    My father and brother once came to shul to pick me up from a shiur (they didn’t want me walking home in the dark), there was a little bit of a misunderstanding and my father went inside the shul but I thought he was meeting me outside….anyway, 3 little boys came up to me and said “2 goyim just walked into shul!” referring to my father and brother. I was extremely hurt and I remember crying when I got home. I didn’t really blame the kids because they were young, but the parents really should teach their children that all Jews are different and have different style of dress etc-plus it’s not very nice to openly stare at people!

    I love coming home from school and look forward to reading everyones answers!!!!! I think my mom gets that I’ve been wearing tights these past couple of days and she casually asked me if I was getting warm in them and I downplayed it A LOT and my mom said “whatever makes you happy!”!!! But bez”H my parents will come to tolerate it! SO…..THANKS SO MUCH GUYS FOR THE TIPS!!!!

    Ps! Do any of the ladies have a COMFORTABLE recommendation for tights and the color they wear? I can’t seem to find any comfy tights or a color that’s act visible when wearing them!

    Have a BEAUTIFUL shavuot!!!!!

    brotherofurs-YOU ARE SOO SPECIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best of luck on your AMAZING endeavor AHHH so excited for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sorry that I’m asking super duper amounts of questions, but does anyone have an issue/objection/argument with wearing dresses in the summer but no tights? So the dress would be covering ur whole leg but you’d be wearing sneakers/flats underneath! Slash what’s the issue with patterned tights? I’ve seen in the store cool printed tights!

    Hope everyone has a beautiful Shabbos kodesh 😀 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Seriously everyone thank you beyond WORDS!!!! Keep on rocking and bringing nachas to the Borei Olam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All your advice has really been helping me!

    Baal Boose-thank you for all those helpful tips!! I’ll try them out if the situation presents itself bli neder!!! In regards to your question-I’m in an all girls school so bH not around guys!!

    Observanteen-thank you so much for that beautiful bracha!

    Whatelseisleft-Yasher koach to your friend!! I hope she continues to grow closer to Hashem through her tznius and gradually is able to come to terms with the pace that she is able to work on new areas in her yahadus!!

    Yatzmich-thanks for the advice!

    brotherofurs-SUCH hasgacha pratis that you commented on this thread!! I’m so happy to hear of your mother’s acceptance!!! Your teachers advice seems great! I’m super happy that your camp makes you wear tights!! I’m working at a modern camp so the girls unfortunately don’t have a tznius dress code to abide to but there will be some frum counselors to be around with so hopefully it won’t be TOO bad!

    I called my rebbetzin today and she told me that if I personally feel comfortable starting I should! But I shouldn’t make a neder to wear each day, rather each day take it slowly and say “today I’m going to wear…” then the next day “today I’m going to wear…” etc etc!

    I never thought I’d actually get answers, it means THE WORLD to me that everyone is taking time out of their day to lend their opinions!!!!

    commonsense-my mom is supportive about the way I dress, and so is my father but sometimes our ideas tend not to match up! Like I wear light cardigans and sweaters and everyone thinks I’m dressing like it’s winter! But I’m totally comfy and I don’t feel so warm in them!

    A Heimishe Mom-thank you so much for that advice!

    Gefen-I have a Rebbetzin to talk to but not really a Morah figure. Does that make sense? For halachot I go to my rebbetzin but for chizuk I just tend to read random posts on the coffee room/browse online! Jolly rancher-thanks for those words, you rock!

    apushatayid- I haven’t really talked to that Morah since last summer so I don’t know how to just out of the blue call her again!

    oomis1105-Wow thanks soo much!!! You’re totally right about gradual change! Sorry I’m so talkitive and my posts are extremely long but I just wanted to thank ALL of you!!!!!!! Amazing people you all are!

    OMGosh thank u so much for all your ideas yay!! That sounds like some amazing advice! I was talking to a Morah once who told me that she didn’t really start wearing them until seminary and that I should wait 3 more years, but it feels weird to me. I mean, since I’ve been wearing them throughout the winter my legs feel bare now and I get really embarrassed. I don’t wanna freak out my parents so I’m scared to bring it up. In regards to “bpt”‘s answer-I just graduated ninth grade now so I think the seminary idea may be amazing when I’m a junior/senior 😀

    I’ve also been browsing through some of the previous tznius threads and everyone seems to be in disagreement over what color they have to be, how thick, shiny, not shiny. How do you know which person to follow? If I’m just starting do I follow the strictest opinion?

    Sorry these posts are long >.<
