That's it .... default mode is skirt and heels.

I really was hoping there would be a little discussion on wearing leather skirts so I went looking for some and I came across what I think was a good one. Leather Skirts & Trousers

The significant paragraph is:

Leather skirts make you extremely popular with men, who see them as one of the hallmark adverts of a hooker. They also make you highly unpopular with women, who will regard you as a complete joke if the skirt doesn't suit you, or a complete whore if you look great. Consequently, If you want to be comfortable wearing a leather skirt in public you have to become immune to the disdain of women and the fantasy imaginings of men. I don't have a problem with this, but I think most women do.

Another site Maria’s Diary contains the following:

Now, a leather skirt is a very risky item to wear in public. You can look a million dollars in one, or you can look like a complete fashion disaster.

Leather skirts make you extremely popular with men. They also make you highly unpopular with women. Even if what you're wearing has been featured on the front cover of Vogue magazine, as far as most women are concerned two simple equations explain the phenomenon of a woman over the age of twenty-five who's wearing such a garment:

Leather skirt + dumpy plain woman = complete joke

Leather skirt + highly attractive woman = whore

There is further discussion about wearing thigh boots but that’s another thread.

I do understand that you don’t believe everything you read on the web.

Any thoughts?

I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.

Monday started off as a cold brisk day. I planned a morning grocery stop and a shopping trip at Sam’s after work. I left the house wearing a dark green turtleneck, brown suede coat, black thigh boots with 5” stiletto heels cuffed down to knee length, black hose and a knee length black leather skirt. This is my favorite skirt. It is heavy cow leather and tight enough to look good and feel great to wear but not so tight that there are unseemly bulges.

The grocery stop was uneventful. I walked in and got my stuff (I didn’t have time to wander around). I had never seen the register clerk before but she didn’t seemed ruffled in the least as I walked up to the register. The guy in front of me took note of my boots and skirt but then went about his business of bagging his groceries.

At Sam’s I went in and realized I had forgotten my hat. Thinking back on all these postings I have never mentioned that I wear a black baseball style hat. This is really part of my outfit. I wear my hear in a pony tail and the hat covers the lack of hair on the top of my head. I really look like a different person with the hat than without. Without the hat I look like an old balding guy wearing a leather skirt and thigh boots. With the hat I really look much younger and with the skirt and thigh boots some people have to look twice to be sure I’m a guy (most get it at first glance) anyway the hat really helps the look.

When I went in there was a young guy at the door checking Ids and he had never seen me before. I think he was having a tough time dealing with what he saw. I had to get a lot of big stuff so I quickly loaded my cart with the biggest items and checked out of the store. I went out to the car and unloaded the cart, put my hat on, and want back into the store.

The hat really makes a difference in how I feel even if it doesn’t change the overall appearance that much. My confidence comes from being comfortable with how I look and the hat is part of that look. I pulled my boots up to their full height (because it was cold) and this brought the top of the boots about 1” above the hem of the skirt. This time I wandered around getting the smaller items and I just took my time.

I had seen the girl at the checkout register before and I asked her if “this is too much”?

She replied, “Your fine”.

After that I stopped for gas at a pay at the pump station then headed home.

Sometimes I wish this skirt wasn’t so absolutely comfortable and felt so good to wear then I wouldn’t be tempted to wear it as much. I do appreciate that any skirt but particularly a tight black leather one is pushing the envelope about as far as I can expect other people to tolerate it. People seem to accept the thigh boots even with stiletto heels but the skirt seems to bother folks a little more. I’ll just have to be sure about the places I go wearing one.

This was a good start of the week.

(As I was entering this, I reread my previous post. I really should keep that in mind before I go out in a leather skirt).

Thanks for the references. Interesting reading.
