Kmart

When I think of Kmart- cute clothes do not immediatly cross my mind
However, I am delighted to show you some cute pieces I found while searching
If you have one if your area- stop by and see what they have


39.99
My sister is headed to Argentina and was mentioning she needed boots
They will be hard to find until the fall clothes come out (give it a few weeks)
I love this style of boot- not the most comfortable to walk miles in, but really look polished
Pair with any color tights (brown with black are actually in style)
44.99
I hate cold, wet feet
Here are some cute feminine boots to keep you warm during the winter
and to keep you from slipping on ice
15.99
I have mentioned colorful necklaces in past posts
I think this one is great
It doesn't look expensive and has enough of a color range to go with many outfits
Make sure your jewelry is not too trendy or flashy
The second someone comments on your clothes/ accessories you have already distracted from your message
9.98
Cheap workout shirt
Make sure you order a size up so you don't feel awkward working out around elders


14.99
This pants look so comfy and are not too form fitting

17.99
Any visitor center sisters or any sisters giving tours of the chapel (such a great idea), you will want to look professional. I love this blazer, the neckline is interesting and different from other traditional styles
19.99
You all know how much I love elastic waisted skirts
Pair with any shirt (even tucked in) you can even add a colorful skinny belt around the waist to hide any waistband
6.98
I loved Kmart's camp shirts
All sisters need a white button down
This can go under cardigans, blazers and sweaters without adding bulk


I have had a request for a post on watches-
that will be coming soon
Any other requests email me at

Also- my husband came up with a catch phrase
"Dress like a fashionista, serve like a hermanita"
he thought he was pretty creative :)

I did a quick look through of JCP and found some cute stuff
This week they have an EXTRA 25% off sale stuff in store
I got a dress for $15
Always go out to shop around holidays

I love this top
it's high enough you don't need an undershirt
it covers your upper arms
and it is patterned and can be layered with jackets or sweaters

For those who want more traditional shirts
I love this because you modernize the traditional button down by adding a cute belt
you look pulled together but also your age

14.99
This specific shirt is a plus size, but it is also available in regular and petites
I love this shirt
when you are tracting and sweating a ton- you want a t shirt and this one is perfect

Asos part2

                                         Here are a couple more of my favorites from Asos
30.55
Your watch will be your best friend on your mission
you might say "oh, I'll use the cell phone"
Don't rely on that, you may not have one or the senior companion may always be carrying it
Plus, this watch is a fantastic way to get in some great floral print
30.55
This t shirt would be great for tracting on a hot day 
you don't have to wear an undershirt
it's made of easy care fabric in case you don't have a washing machine
Tuck into a black skirt and throw your hair in a low bun (top knots don't scream sis missionary)
put on a cute red, purple or yellow necklace
BAM- you are let into every door you knock:)
42.43
Every sister missionary has a white button down
why not add some personality with the cute scallop detail on the collar?
54.30
I like this shirt for the longer sleeves and high neckline
The detail around the neck really dresses up the outfit without adding too much bulk
this may also be a great option for bustier girls
plus, this color would look great with any color skirt (black, grey, navy, brown etc)
35.64
Cardigans will be your best friend if you are headed to an area with cooler weather
layering will be your best friend
this cardigan is just the right color with some great detail to dress it up

Asos

Asos is relatively new in the America fashion scene
They have so many options- and you really have to search for the modest ones
Plus side: free shipping both ways!
47.52
Every missionary will need a black skirt
the length and fullness of this skirt is great for walking and bike riding
50.91
Do not be afraid of color as a missionary
Mustard is one of my favorites and goes with than you think
pair this will a simple shirt tucked in or pair with a great sweater
28.00

This skirt is actually linen
Linen is a great light weight fabric but does wrinkle easier
Wrinkles won't matter much with the fullness of this skirt
love the tie detail at the waist to give you some shape
