happynun Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 You gotta love any habit, but especially the more simple styles.
philosophette Posted January 13, 2007 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

Emile James Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 [quote name='HeavenlyCalling' post='1162885' date='Jan 12 2007, 03:42 PM'] Those Orders are cloistered, though, these ones weren't, unless they changed to a cloistered order, can you do that? Do many Orders now a days have a feast habit, one that is different then the ones worn everyday? [/quote] ----------------------------------- yes, an Religious or Order can receive permission to go from Non-Cloister to cloistered..but not the other way around...the reasons why? are in the Summa and canon law
Chiquitunga Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I really like the blue grey of the Friars of the Immaculate. [img]http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/466/gruppofrancescaniimmacore7.jpg[/img] But just as much, or even more, Carmelite brown .. [img]http://www.carmelitemonastery.com/tour/tour11a/11a.jpg[/img] And also all the Franciscan shades, brown, grey, etc. But also the off-white of the Carthusians, but even better, the Carthusian habit, with the light blue veil of the Srs of Bethlehem. :j [img]http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/705/hpim4363medium0pr5.jpg[/img]

Totus Tuus Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Awesome, yes, and expensive :x We had one in the gift shop at OLAM of a PCPA, and I don't think she was selling because of her pricetag.

philosophette Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 VOLS? I still think an orange habit for the Holy Spirit would be beautiful. There is no liturgical orange and blue is rare. I wonder why these colors are so neglected.

Margaret Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I was torn Between Blue and Brown b/c I think Blue is so Perfect for religouse b/c of our Lady...BUT I just LOVE PCPA's and Carmelites PLUS there is no way I would keep any thing but brown clean....
Ora et Labora Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 black and white, or brown black and white. those are always beautiful!
johnnydigit Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 i was going to say black for men, white for women. since there was only one choice, i chose brown for both. it seems easier to maintain than solid black or solid white?
