Archaeology cat Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 [quote name='cmotherofpirl' timestamp='1327894722' post='2377402'] I think its an interesting idea, but I don't think I could survive winter without long underwear and sweatpants. My house is way too cold. [/quote]In Liverpool I often wore trousers under my skirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaeology cat Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 [quote name='Lil Red' timestamp='1327892535' post='2377357'] it doesn't sound silly to me [/quote]Thanks. My boots wore out, so I'm limited to my Doc Marten Mary Janes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixpence Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 i wear jeans and skirts and dresses.... i do like the skirts better, but I don't really have enough that would be good for the winter... on another note, i've discovered that skirts are great for paintball!!

BG45 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I find it so hilarious the muscle rippling guys are all in full armor so as not to get a welt from the paintballs hitting and you aren't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheresaThoma Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Question for all of you, Have you been able to find skirts with pockets? Right now none of my skirts have pockets and it is kind of annoying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is difficult to find other type skirts with pockets that aren't then really unflattering (vain I know but being realistic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissScripture Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 On my skirts with pockets, they are super small, and basically pointless... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papist Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 My wife only wears skirts and dresses. And now it be cold she wears long-johns underneath. She's so cute, especially when she wears sneakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the171 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I'm currently transitioning from skirts and pantaloons to skirts only. pantaloons, etc underneath when needed. Since I grew an inch (the last time I'll grow says my doctor. Still short.... lol!) I thought it'd be an opportune time for switching. i feel more like a woman when I wear skirts. Also, I'm somehow more aware of what I'm doing. I guess it's because you have to be careful in skirts. Also, I can't really find pantaloons that fit me modestly. They are either too tight around the hips or the legs. And it is uncomfortable. Lol! Skirts are better in many ways for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selah Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I have seen women come into our store wearing dresses and skirts. Really sweet people. They usually buy more skirts and jewelry and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love wearing skirts, and I feel that a girl/lady who wears skirts is bringing out some of her (as JP II said) “feminine genius!†I feel it is modest, and lady-like to wear a skirt. I do not wear one all of the time. I usually wear a pair of jeans and a t-shirt because I do not have many skirts because it’s hard to find modest ones.

And she also wants functional pockets in her skirts. Why is it the clothing companies don't want girls with pockets. I suggested she make a skirt using a pair of cargo pantaloons and incorporating all the pockets into the skirt. She loved the idea and I think she is going to go for it. She has made skirts using jeans before. She cut the legs long ways and inserted fabric between the legs to form a skirt.

[/quote] It was a friend of hers that she got the idea from. The above picture is not the one she made. I got it on the internet just for an example. My wife picked a better fabric that this example. There are sites with instructions on how to do this. The problem is that most are instructions to make a mini-skirts b/c these days a skirt is de facto mini-skirt.
