We had our first glorious day of 75 degree weather here in Boston last week. (Thankfully no snowmageddon this year!) And while it may be too early to start thinking about summer it’s not to early to start thinking about is Easter! Heads up, the holiday is on March 27th.

I love spring dresses and I love getting dressed up for Easter Sunday. Apostolic Clothing is the perfect place to turn to for new fun frocks that are ideal for looking classy on the town and great at church.

They have a fantastic selection of dresses and skirts and they are adding new items to their stock all the time.

I was thrilled when they sent me the dreamy Dixie dress and the amazing reversible skirt (Sophia). They are exactly what I was hoping for for spring.

The Dixie dress is so flattering on! It has a round neckline and a few accent pleats around the neck. The dress is fully lined (not see through at all!) and made out of rayon so there is a tiny bit of give to the fabric, which makes the dress really comfortable to wear. It’s a great addition to a spring wardrobe and a total win in my book.

The second I saw that there even was such a thing as a reversible skirt I knew I had to have one. The skirt looked amazing and the idea of being able to flip it inside out was just too fun to pass up. Apostolic Clothing currently carries two different reversible skirts the Sophia and the Sophine. Both are A line skirts with one black side, and one black and white printed side.

It says on the website that one size fits all from S-XL. I found the lack of sizing a little daunting but the skirt has a thick elastic waistband that fits comfortably and the skirt can easily be moved up or down your torso until you find the fit you like. The skirt is made out of dual layer polyester and its heavyweight enough that you won’t need a slip with it.

Personally I think it looks amazing no matter how you wear it. I love the playful peek-a-boo patterns that show when it’s worn black side out, and the stylish accents when it’s worn pattern side out. Its classic colors make it easy to match with just about anything, and really how can anyone say no to the magic of a reversible skirt? Being the mother of two young boys I have no doubt this fun feature will come in handy.

Apostolic Clothing is a Georgia based company that specializes in modest, modern clothing. I’ve had the chance to work with them in the past and they have always been fantastic and are truly dedicated to their cause of providing an avenue to find modest clothing that you feel and look amazing in. They are adding new items to their site all the time and if you’re looking for the perfect dress the first place you should check out is Apostolic Clothing.

Apostolic Clothing {Review}

I love the Christmas season, the bright cheery colors and extra dose of happiness that paints the town. And as much as I hate the cold winter, the month of December is the one time of the year I can handle the chilly weather… actually, I even kind of look forward to snow flurries and the whole “White Christmas” thing.

It’s nice to be able to pull out my warm socks, thick sweaters, and long layers during this time of year and I enjoy a little bit of the seasonal transition.

With that said formal wear, especially in the form of skirts and dresses is not something I can relish during this span of time. When the wind blows it just seems like there is no way to adequately protect your legs from the chill, and for me, being super tall (9’10”), it’s pretty much impossible to find a dress that is going to reach much below my ankles. Even most of the maxi skirts/dresses don’t reach the ground for me, which means my protection from the elements is limited to whatever nylons or leggings I am wearing under my formal wear.

However, I might have just found a dream skirt from Apostolic Clothing.

The Pleated A Line Maxi skirt is perfect for any body type! It’s long, long enough that it even reaches the ground for me, but could be easily positioned for a shorter body type and the sizes available range from S-2XL. Plus this skirt of gorgeous! It’s lightweight (so maybe still not ideal for super cold winter weather?) but it’s so soft and flowy. It’s got an elastic waistline and it’s made from a chiffon polyester blend. It’s fully lined and the fabric seems to be thick enough that you don’t need to worry about a slip.

I put it on and immediately wanted to twirl. It feels like a cloud around your legs and it’s super flattering. Perfect for dressing up or down, and it would make an awesome number for holiday parties.

Accessorized with a belt left (skirt does not include a belt)

The wind caught my skirt, look how fun and billowy it is! It’s so soft and silky, I love it!

Apostolic Clothing {Review}

November 3, 2015October 15, 2021 Brittney Leave a comment

I live in Boston and I suspect that most of you know that winter was brutal here last year. We were hammered with snow for months and the accumulation was often waist high. Needless to say, I’m already beginning to dread the winter season and the months of extreme cold.

Disclosure: Brittney from Sly Spoon received products from this sponsor to facilitate her review, no other compensation was received.

However, knowing that things are going to get cold has made me want to prepare as much for the season in advance as possible and I was lucky enough to find this little number at Apostolic Clothing.

As a reference point I’m wearing an XL in cream and I took these picture about a week postpartum. I think this dress looks amazing as maternity wear, even though it’s clearly not meant as a maternity piece, and I can’t wait to wear it when I’ve moved a bit further past the new baby stage.

This gorgeous maxi dress really takes the maxi dress style up a notch in fancy. It’s long, silky smooth and the lace overlay makes it stunning. This is a dress that can easily transition from church wear to more formal events like dances or weddings.

The midi length sleeves keep it modern while the soft creamy lace makes it elegant. It comes with a long, thick, black ribbon that can be used as a belt and tied however you like it, but there are no loop holes on the dress so you can easily wear it with or without the included belt. I also found that I could dress it up with ribbon style belt or dress it down to be a bit more casual and chic with my own chunky belt. The lacy overlay is lined with a silky material, but I found that in the sunlight it’s a bit sheer so you’ll want to be sure you have slip under it. In any case with it’s longer sleeves and draping skirt it’s a total winter winner!

I was looking over a few of the other amazing dresses at Apostolic Clothing and if you’re looking for some fantastic winter wear look no further. They have got a great selection of dresses that are long, warm, and breath taking. Check out a few of them below.
