Jill's Resurrection Day outfit reminds me of Bert's (DVD!) outfit in the dancing with penguins sequence in Mary Poppins. Of course, Bert's outfit is more modest and not nearly as tight. 

 

my first thought too!

Why do Dave's legs look like they are on backwards?

That’s not a hat, Jill. 

[lookeyloo]

I wonder if she "rents" the kids nicer clothes, leaves tags on and returns after pictures.  

[PradaKitty]

The little girls hats are too big. Especially Janessa’s. Fascinators such as those Jill and Kaylee are wearing were in style when Prince William got married. (In 2011!!). Jill’s skirt is just ridiculous.

Yeah, looking at it again, it may be a fascinator, not a bow. So if she was wearing it correctly, it should be on the top of her head, not holding her bangs back in the back. I'm more worried she's going to have a Princess Diana moment with that white skirt. 😱

I'm also confused why the three little girls need white tank tops under their perfect normal little kid dresses. I mean, I know the real answer is performative modesty, but those dresses actually seem to fit the kids, so there's nothing showing - or are they not allowed to have collarbones anymore?

[graybrown bird]

Jill LOVES herself.

 

[BradandJanet]

Jill sure spent that Melaleuca check fast buying new clothes for herself. She'll have to revive the whipped cream boutique to get rid of some of her collection. 

[Liddy52]

Why do the little girls need black leggings with the spring yellow dresses and white tee shirts? The dresses are plenty long enough to be modest. They could wear shorts underneath but if leggings are absolutely required, white would be better.

It's all performative. Black leggings make a STATEMENT OF MODESTY. 🙄

Jill isn't but Miss Kaylee might.   She might have a Princess Kate moment too.   that skirt is awfully thin.

Severely sluttish, Jill. 

Am I awful that I hope her skirt splits when she sits down?  Nah, it's Jill!

How does she get a comb through those snarled hair extensions?

I feel really sorry for the skirt. It's obviously suffering.

Jill, the attention seeker, came to an Easter Sunday church service dressed as a circus clown. Her lack of taste never fails.

Oh, it's a jolly holiday with Jilldo! No wonder that it's Jilldo that we love (to snark on)

[Tasya]

If Jill would purchase the little girls' dresses in the correct size, they would not need their modesty shirts to cover their "sinful"🙄 neck and collarbone area, and all she needs to do to cover their legs (because goodness forbid they show leg) is to put them in tights like a sensible mother would do.

Yeah, I would have thought that Good Friday was going to be observed very solemnly considering how Jill likes to brag that she's God's Best Martyr Ever. I would have expected 3 hour sermons, lots of "old fashion" hymns and Jill ranting about how crucifixion must have felt a lot like all of her SEVERE miscarriages (which, I'm sure she will point out, lasted a lot longer than three hours, no offence, Jesus). 

I live in the Bible Belt and, actually, the Fundie-leaning non-denominational churches and right-wing Baptists tend to ignore Holy Week. That includes Good Friday. Always seemed odd to me how these “pious” types just gloss over a major part of the story, but then they also pretty much ignore most of what Jesus said, so…

I finally figured out what Jill's striped shirt reminded me of! It was driving me crazy trying to remember what memory it was pinging, but it's the old Giorgio perfume packaging from the 80s/90s. I loved a movie called Troop Beverly Hills and that is where I first saw the Giorgio stripes.

I forgot about that! I thought it looked like a yellow circus tent.

Gosh back in the day I loved a little Giorgio.  I even found an acceptable knockoff for a while.

Since we're on the subject, there's something beige or green peeking out either under the shirt or over the top of the skirt. At first, I thought it was a modesty shirt under the blouse, but maybe it's Spanx or an equivalent. If so, that skirt either has a pretty low waist or she can't pull it up any higher. 

Yes, Giorigo! And it's in Jill's favorite decades.

Good catch.  It looks like the skirt is so small it won't pull up higher.

Primo? 🥰

My mom loved Giorgio.  I do not appreciate Jill trying to replicate the box it came in whether she meant to or not. 

I'm sure she selects her outfits very carefully in order to make sure all eyes are on her.  I mean, could you resist staring at such a godly Christian woman sauntering down the aisle wearing a bright yellow outfit topped with a fascinator?  You'd have to look whether you wanted to or not.

She probably won't buy anything higher than a size 10 for herself. She needs a 14.

Olivia stood out in the choir yesterday because she didn't take off her straw "bonnet." 

[oliviabenson]

I didn't notice Jonathan is so short and trim. the rod boys are taller than him. 

Oh one of the rodlets can actually fit in the skirt then.

Jill just buys stuff too small because she is delulu. and since she quit plexus reset she no longer will lose water weight quickly.

Well, not “topped” with the fascinator because she is such an ignorant hillbilly that she wore it completely wrong. 😑

Jonathan is a scrawny little dweeb. And Jill must be so uncomfortable most of the time wearing all of those tight, too-small clothes. I wonder what she wears around the house when not filming herself.

Jill posted a photo for the Golden Child's 26th birthday. (Yahoo had an article about the photo -- not because Nurie is that special. Ofsmuggar and the Ms are in the photo.) One, that's too damn many Kellers. Two, Priscilla looks pregnant.

The family was in St. Augustine to celebrate Ma Keller's 70th birthday. Even Esther made the trip from Zambia with 5 of her older kids.

I recognize some of Anna's siblings but not all and very few of the offspring.  Is that her two oldest standing behind her.  (McKenzie and Michael)

Yes, that's Mack and Mike behind Anna. They're standing on a sand dune. They're not that tall!

Jill had the Keller family photo in her IG birthday post for precious #1 daughter along with pics of just the Nurthans.  Keller picture is no longer there.  Did Jill get her hand slapped and will now have to console her poor persecuted self with another shopping spree?

Yeah, I was only referring to what we know about her. There are stories out there about her behavior at their church in NY and how it got them kicked out.

So who do we picture being the one to tell her she had took take the pic down. Never complaining, most perfect example of a godly daughter Nurie, Nurie's spineless headship Senior Pastor Nathan Keller, Pecan thief David Waller or maybe Pa Keller himself??

Jill has posted many, many times of taking all things to her gOd in prayer and she often tells us her gOd is so good to her.

How hard should it be for her to remember to "take it all to prayer"?

Maybe Kaylee will let mama use her new prayer closet.🤣
