Would You Wear a Mini-skirt?

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?

um, me being a guy, I vote yes for women and mini skirts. So crack a bottle, let your body waddle.

Definitely. My legs are one thing on my body that aren't huge and before I gained all this weight, I used to wear shorter skirts and shorts. I can't wait to go back to that again!

Heck Yea I would wear a mini-skirt.. I wear them now. And as my weight loss progress they fit even better :eek:

If you got it,flaut it..We went through all that hard wk to get there.. :thumbup::eek::ihih:

I would wear a mini skirt with knee length legging/tights underneath. Still show off the nice pins, but no saggy bits on display. As Trinny & Susannah say "In your 30's nobody wants to see your knees. The top and bottom just look like they are talking to each other"

I am 40 soon to be 41 and I bought one. My boyfriend and I were browsing JCPenney (in the Misses not Plus dept) and he saw it. Told me "this would look good on your 'new' body". I was skeptical at first b/c it did look to be rather short on the hanger. But I tried it on and while it is slightly above my knee (not extremely short), it looked good. Couldn's see any flabbiness. I've worn it a couple of times.

I'm 21. As soon as I loose the weight, why not? You can always wear tights underneath if your thighs aren't exactly great and that's exactly what I plan on doing. Hopefully I'll be one of those people that the older ones look at and think "Oh my god, what a tart" lol. Just kidding. =)
