Don't forget your mantilla!


One of the great things about being Catholic is that we have all the trappings that go along with it - priests with collars, nuns with habits, and ladies with mantillas. All of these were seemingly cast aside in the uproar after Vatican II, but all seem to be on the comeback trail.

To borrow a phrase, "It's a good thing".

I recently added a couple of mantilla-related blogs over on "Links I Like" section. Step into the world of the mantilla; you'll be glad you did.

That's funny cause I've been thinking about wearing one. Plus they are so beautiful.

Thanks for posting this. I went to the site "Veils by Lily" that you referenced on the right and purchased a short ivory floral veil. I remember wearing the chapel veils as a child in church and I want to continue this beautiful tradition. I hope more women will pick up this practice. You're cartoon jogged my memory.

Thanks Tina - it really is a beautiful practice and I'm with you - I hope it comes back.
