"Maybe it started after my husband and I binged watched Downtown Abbey,
but I began to feel a desire to dress better for Mass. I remember a
friend telling me that in Indian culture, people try to dress their best
out of respect for others. If I were to dress for a job interview, or
meet a member of the British Royal Family, I would be scouring the
Internet and mall for the perfect dress. Why was I not putting forth
more effort to meet with the King of Heaven and Earth each Sunday?
"Around the same time, I stumbled upon a Catholic stylist and blogger, Meghan Ashley Sokolowski.
She writes on the latest fashion trends, makes suggestions about what
to wear on Catholic feast days, and ties in relevant details about
saints . What really caught my eye was the free downloadable fashion
checklist that I decided to use as a guide to refurbish my wardrobe.
Meghan and I ended up emailing after I contacted her with a question
about purses."
In a recent commentary, writer Leslie Fain reflected on some things she learned from working with this Catholic stylist (including everyone has a personal style, waiting to be uncovered and cultivated).
