1 Peter 3:3
KJV: Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
 
NASB: Your adornment must not be merely external--braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses;
 
NIV: Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.
 
It seems to me that in this verse, the NIV translators have the best English rendition of what Peter meant.
