That's what I want to know! Gemfit - Thanks! I have a fave pair of jeans, and I think I may be ditching them this summer as well. tori - I have issues with being lady-like too ;) When I am in meetings and stuff, I remember to sit properly, but when I am behind my desk, I sit however I want! Ha ha! Mica - Exactly! Comments like that are SO annoying!!! sizzle - I thought of you when I wrote this! I wonder if people are giving me grief because they themselves do not feel comfortable enough with their body to wear a skirt? That is my hypothesis. Whenever someone gives me crap about something, I always think "this is their issue, not mine!" CourtneyInControl - Thanks :D That is one of the comments I got. So I made some comment asking if they thought I looked like crap every other day of the work....? That put them on the spot. SoMi's Nilsa - Their strong opinions are about not wearing them, but they are really not based on anything... they just wanted to go on and on about how they would never wear skirts. I don't get it. Why would you keep saying that to someone who was wearing a skirt. Why would you bring it up over and over throughout the day? Hilly - Thanks :) It was getting close to 100 when I was doing the thigh rub! I got all hot on the walk to work, then too cool at work. Oh well. I was more comfortable overall! Hotch Potchery - Thanks. I guess this is just another thing that people like to make fun of? Sure, I notice what people wear, and some people wear things that I WOULD not, but do I ever say anything? No! It's none of my business. diane - Thanks! I think I need one of those slips. I am also self conscious about open-toed shoes at work. I wore nice open-toed shoes with a heel with that skirt, but it was a day that not many people were in the office. And of course, I still got a comment that day, "Oh... another skirt?" ARGHHH!!! Susan - I think there just may be a masculinity in my group ;) LOL. Holly - That makes sense to me! I need to invest in some more so I have more choices like you! Holly - Ooo, good idea! And I always have deodorant at work! Christina - I LOVE looking at dresses! But... I have been good in not buying any! Jo - Thanks! I like your motto. ;) I need you in my office. Alice - I think I am going to start doing that soon! I got all of my skirts out this weekend! Erin - Maybe that is the mentality I am dealing with ;) I feel like I have a hard time matching a top to this skirt because it is a sheer material, and I cannot find another sheer material that matches... the sweater top seems too heavy! Gina (Mannyed) - I bet you look super cute though! Jamie - I feel so much better knowing I am not the only one! :D Shaina - Even your description makes me wish I was wearing a skirt today!

It is just too hot not to. I've been feeling the leg chub rub as long as I can remember. It will always be there unless I ever resort to surgery ;) I live in skirts and dresses in the summer.

To them, skirt = fancy event. Unless it was a denim skirt. I have a cute skirt that I bought on clearance at The Limited a few years ago and I've never been able to find a top that I like with it. Why is it so difficult?? At my old job whenever I would wear a skirt people would say, “Oooh, why are you so dressed up??” To them, skirt = fancy event. Unless it was a denim skirt.

I don't even own a dress or skirt. I used to wear them all the time when I worked eons ago. At this point, not only do my thighs rub together, but they sweat. No amount of corn starch baby powder would help. lol Wear what you want to wear--that's my motto! Looks cute!

I've been wearing skirts the past few days and have this new addiction to buying dresses. I use a bit of baby powder just blog along the thighs and it helps.
