The Jaunts of JeffB!

[JeffB]

JAUNT #200, 9/29/2013

As promised, for my 200th jaunt (hard to believe I've been at this for as long as I have), I hit the road in a dress for a fairly short, but enjoyable outing as the sports fan in me had to get back in time to file this report so I can sit down to watch my Eagles do battle with Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos. The dress in question came from Sears and was a sleeveless chiffon dress with a sheer open front jacket. When I saw this on the rack, I fell in love and bought it right on the spot, and it fit like a dream when I got back home. It had a level of style, beauty and elegance that I liked, and, more importantly, it looked good on me. Also, it marked the first time I wore something that wasn't a solid color, which could be seen as pushing the envelope, as was the entire outfit, this was something bold and dynamic, but I was eager to give it a try. I paired my dress with the newly bought Payless "Janine" black patent pumps, off-black pantyhose, a black handbag, and a nice matching necklace. Words fail to describe how good it felt to wear that outfit, and it felt perfectly natural to wear that dress too.

 

My outing was to center city Philadelphia and the Museum of Art which I figured would be the perfect place to wear my dress. After arriving and parking in the garage, I hopped right out, feeling not the least bit anxious or nervous about what I was wearing, and that's the key to this whole business, feeling comfortable and at ease, if you fail and that, you're going to give off bad vibes that people around you pick up, and suddenly, they wonder what's going on with you. But in my case, it was no big deal to wear a dress and heels, and I acted that way as I strolled to the entrance to the museum, the three inch heels of the Janine pumps good and loud. I did get a couple of odd looks here and there as I entered since there was a good crowd inside for an early Sunday afternoon, but I acted just like every over patron who enjoys taking in the wondrous art that the museum had to offer, and I took my time (relatively), strolling throughout the building. Several people gaped and stared and did double takes, thought I heard a giggle but wasn't sure, but no one made a scene, however, there was a positive moment when in the European art section, an older lady came up to me, smiling and one said, "Excuse me, I never thought I'd say this to a man, but I love your dress! It looks fabulous on you. And your shoes are terrific!"

 

I think I blushed, never expecting compliments which I don't get often, but I smiled back and thanked the lady for her kind words, she said she was amazed I looked so at ease in my ensemble and complimented me for being bold before she left, wishing me a great day. That was pretty darn cool to say the least. I would spend another hour and a half, slowly strolling about, the Janine pumps very comfortable for prolonged standing and walking before the time came that I had to leave and get back home. And that was my experience, proving that a man can indeed look good in a dress if he does everything just right. Now I'm eager to wear more dresses because of how great it felt to wear them, and I know I have what it takes to pull it off. And my evolution as a fashion freestyler continues. Now to finish this post and go watch my Eagles in action!

Congratulations on your 200th outing. What a smashing outfit. Great looking dress,heels and all around look. (Sorry about your Eagles. Manning's playing terrifically this year. Denver is going to be hard for anyone to beat.)

I loved reading about your 200th Jeff. You look totally comfortable in that dress. The outfit rocks! Way to go!

Indeed the outfit serves well the purpose to mark the 200th jaunt.Well done,my friend!

[SleekHeels]

Mighty impressive Jeff. I'm glad you got a compliment from that nice lady. Perhaps not many people "get it" that a guy can wear heels and still be a guy, which is why compliments are so are (but it's so nice when it does happen). I admire your confidence and sense of enjoyment, a super way to celebrate your 200th.

[Curt]

Hey jeff, I love the dress. And you look great wearing it! I would wear it for sure. What brand is it? I especially love the bottom part of it, and the hose. Ii would have loved to see a pic without the over-blouse. But it was a very classy outfit. So happy for you!

[mlroseplant]

Looking good, Jeff! Congratulations on your milestone.

[bluejay]

Very nice JeffB. Your ensemble looked great. It was a perfect match. I'm glad you had a great time.

 

Thanks for the post and your pics.

 

Happy Heeling,

bluejay

[JeffB]

Thanks for the kind words on my 200th jaunt, everybody! I appreciate your comments greatly! Yes, wearing that dress had been a wonderful experience for me, and I loved every minute, even though the outing wasn't quite as long as I would've liked. That was more enjoyable than my previous two outings (jaunts #100 and #150) and has solidified my desire to wear dresses more often because I enjoy them so much, and yeah, I look good in them. Between skirts and now dresses, it's going to be damn hard to go back to jeans, and, as I've said several times, I can't think of a good reason why I should.

 

Bubba: If I had known my Eagles would lay the colossal egg they had in Denver (though I suspected they would), I would've stayed out much longer, maybe gone into town after visiting the museum and had dinner somewhere. And yeah, the Broncos look pretty much unstoppable.

 

Pumpcat: HERE is a link to the page about the dress I bought at Sears. The fit and style was wonderful  and it worked perfectly for me. In fact, I'm pretty much sold on two piece dresses like what I wore on Sunday, and Sears has several more that appeal to me.

 

Oh, yeah! Because folks love numbers which makes the world go 'round, here's some on my jaunts:

 

JAUNTS BY YEAR

2008: 10 (jeans-6, skirts-3, pants-1)

2009: 42 (skirts-39, skorts-2, jeans-1)

2010: 28 (skirts-19, jeans-8, capris-1)

2011: 61 (jeans-35, skirts-18, skorts-4, capris-3, dresses-1)

2012: 34 (skirts-22, jeans-8, skorts-2, dresses-1, leggings-1)

2013: 25 and counting (skirts-18, jeans-5, skorts-1, dresses-1)

 

Skirts: 119

Jeans: 63

Skorts: 9

Capris: 4

Dresses: 3

Pants: 1

Leggings: 1

 

Skirts (above knee): 85

Skirts (below knee): 30

Skirts (at knee): 4

Skorts: 9

Dresses: 3

 

Jeans (tucked): 39

Jeans (untucked): 24

Capris: 4

Pants: 1

 

Pumps: 77

Boots: 75

Flats: 15

Sandals: 3

 

Thigh boots: 39

Knee boots: 34

Ankle boots: 2

 

Payless Shoes: 102

Other Shoes: 98

 

And here's something Thighbootguy will like, the footwear I've worn most on my adventures were the Pleaser "Legend" 4 inch heeled thigh high boots at 38 times. Hey, TBG! Thanks for turning me on to how great thigh boots are! That was followed by the Blondo loafers at 26 and the Pleaser "Vanity" 4 inch heeled knee boots at 18. The Payless shoes I've worn most are the "Hazel" pumps and "Tara" knee boots at 16, followed by the "Cori" wedge flats at 12 and the "Lance Flex" pumps in black at 11. Aren't numbers just wonderful?

[LuvyourShoes]

I love it! Awesome work sir!!!

I love it! Awesome work sir!!!

 

Many thanks for the compliment!

 

Jaunt #201, 10/2/2013:

After dressing up to the nines for my 200th jaunt, I dressed down for my follow-up adventure, going with a blue polo shirt, my Old Navy 17 inch denim skirt, the Payless "Cori" wedge flats and my crossbody handbag. Because the weather was unseasonably mild, what with temps reaching into the low 80's, more common for August than October, I couldn't resist breaking out one of my short skirts for a short outing as I went to the UPS depot in South Philly to pick up a very important package, namely the three pairs of "Karmen" pumps I ordered from Payless. After a twenty minute drive to the depot, I hopped out and went inside the building, there were only three customers who were already being waited on, a clerk asked if I needed help, I gave him the shipping slip left behind on my door the previous day. Following a brief wait, the clerk came out with the fairly large box which contained my shoes, I signed for the parcel and hurried out, eager to get back home. This was perhaps my shortest outing to date, but it was still an opportunity to go out and about in a skirt, and, as usual, I felt perfectly at ease and comfortable in my outfit, my demeanor in the UPS depot that of just another customer looking to pick up a parcel, I made no big deal about what I wore as wearing a skirt was as natural to me as breathing, and no one else noticed anything either. And that's how I like things to go on my outings.

[Curt]

Jeff, you look quite natural in the skirt. If someone wants to wear a skirt as a guy, this would be it. Good for you for going out in bare legs too! A couldn't do that. There has to be some king of hosiery. Quite a contrast from your last jaunt. Btw, thanks for the link on the dress you wore. I'm going to look for one like that. Hopefully a size 0 isn't too hard to find. I think I have to eat more! I would love to see what you could put together once you get up to jaunt #300.

[Thighbootguy]

JeffB,

 

After that numeric barrage, you have abrogated your privilege of accusing me of over analyzing anything . Having said that… ain’t numbers fun.

 

The blue polo shirt and skirt look great.

[fatfuzz]

Well, thanks for the kind words, everybody! Much appreciated! Meanwhile, I had no idea there were members in the Tri-state area. Cool!

 

SleekHeels: You brought up some good points there. I guess I don't mind being ignored, I suppose that means people are willing to let me go my own way just like other people go their own way. And yeah, it is nice to dress up for a jaunt.

 

ilikekicks: Well, I must admit I don't quite know what to say. To have five women staring at my pictures was quite the ego stroking little event. Cool! Many thanks to Granny for the kind words, I guess I do pretty good for 54! HA!

54?? No way!

 

Mind you I get the same - I'm 37 and most people take 10 years off that and are surprised to learn otherwise.

Maybe an evening gown. Just kidding! Heh! I most appreciate your saying I looked natural in that skirt I wore today, my goal is to look as ordinary as possible, like what I wear is no big deal, and to me, that's just the case. As for the issue of bare legs, that feels natural to me, and given how hot it had been here this summer, wearing hosiery was a definite non-starter. But, come winter, I envision plenty of outings in tights. Good luck with that dress I gave you that link for.  

JeffB,   After that numeric barrage, you have abrogated your privilege of accusing me of over analyzing anything . Having said that… ain’t numbers fun.   The blue polo shirt and skirt look great.   TBG

Well, you won't have to worry about numbers again until jaunt #250. HA!  

54?? No way!   Mind you I get the same - I'm 37 and most people take 10 years off that and are surprised to learn otherwise.

I guess I look good for my advanced years.

 

Jaunt #202, 10/3/2013:

With a boatload of Payless "Karmen" pumps in my bedroom, I decided to start breaking them in, leading off with the nude patent pair which I matched up with the JCPenney brown polo shirt, my tan Penney American Living skirt and my brown handbag. Since fall is here (though it doesn't feel like it, what with temps in the upper 70's), I thought this would make for a nice, seasonal outfit. My first stop was to the city's main post office for some stamps, after parking, I hopped right out and walked right inside, the heels of the Karmens sharp and loud on the pavement, there were four people ahead of me in line, so I waited patiently, after over five minutes, with half a dozen people behind me, none of whom paid me any attention, I walked up to the counter, bought my stamps and walked out, pretty as you please.

 

From there, I headed into town as the afternoon was young. Now, even though I NEVER step foot out of my house unless I'm one hundred percent satisfied with my outfit, I did express a wee bit of concern about the pumps since I rarely saw anyone wearing nude colored shoes, and I don't want to be seen as being unfashionable. However, it turns out those concerns were baseless as I saw no few than eight women wearing nude shoes, so that put my mind at ease. Needing to tap an ATM, I parked, got out, fed the meter and went to the local branch of my bank nearly a block away. Being in that area of center city at around 12:30, alive with hustle and bustle and crowded with lunchtime crowds on the streets was an absolutely amazing experience as there were so very many women in pencil skirts and heels, dresses and heels, skirt suits and heels, talk about a smorgasbord! And the best part of it all was that I fit right in with the crowd in my own skirt and heels, no one stared, gaped or turned their heads as I walked past, incredible! After I tapped the ATM, I casually walked back, earning virtually zero attention from the crowd, got back in my car and drove off. Being part of that crowd, dressed the way I was quite the enjoyable experience.

 

My final stop of the outing (after some searching for a parking spot) was to Barnes & Noble where, following a half-block walk, I spent well over half an hour in the store, reading the paper with bottle of iced tea and a croissant, and again, no one gave me the time of day, I was just another customer, nothing more, nothing less. This was certainly one of my more pleasant outings as I got to break in a new pair of shoes and enjoyed the nice weather. What could be better?

[Curt]

Hey jeff, I know what you mean about the bunch of women in skirts and heels. I was in the fashion mecca of toronto at bay and bloor streets. There were a ton of women around me in heels. The sound was intoxicating. Are your jaunts more frequent lately? Looking good! Ashley

[SkirtDude]

Looking great Jeff! Love this beige skirt! Really suits your complexion too. You're a snappy dresser ♥♥♥

[SleekHeels]

That's a very well-balanced look Jeff, the length and shape of the skirt works really well and I love the colour combination. Browns and beiges seem to be quite a rarity in the shops these days. I have a sandstone skirt that hasn't made its debut yet, so consider me inspired (as always) !

[bluejay]

Nice look, JeffB.

 

Thanks for the post and pics.

Thanks for the kind words. Seeing all those pencil skirts has encouraged me to wear them more as they look good on me. As for the frequency of my jaunts, I'm one of those 800,000 federal workers placed on unpaid furlough because of the government shutdown, so I need something to do to pass those unplanned hours.

A snappy dresser? Well, I don't think I've ever been called that before! Thanks! To be honest, I've never taken my complexion into consideration when I put an outfit together, but yeah, yesterday's outfit did suit my coloring.

 

That's a very well-balanced look Jeff, the length and shape of the skirt works really well and I love the colour combination. Browns and beiges seem to be quite a rarity in the shops these days. I have a sandstone skirt that hasn't made its debut yet, so consider me inspired (as always) !

 

Many thanks for the compliment. That was a pencil skirt of sorts, and the length is quite nice for me. I've only started wearing muted colors like browns and beiges, and they seem to work well for me and are perfect for this time of year. Meanwhile, I'm glad to have inspired you to wear that skirt you mentioned which sounds interesting.

 

Nice look, JeffB.

 

Thanks for the post and pics.

 

Happy Heeling,

The pleasure was all mine, bluejay. Glad you likes the pics!

[Thighbootguy]

Well, I wear glasses when out and about (but not in my pics because of glare off the lenses) because I'm old and nearsighted (or maybe farsighted). I kinda think they add an aura of sophistication when wearing a skirt and heels. Nothing wrong with looking classy, I try to do that all the time.

 

JeffB - Let us see at least one picture with the glasses (Look 30° to the side of the lens to kill the glare) .  Glasses can change (for better or worse) your whole look.

Hey there, TBG! I gave it a try like I suggested. I don't know if they'll look good, I'll leave that to your judgment.

 

Jaunt #203, 10/4/2013:

With the summer-like weather continuing, I thought I'd wear an outfit better suited for August than October as I went with the K-Mart Basic Editions black v-neck lace trimmed tank top, the I Heart Ronson 15 inch denim miniskirt from JCPenney, the Payless "Molly" platform wedge sandals and a black handbag. The Ronson skirt is fun to wear, and, as I've mentioned on the previous two times I've worn it, since I wear it under a top and without a belt, letting it sit at my natural waist, it looks longer than it really is, but it still shows off plenty of leg and feels comfortable. After being semi-dressed up on Thursday (Jaunt #202), I opted for being purely casual, and I acted casual the entire time I was out and about.

 

Today, I headed to the west, my first stop being Best Buy, I arrived there a little before 11:30, after parking, I hopped right out and casually strolled into the store, there was a mildly decent crowd, a guy who was looking at inkjet printers near the front of the store nearly bumped into me as I entered, and he looked up at me and gaped a little before saying "Excuse me". I can't say I blame him for gaping, in the Molly sandals with their five inch wedge heels (still can't believe how EASY these shoes are to walk in), I'm six foot seven, which is pretty darn tall, and I towered over everyone in the store. I wandered the store for well over half an hour, gazing at all the electrical and electronic goodies Best Buy has to offer which is always great fun for me, I did get an odd stare here and there, but other than having salespeople ask if I needed help on two or three occasions, no one made a big deal of what I wore, and that was my intention from jump street, to be just another person taking advantage of the nice weather to enjoy some shopping. Going to the register with the original Universal Studios releases of Dracula and Frankenstein on Blu-Ray (didn't see The Wolf Man or The Mummy though, I'll have to try another location), my shopping was complete and I left.

 

My second and final stop was down the road to Subway for lunch, hopping out the car, I earned a stare from someone in a car ten feet away as I walked to the store and entered. There was no customers, so I placed my order, sat down and ate, a few people came and ordered, but no one paid me any mind, and that was good enough for me. All in all, a good outing in a miniskirt on a delightfully warm day. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

[Thighbootguy]

JeffB –

 

The glasses look fine, in fact they enhance you smile.  The skirt and top look great.  6’7” is up there.  I’m 6’5” in 5” heels and that lets me stand out but the additional 2” would make a difference.  Watch out for doorways.

[Lime15]

Looking effortlessly great as always! 

[SkirtDude]

You're smiling in your 3rd pic! You've got a cute smile and I looove those glases ♥♥♥ You have confidence and style, looking forward to your next jaunt

Great look, JeffB. Love those black, wedge heel sandals.

 

Thanks for the post and the pics.

Thanks for the commentary on the glasses and how they enhance my smile. That never occurred to me before now. And yes, I'm always conscious of doorways when wearing the Molly sandals. HA!

 

Looking effortlessly great as always! 

 

Thanks for the kind words. I do as best I can. It should be noted that it takes a goodly amount of effort to look effortlessly great.

Thanks! I love wearing those sandals too!

 

Jaunt #204, 10/5/2013:

With summer in October continuing, I headed out for a new jaunt, wearing my K-Mart blue campshirt, the Old Navy dark denim 17 inch skirt, the Payless "Cori" wedge flats and a black handbag. Because it was so warm out (temps reached into the mid 80's), wearing a miniskirt seemed like the right thing to do on a day like this, and it was a good decision as I felt perfectly cool and comfortable, in fact, it actually felt liberating since I got to show off my legs, and that made things all the more fun as my goal for the day was to look as casual as possible, and the Cori flats are a definite favorite for my casual outings.

 

My first stop of the day was downtown to visit my favorite comic book shop, after parking a block away, I hopped out, paid the meter and strolled down to the shop, passing a beefy homeless man sitting in front of a closed down movie theater who's eyes widened, mouth fell open and his head swiveled as I walked past. I spent a good twenty minutes or so in the shop, no big deal, after leaving the store and heading back to my car, I passed by the same homeless man who gaped at me a second time, guess he wasn't used to seeing someone like me. Heh! From there, I drove into South Jersey and headed to the Moorestown Mall area, stopping at Chick-Fil-A for lunch, there wasn't much of a crowd in the store when I entered a little after noon, placed my order and ate without incident. My next stop was to the nearby Best Buy, once again, I confidently strolled into the store, earned a couple of stares here and there, but no big deal as I spent well over half an hour in the store, mingling with other shoppers, unfortunately, I couldn't find the Blu-Ray version of the original Wolf Man, so I had to settle for leaving the store with Iron Man 3.

 

My last stop of the day was to Barnes & Noble, after half an hour spent gazing over magazines, I headed to the video area, and when I was there, I passed a couple of African-American gentlemen my age, one of them, his accent seemingly Jamaican looked me up and down, then asked if I was wearing a skirt, I nodded, grinned and said yes. Guess he couldn't tell that I was. And that was it, but I found that little exchange mildly comical. Another pleasant day of freestyling as I took advantage of the warm weather to have fun.

Hey, Jeff! I've been out of town for the past 10 days on vacation and just got back. I'm catching up on the missed threads, so please accept my belated congrats on your 200th outing (and then some!). Looking great! You're doing a great job in keeping Payless in business. Tell them I said you deserve a free pair or two. lol

I appreciate the compliment. I liked that outfit a lot too. I'm glad that I can be seen by folks like you as a top example of freestyling, and I'll continue to do the very best I can.
