Anyone wear skirts now but didn't before??

Silly question I know, I keep looking at skirts, put them in the cart and before I get to the check out put them back lol! I have never been a skirt wearer because I never felt good in them. I want to start wearing them but am still a little self conscious. I work in a male dominant industry and in the 7-8 years I have been there I have not worn one once... I can only imagine the comments I would get. :huh2: So, anyone start wearing them since weight loss??

I wouldn't normally wear skirts, but a friend of mine who is also losing weight gave me a bunch of her skirts that were too big on her. I've found that skirts are much better than pants during this weight loss phase. My pants get baggy in the butt and look pretty unflattering when they start to get too big, but the skirts still look fine when they're a size too big ... they just start to ride a little lower on the waist.

Skirts are also MUCH easier to take in while your losing also. Something I did for years instead of buying new outfits each time I lost. Was take in some of the clothing. A skirt can be the easiest thing to take in without ruining the look of it.

I actually have become obsessed with wearing jean skirts...instead of shorts i now own 5 skirts and love them!!!!! I guess its because i feeel good in them and confident... and not to mention girly for once instead of wearing clothes that never fit right and made me look like a blob/manly so to speak... I never want to go back to being that person again...

I've always loved skirts and would wear them even when I was bigger. But now I'm in "normal" sizes, I can't stop buying new clothes and I especially love skirts and dress now. Buy what you like

that reminds me i bought a dress in a regular store size xl and i didnt look pregnant in it...
