Clients

Post by ChrisM »

Good one Skip! MY clients, well at least some of them, say "I love the kilt." But the Boss's clients...well he specifically mentioned the US Marines....

Chris,

A traditional kilt shouldn't upset anyone from the Marines. So, try one of those with kilt hose and everything else that you normally wear... After all, they've the Leatherneck tartan...

my outfit today

Post by Departed Member »

Hi All,

I'm at the front desk of the community center, where I do volunteer work. I took BART up here from San Jose, and I'm wearing my short grey leather skirt, suntan pantyhose and pumps with 3" (7.6 cm) heels. Also a grey pullover, and of course no wigs, padding nails or makeup. I shaved my legs today, but not my moustache!

Cheers, John

My shipment arrived

Post by Since1982 »

My shipment arrived yesterday from "The Woman Within" a plus sized catalog from Lane Bryant. I bought 2 of the straight denim skirts they had on the link I put in one of my earlier posts. One dark blue and one a color called Chambray, it's a light blue denim color. They are very nice but the model they showed them on must have been 7 feet tall..in the picture the skirt came to her mid calf and I'm 6'1'' tall and the skirt comes to my ankles. I'm going to leave the dark blue one full length but shorten the chambray one to mid calf. I'm wearing the dark blue ankle length one now with a dark blue T-shirt and some new black loafers I bought. I'm going to the Elks Bingo this evening but will change to a mid calf blue straight skirt I already have that I prefer for Bingo cause it has lots of pockets for dabbers and money. :)

I don't think it shows it better either.

Thanks for your support, however!!!

Sears in Key West

Post by Since1982 »

I had to take a 60 mile trip yesterday to Sears in Key West to buy a combo Washer Dryer since my washer and dryer were ruined last summer by floods from Hurricane Katrina. Since Sears is extremely physically disabled UNfriendly and doesn't even have an electric shopping scooter for its PD customers like me my SO Judy went with me and pushed my manual wheelchair all around the store. My skirt wearing must be getting to her as while there she actually asked me to buy her something she hasn't worn or owned one of in the 7 years I've known her. A SKIRT!!! She's been seeing many women wearing tiered crinkle style peasant dresses/skirts and took a black one off the rack into the fitting room and came back out to model it for me. "What do you think Skip?" she said, I said, "It's a completely different look for you and I like it, maybe I'll buy a blue one for myself so when we go out to eat we can dress somewhat alike." Unfortunately Sears doesn't carry any my size but as soon as I got home I ordered 3 from Lane Bryant who do carry them in my size. I'm thinking of not only wearing them as a skirt but as an underskirt for cool days under one of my A-line skirts, the 3 I ordered were colored in pale blue, coral and white. I thought I'd use the white one as an underskirt.

To go to sears I wore a lower calf length stretch denim straight skirt and turquoise T-shirt, my new George Foreman shoes I bought last week and crew socks. This skirt is sooo stretchy that being almost pencil straight means nothing as it stretches a lot, has a 10 inch back vent and getting in and out of a van is not the problem I thought it was going to be. One of my pictures I've posted shows me in a shorter version of the same skirt, with an orange T-shirt and black tights. :D

That sounds like the new skirt I got a couple of weeks ago and wore down to Providence today to visit a good friend of mine. It's a great skirt. In fact my wife wanted to get one like it and found that they'd all been sold out! (Of course if she gets a black one for herself, we'll have to do something to tell the two apart; I'm thinking about replacing the beads on the draw-string of mine with a couple of aircraft-grade titanium nuts. {evil grin})

I'd be careful about doing that as nuts can weight quite a bit, even titanium.. they can have (when swinging about) other effects on other such "nuts"

Well today I wore...

Post by ChrisM »

In the morning, while walking up to the shower facility and then back and then up to the laundry room and back I wore a white knee-length plain cotton skirt. Hard to describe, but I would say it's the same fabric as "Dockers" trousers or equal, and is a simple knee-length skirt, rear vent, two pockets.

But the real trip was that I have just flown from Baltimore MD to Seattle WA in a below-the-knee ladies kilt skirt, in roughly a Royal Stewart tartan. As usual I received only compliments. Including no remarks from the conservative Christian missionary alongside whom I sat for the last 2000 miles.

Yesterdayyyy

Post by Since1982 »

All my troubles seemed so farrrr awayyyy.....Yesterday, I took my very last pair of upper calf length denim shorts and cut out the crotch, opened the inner seams, sewed it all together front and back and VIOLA!!!! another 28"denim skirt! Then had to see how it was recieved and went to the Elks lodge Bingo last night wearing it. I was wearing a white 27" nylon slip under it and before the night was out I must have moved the wrong way and one of the younger of the old ladies that play Bingo said.."Skip, it's snowing down south, tee hee" As I was the only person in the Bingo hall wearing a skirt, all the ladies were in trousers of some kind, I just laughed and said, sorry, and hitched it up out of sight. That was my first time I'd heard that line since high school when it was a common remark to most of the girls in my school. When I was in school only the most daring girls would actually go in public wearing trousers. How things have changed. Amazing! :dance: :bouncy:

Well, the gals might like the "new" view. Some say, nothing is more sexy then a slip peeking under a skirt :)
