Whatever might or might not be wrong with trying to have “too many” Chumros, it isn’t 1/1000th as bad as dressing like a prutza.
I just want to point out that if you emphasize chumros too much (in any area), you may be provoking rebellion in some people. Far better to focus on what halacha requires.
When someone reads about kimchis, or an inspiring story about a woman who covered her sheitel & merited a yeshua, they can think, “this is all totally irrelevant to me”.
Far better if said publications would focus on the need to have knees & torso covered at all times. It’s true that it’s tragic that we’ve come to the point that people should have to be told, but it’s obviously a fact!
