1 Timothy 2:9–10
9 Likewise, let the women adorn themselves in respectable clothing, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or expensive clothing, 10 but with good works, as is proper for women who profess godliness.
1 Peter 3:3–4

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like one of these; 30 and if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not worry, saying, “What shall we eat?” or “What shall we drink?” or “What shall we wear?” 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
