What to wear in Poland?

can you quote please.

1 corinthians 1:29 is direct NT church quote.

Principle: Adam & Eve, Levitical priestly garments, etc etc

Adam and Eve were ruled by extreme dress code.

Im not sure about drinking, did you mean smoke more or less? The Polish women that Ive met smoke like troopers, but Im not sure how that makes your clothes look better? I totally agree about the make up. Generally a lot of Polish women are good looking and have nice figures, but the style of clothes and the make up that they wear can make them look tarty. But obviously fashions are different in different countries, so I think I only notice it because they look different when in the UK.. this goes for Russians and other Central/Eastern European countries too. You can tell where they come from by their dress and make up choices. Ive noticed a lot of Polish women like to wear white or pastel colours in particular.

I wish I would have gone to mass on Sunday while in Poland. In the US, the dress code seems to be more lenient. I've seen girls wearing skirts slightly above their knees, and guys wearing an outfit that is meant for the gym.

From my short stay, I had to wear a sweater and jeans while in Zakopane; shorts and a t-shirt while in the Tri-City area (Gdansk, Gydnia, Sopot). However, when I went to the beaches in Stegna, I marveled at how some people can go swimming and walking around in their speedos at 65 degree F weather.

What's the average temperature in Poland (Lublin area specifically) in the second half of August?

I think it's the way they hold their handbags. :D ;)

You dont have to be Catholic to know you need to dress modestly and respectful. I'm Church of England, irronically my other half is Catholic as well as my Father but they never forced their religion and restraints of it on me, I respect myself.

Its unfortuate that the younger generation, especially Brits, I can say that as i am one, have very little self-respect and show as much flesh as possible. Saturday nights are Meat Feasts in town. Its not very attractive and leaves little or nothing to the imagination. Not so strange that so many teenagers get pregnant too soon or worse get raped. Enough preaching from me.

My Polish lover said he was attracted to me because of my respect for myself and not flauniting my assests. I take this as a great compliment, although when we first met it was at work and our uniforms are NOT flattering at all.

woa.
