If you’ve gone shopping for a dress lately you may have noticed something… namely, that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to buy a dress that isn’t cut up to here or down to there or requires a fancy bra or can’t be worn with any bra at all. Ahem.
So what’s a modest gal to do? Well, you might start by checking out MikaRose, your online destination for fashionable clothing that will make you feel modern and pretty without ever venturing into immodest territory. One lucky Want Not reader is going to win a $60 gift certificate to MikaRose—enough to cover one of their dresses and shipping.
Want to win it? Of course you do! First go review the contest rules and regulations, then come on back here and leave a comment on this post by 11:59 p.m. Eastern (that’s 8:59 p.m. Pacific) on Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010, telling me which dress you like best to be entered. Winner to be determined by random number generation and fashion sense. (Except that really, just the random number thing.)
Who doesn’t want a pretty new dress for Spring? No one I know. It could be you, so go ahead and enter.
Ready? Go!
I could use a new dress. Pretty please number generator!
Oh, such a tough decision. They are all so cute! If I have to pick, I’m going with the Lindsay.

Love the Christine dress! I desperately need new clothes!
Ooh, I’m liking Emily…
Glad you’re feeling better to run such a great contest!
I would love a new dress. I have been losing weight along with you and now my dresses don’t fit anymore.
Okely dokely, I read the directions THIS time. And yes, I have always been quite modest (some would say a prude, but I’m much too pervy for that).
I had a hard time deciding, but I like the “Alice” dress, it looks so cool for summer!
I like Alexia best and of course I want to win!!!!
I love the Alice!
A new dress? yay!!!
I don’t wear dresses, but I LOVE their tops. Especially the #3002! I would love to have that one in black!
For serious?? I LOVE MikaRose. I can’t afford them usually, but I drool over them all the time. Please please please RNG!!!
I like Emily best. I might have to buy it even if I don’t win.
The Ariana would be perfect to wear to work!
Some very pretty things, indeed!
Oh, I want a new pretty dress. I like the Emily, which coincidentally is my daughter’s name.
Wow, those are beautiful and very well-priced. Thanks!
The Alexia in Black!
I like the Emily. My legs haven’t seen sunshine for about 9 months. Spring hurry up.
that sounds like fun!
Sweetness!!!!! This would kill for my sister’s birthday gift!
Yes, please! I think I like the Allison.
I love the ariana!
Finally – dresses for people who don’t like everything to hang out! They’re all pretty dresses. I like the Lindsay. Think that is the most flattering – for me!
(BTW – Mir, are you testing your faithful followers?! You actually want people to read what you write?! I’m astounded by the number of folks who go through the trouble of entering your pretty contests, but don’t do what you ask us to do!! To think that you even go through the trouble of putting it in bold!)
Oh SNAP!! You did good! This is a new site to me. I will be shopping. THANKS!!!! This is great to know about. I think everyone is shopping right now, I can’t get the site to come up, but when I do, I bet I will be buying.
I’ve been debating buying the Alexia dress for months now. Love that one.
Awe, do you see those CUTE little girl dresses??!!
Oops, meant to say the Christine dress is my fav! Got caught up in the little girl cuteness!

The Alice! So pretty!
What a perfect way to celebrate losing almost 70 pounds…a new dress!
Due date for fourth baby in 5 years = yesterday. New dress for spring = absolute necessity! I would love one!
Cute clothes! The Alice is my favorite.
I like Alice in the pink color. I also like the white eyelet skirt!
I’m liking the Lindsay! I would never splurge on something like this for myself so this would be awesome!

Love MikaRose. So want the Ariana. Or maybe the Allison. They’re all dahling.
Yay!
I love the Eva-so simple and versatile!
I like a couple of them, but really like the Emily quite a bit. I’d love a new dress (or even a skirt, which I also like).

Emily in Black. Thank you!
Hard decision but it would either be Eva or Lindsey.
