Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel said: “ Israel had no days as festive as the Fifteen of Av and Yom Kippur.” When theaidens oferusalem go out dresd in white g frments that were borrowed, so as not to embarrass one who had none. All the garments worn on these occasions requiredn immersion in a mikveh. The maidens of Jerusalem would go out and dance in the vineyards. And what would they say? “Young man, raise your eyes and see what you choose for yourself. Do not pay attention to beauty. Pay attention to family. Grace is false and beauty is vein, a woman who fears Hashem she should be praised.”  And the next verse says: ”Give her the fruits of her hands, and let her be praised in the cities with her deeds.” 

Similarly, it says elsewhere: “Go forth and gaze, O daughters of Zion, upon King Solomon adorned with crown his mother made him on the day of his wedding and other day of his heart’s joy.” Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel expounds this verse as an allegory in which “king Solomon” is taken as an allusion G-d and “his mother” as a reference to Israel. The phrase “on the day of his wedding” is a reference to the day of the giving of the Torah. And finally the phrase “and on the day of his heart’s joy” is a reference to the building of the Holy Temple. May it be built speedily in our days.
