Hey girls! We are SO excited to finally be posting the first segment of our 2016 Q&A video series! First off, thank you so much for contributing your questions to this series: it means so much to us! And because you all asked so many wonderful questions, we have reserved a few of the deeper questions that deserve a more in-depth video of their own for another time. So, without further ado, check out the first installment: Fashion!
Could any of you relate to our answers?

11/04/2016 at 12:04 PMOh, how fun that was! And I can 100% relate to jean skirts with bloomers. Let’s not forget the cowboy boots and tennis shoes for footwear 🙂 Hurrah homeschool fashion!

11/04/2016 at 12:11 PMYou girls look adorable!! I love your hair, Charlotte? How did you curl it? And Jessica cut her hair! That’s so exciting ?
Can’t wait for the next video!
Blessings,
Mary

11/08/2016 at 12:53 PMHi Mary!
Well, no, I didn’t cut my hair. This video was actuallydone just a little while ago. I dressed my hair in a more early 30s style that day. The majority of my hair is in a bun in the back, and I did finger waves on the sides. I left my hair very loose around my face, thus giving the allusion that was so common in the early 30s when women didn’t want to cut their hair into a bob, that it is actually short. 🙂
Love,
Jessica, the Eldest Sister

11/08/2016 at 2:05 PMOh! It’s a very pretty style, though! Maybe you can do a tutorial for it .? I would love to try it.

11/04/2016 at 1:11 PMOhhh, this was so fun! I can definitely relate to both Brigid’s and Charlotte’s answers to the question about your wardrobe changing… my own style has evolved over time. I guess you could say that I went from really not thinking about what I was wearing much (jeans and t-shirts or sweatshirts, occasional sweaters or blouses) to the very homeschool-esque look of denim or khaki skirts and t-shirts or blouses and cardigans, and now I would say that my style is very free… unlike my earlier years, I pay attention to what I wear (in moderation, of course), but I do include jeans an drew more modern pieces like Charlotte does. But I love having a vintage or old-fashioned twist to my clothing, so I include a lot of lace or ruffled blouses, knit cardigans, ballet flats, ribbons in my hair, locket necklaces, and floral patterns. My style is a mixture of modern, feminine, and classic, with a vintage flair, but it is a subtle flair. I loooove the Edwardian era like Brigid does, so I definitely endeavor for that flair at times, too.
Looking so forward to the next Q+A video!
Love you gals!

11/04/2016 at 5:04 PMSome great questions answered. I’m intrigued as to the deeper questions, I will look forward to hearing your responses. It’s so lovely to see how much you girls have matured into young women. Your styles have all evolved, although I think Jessica’s style is the most vintage. Of course I don’t see what she wears every day, but her blog outfits have been beautifully vintage. And that hair, Jessica! You have so much talent.

11/04/2016 at 7:34 PMSo fun to watch! Like Brigid, I couldn’t give up a certain pair of Boots, although mine are far less stylish than her lace ups!
And I, too, receive strange looks sometimes because I only wear skirts. This doesn’t sound like anything unusual, but in my rural farming town (where people wear PJs to the grocery store!), it is quite the sight. Funny story: I have an a-lined denim maxi skirt and was wearing it with a zip up hooded sweater when I was asked by a friend where I’m going ‘all dressed up’!!

11/05/2016 at 11:37 AMLooking forward to seeing the rest of the Q&A! Re: getting looks in public– do you think it’s easier to dress more unusually because you have sisters with you who wear similar clothes? Like, do you think that if you were spending a lot of time out and about by yourself, would it be less comfortable for you to dress ‘outside of the norm’? Now that I am an older teen and I do more things on my own, I do think I might be a little more self-conscious about wearing “odd” things. Versus when I was younger and a friend/sibling and I were both sporting a homeschooler-esque look together or something along those lines. It could also just be an age thing, because when you’re younger you tend to care less about how you look. I don’t think my clothes are that strange but I often do go for a little more of an old-fashioned flair with long skirts and such, which is not super common for girls around our age. So, sometimes I do receive some stares or comments as well.

11/05/2016 at 3:41 PMHi there young ladies,
Okay here are my questions. Sorry that was more than I meant to ask but they just kept coming to mind. : D
So here goes…
Do you girls like to square or line dance or any other type?
At what age were you allowed to get your drivers license?
What fabric stores do you like to go to?
What clothing stores do you like?
Did you ever belong to any homeschool groups if so what were they?
What was/is your favorite school subject?
What is your favorite book (not including the bible)?
Have you ever considered giving sewing classes?
Well so many more things I could ask but I guess that is too many already. : )
Thanks for your time,
Grace

11/05/2016 at 11:06 PMThis was super fun getting to know more about your fashion choices and loves!
And yes, I can totally relate to your “homeschooler” style 😉 I didn’t do the denim skirt thing, but I had plenty of strange t-shirt, flip flop and peasant skirt combinations! I look back on it now, and shudder, but am also glad that I had that time when I was young, to be unconcerned with fashion, and be able to fully enjoy it now.

11/10/2016 at 12:21 PMCharlotte, your hair looks great in the longer length!
And I have to say that this was a lot of fun to listen to and watch. I can definitely identify with the homeschooler “look”.
