Emile James Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 interesting to me, that allot of the 'new' communities in Europe, men and women, where blue, which personally for Sisters fine, but for men, looks out of place and odd to me, maybe a dark blue ... but... even then, :0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenlyCalling Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 There was this order, pre-vatican 2 who wore these really cool red habits, I think they were nurses, it just looked so cool. I dont think any active orders wear red now, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOliverOrder88 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I chose black Though I don't really consider the roman collar and black outfit a habit.... Brown's pretty nice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do many Orders now adays have a feast habit, one that is different then the ones worn everyday? Edited January 12, 2007 by HeavenlyCalling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjanetihm Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 [color=#000099]Blue! What could be a better way to imitate and think often of Our Blessed Mother? I wear it every day and I haven't gotten tired of it yet. Ever hear of the poem "Lovely Lady Dressed in Blue"? It's all about Mary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philosophette Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 (edited) I dunno.... I have to say that "blueberry" is really the best shade of habit. : Edited January 13, 2007 by philosobrat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
