and behave immorally because that's what society promotes."

Click on the link provided to find out more about her website and other ventures, such as her "anti-Cosmo" campaign, as well as watch Weider on a video sharing her convictions.
