Tough crowd!  She's wearing modern shoes with closed toes, pants, and a shirt that literally calls back to her family's ridiculous rules and there are still 35 things wrong with what she's doing.

I found the grey ones at Amazon starting at $350, depending on the features. Even at “just” $350 each that’s a heck of a lot of money for unemployed people. And it really bothers me that Felicity doesn’t get her own. I know it’s silly but it’s a real pet peeve of mine. Kids like music too. 

I don’t think they spend much money on Felicity.  She rarely wears a new outfit or new shoes.  I’m not in any way saying that’s a bad thing.  I personally think it’s ridiculous to buy a lot of new clothes for a child that will outgrow them quickly.  I’m simply making the point that I believe most of their money is spent on Jeremy first, then Jinger, then Felicity gets what’s left.  Of course all of this is just my assumption.

Plus, in a big metropolitan area there are enough wealthy neighborhoods scattered around to make it easy to buy anything you want from yard sales for Felicity for next to nothing....Unworn designer clothes for toddlers with the labels still on are all over the place in the spring and fall yard sale seasons....

So there's money left over for another pocket square for Jer. Yay!

How do they afford any seats on a plane?  The headphones, fancy suits, the somewhat decent clothes Jinger was wearing the day she was papped...where does all the money come from?

In general, I'm kind of baffled about where their money comes from. But I'm sure they didn't have to pay for this trip, though. I mean, if you're a speaker at a conference it's hard to imagine the sponsors not paying your transportation and accommodation costs, right? And since they're so big on marriage, this group probably does pay for spouses as well, I'd think......

Why do you think her clothes aren’t new? The kid’s wardrobe is better than mine. Those look like primarily designer or at least high-end department store brands. She’s not shlubbing around in Walmart or Old Navy originals like her cousins. Not that there’s anything wrong with that — I love Old Navy — but her clothes don’t look like her parents skimp on them.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Jinger and Jeremy spend very little on clothes for Felictiy because she keeps on getting outfits as gifts.  She is the only grandchild on Jeremy's side and he has sisters.  Between them, I bet Felicity has enough outfits for a month without needing to wear something mom and dad bought.  I have to stop myself from buying clothes for my niece because she does not need them but they are soo cute.

I suggested this some time ago.  Family, friends and fans are clothing her.  It is insane the money fans spend on their reality show favs.

I meant that she doesn’t wear a different outfit in every picture, not that they weren’t bought new.

It appears they take lots of pictures on one day and then post them sporadically over several months. Also, don’t most normal people wear the same clothes more than once? Even celebrities? My LO is Felicity’s age and probably has enough clothes to rotate through over 2 weeks before repeating again.

Looked at the website of one of the G3 sponsors (couldn't resist -- it's called Missional Wear). Anyway, found this --

They also sell, wait for it, a large selection of cigar holders.  (It's a man's man's man's world...) One says "Enjoy Calvinism" on it.

I gather that "The Spurge" was a big cigar smoker. Of course, at the time the news wasn't out about tobacco and cancer...

That would be fabulous for an ugly Christmas sweater party.

Even if you did have to walk around explaining it to everyone.

He has one sister. I doubt his sister buys most of Felicity's clothes.

My brother also has a sister.....and most of my niece’s and nephew’s clothes are from their single, childless aunt.  Sister Vuolo might be more responsible with her spending than my brother’s sister is. 😅😳 

I don’t think his parents and siblings are buying all of her clothes, but it’s certainly possible that they have purchased a large portion of them—especially with her being the only grandchild.

Maybe. I certainly hope Valerie doesn't feel obligated to buy Felicity most of her clothes. I think it's quite sad that single women are expected to buy tons of clothes for their siblings' children. My sibling has no children, but I still wouldn't be buying more than outfit or two a year if that much.

Valerie seems to be living her life. She was visiting recently, but I doubt she sees Jeremy that often. Hopefully JinJer can clothe their own kid.

If the sister is buying clothes, I highly doubt she feels obligated to do so. When my niece was young, I couldn’t resist the children’s clothes section of any store I went in. I loved buying things for her. I did it because it was fun and exciting for me because I adored her so much. I did it because I wanted to. My sister and brother in law were perfectly capable of buying everything that child needed. But that didn’t change my desire to want her to have everything cute that was ever made. She’s a teenager now, and my days of buying clothes for her are over because she’s too picky. But I still buy other things and do a lot for her because I love her and I want to. The same has been true for my daughter. My husband and I aren’t struggling. We are able to buy her anything she needs. But that doesn’t stop my mom, my MIL, or my sisters/sils from buying things for her when they see them just because they want to and want her to have it. It has NEVER been an obligation for any of us.

At this point, I don’t think he has any intention of being a minister. He wants to be famous for being famous. The end.

 I guess it’s possible he’s keeping this ministry shtick on the down low so that it doesn’t hurt his hipster fashion foodie brand and so that he keeps getting the MacArthur freebies and has something to fall back on...

The Reverend Facy Pants did not post anything on Instagram. He posted on his stories but those pictures disappear after 24 hrs. Very strange that a guy going into ministry avoids posting anything about ministry. Both him and Jinger posted old pictures with the location in LA, nothing from Atlanta. 

What is he wearing? Did he lose the bottom half of his gangster suit in transit?  The woman on the right looks the best dressed for that occasion.  Jing looks like a flight attendant for long defunct TWA.

5300 people showed up at G3.

Any idea how that compares to previous years?  Is that high attendance or low?

yeah, weird that he wouldn’t promote his preaching and attendance with famous preachers in every possible forum, as visibly as possible, given this is his calling in life. Hmmmm.

Since Jeremy gave a number, something I don't recall him doing in previous years, I assume it's good news for G3.

But even Lauren wouldn't be caught dead in that 80 year old,  old lady pleated skirt!

Well, this crowd rebelled last year when vile John Piper was a speaker. He was deemed "too liberal" for them. He isn't speaking this year. 

That getup fits right in.

Lauren has a good sense of style. Very few women actually pull of "fundie chic" the way she does. I don't like her but I do like her fashions. 

Jinger's style isn't bad either. The ones who could really use a "fundie chic makeover" are Jessa and Jill.

The jacket doesn’t fit, either. It’s too small. I think he’s gained some weight from all of those foodie adventures and is too vain (or too poor) to buy new clothes. 

I Googled Allie Stuckey. She’s got the same abhorrent beliefs as the Duggars, but seems to be more vocal about them. And I’m sorry, but that picture makes her look like she’s got a face like a mud rail fence.

I've been wondering when all the eating was going to catch up with him. Once upon a time, I had a good friend who was in a culinary arts program, and she shared most of her homework with me. The semester she was in pastries, my ass expanded at a remarkable pace. 🤣 Between all the burgers, pizzas, ice cream, and doughnuts, I think it's just inevitable that Jeremy gains mass. I'd say he's also probably less physically active than he was.

You are right about Lauren.  She dresses very well.  Jinger is starting to look awfully skinny to me.  Maybe the suit in the picture is too big for her.  Jeremy's clothes are too tight for him (is this the style right now?)??  If his jacket sleeves were just a little shorter and he was sporting a bowtie he would be veering into Pee Wee Herman territory.  The other girl in the photo is dressed a little old, but she looks more put together than the Vuolos.

I think she Lauren would actually.....Because I've read that pleated skirts are back. And the Duggarling Horde Love their trends! (while preaching loudly that they don't .)

"PLEATED SKIRTS ARE BACK IN STYLE

"If there is a trend you definitely don't want to miss this season, then it's a pleated skirt. Yes, this bottom piece is back in style now and we see pleats are making a surprising resurgence."
