Okay, I thought I'd try and get something going in the thirties. When/as you lose weight, would you wear a mini skirt? I'm not talking obscene, just pretty short.

I find I'm having to re-evaluate everything I wear. Is it appropriate. Do I look good enough to wear it. Husbands are no help! :-)

Just thought this might be fun. What are your thoughts?

i would wear one but then again i am 5'6" and have a very shapely body just to much fat onhe shape KWIM :thumbdown: anyhow since i was only banded 3 days ago i am good for now.....

I know I will once I have the legs for it! It'll take a while, my thighs and knees are the last places to lose weight.

I voted no. I have not so good legs even when I am at my best. (very short)

But the main reason is there is a woman at work...who has to be in her 50's from what I understand though is just petite and beautiful and big boobs...itty bitty everything else. She is very high ranking in our company and wears these little skirts all over the manufacturing plant and office. It just isn't appropriate for work. It has blasted a horrible association with that article of clothing for me.

I agree they have no place in the workforce! Nothing shows "I am smart and confident" like your booty falling out! lol..

That's not really my look, but I will totally be dressing hot! Lowrise jeans, tank tops, etc. Maybe mini skirts will become my look. A cute jean skirt with cowboy boots???? Looks sexy on some girls... maybe it will become my thing too?!? I have always liked the sort of 50's look though, with a-line skirts and little cap sleeved t's, or strapless sundresses with a billowy skirt. I think those things are sexy and cute. :smile:

So I voted no!

I voted yes, IF I think I look appropriate, not hoochie mama, my legs are squatty...we'll see.lol

im with suzi on this one my skin is sailin away ..lol heck i know i look good dont need a skirt to prove it..lol

I wear short skorts even now. Being 5'3" nothing is really TOO short on me, maybe 2-3" above my knee. My MIL says I need to show off my legs while I can. After years and years of cheerleading when I was younger, my legs are the only part of my body that still look decent. From mid-thigh down, they are still pretty muscular even if they are too big. If they still look decent when I loose weight, I will continue to wear short skorts; however, I'm no where near graceful enough to wear true short skirts. My "hotel" would show for sure. (When my niece was younger she would say "whole tail" and it sounded like "hotel".)

As for high heels, not now, not ever. One other thing I still have from years and years of cheering is weak ankles as they have both been sprained. I'm way more a flip-flop kind of gal.

Well, I tell ya....I have seen some folks that thought they was all that and a bag of chips, and OH MY they sho nuff wuznt.

When I went to the Seminar,,,the Docs wife said she has kinda taken her patients under her wing to try and help them learn to dress again. I just think it might be kinda hard to tell what is appropriate,,,considering we ,,,,or me, has had very little experience dressing me in skinny clothes..!...If I do come out looking silly will one of you please speak up???

wow KATHY,,,,,great loss.......You go girrrrrrrl

I voted heck yea, BUT I would probably only wear them with my DH. My DH likes to see me in short skirts and high heels every once in a while :hurray:(even now?!?!?!:rolleyes2:), so I have to keep him happy.

I wear minis (not super minis... but above the knee for sure) with tights all the time... and I am only five two and look darn cute in them if I do say so myself!

This thread is a month old, but damnit, it's worth reviving.

OF COURSE you should wear mini-skirts. The better question is why in the world wouldn't you wear mini-skirts??

Mini skirts are Gods gift to men. I only wish women realized how good they look in them, just the way they are.

This thread was probably meant for women in their 30's, and I'm a guy in his 20's. But trust me ladies, listen to your husbands on this one. The skirts work.

I plan on wearing a mini skirt! I think we are still young enough to pull it off..but I'm gonna wear mine with black Tights, and boots. Hey its cold! lol...and in the summer a jean mini with flip flops. :thumbup:

i voted no...i don't like how my legs look in pantyhose!!
