Making Torah Choices

I was thinking about Shavuos being Zman Matan Toraseinu—the time we received the Torah.

For many, that means a night of learning. But what about those of us who won’t be staying up until dawn with a sefer in hand? Where does our mitzvah come in?

As women, we are the heart of the Torah home. Our avodah is to uphold the Torah lifestyle—to nurture it in our families, to support the learning of our husbands, children, and siblings, and to infuse our homes with Torah values and warmth.

One of the most visible expressions of that mission is how we dress. Tznius isn’t just about inches and guidelines. It’s about broadcasting a message: “I am a product of Torah choices.” It’s a quiet, dignified way of saying: Here lives a frum woman. Here is a home that chose Hashem and His Torah.

I recently watched a short clip of the beloved Zehava Braunstein a”h. One message that resonated deeply was this: when we focus too much on the minutiae, we risk losing sight of the greater meaning. If only we believed in ourselves more—believed that our choices and presence truly reflect a Torah life—we’d carry this beautiful responsibility with more confidence and joy.

So this Shavuos, as we say naaseh v’nishma once again, let’s reaffirm our commitment to Hashem’s Torah—not just in thought, but in action, in lifestyle, and in dress.

As always, we’re here to help you express that commitment proudly and beautifully.

Wishing us all a beautiful Yom Tov,
Chaya & Co.
