“As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.”
King James Version (KJV)

Proverbs 11:22
This verse is describing the lack of inner beauty which is a virtuous and discreet character in a woman.
Appearances verses: Deut. 22:5;
1 Timothy 2:9 and Proverbs 31:22.
Our inner beauty is important to God. I suggest reading Beautiful in God's Eyes by Elizabeth George.

I think you are right. It is how you want to appear to others. I don't see a thing wrong with a short tennis skirt. It's practical.

Deuteronomy 22:5
The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
1 Timothy 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array
Matthew 5:27-28
Says that if a man looks on a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery with her already in his heart;
How we dress matters to the Lord. At home with your husband, that is private between you both.

Need a lesson on length of dresses or skirts. Will I be judged on my length of skirt or dress. Something is telling me it's the length of the skirt it's the way you appear yourself . Help me out please

a beautiful woman who is void of virtue,self control,discretion and common sense is as a dirty pig with fine jewelry in his snout.
