wear skirts more often

This has dwindled off, in large part due to laziness, and partly due to practicality. I’m in the chorus of a musical right now, and the vast majority of my skirts don’t allow enough of a range of movement to be practical. We’re about to move from rehearsals into performances, though, so maybe now I’ll inch back into wearing skirts more often. May as well.

Almost at the end of my two week visit, and skirts every day. You know, with bloomers underneath, they’re really comfortable, and I just… feel a little… nicer in them. Less slobby. I want to try to keep this up when I go home. Besides. I get to wear cuter shoes when I’m wearing a skirt. ;)

Have been at it for a couple of days now, and have discovered a couple of related things:
1) secret to comfortable hosiery: garter belt and stockings!
2) secret #2 to comfortable hosiery, and just comfort in general in a skirt: bloomers are a really good idea. Esp. in hot weather. I quick-rigged some out of $5 pajama pants from Wal-Mart – best idea ev.er.

Both things that might make me more inclined to wear skirts more often.

Going down to visit my sister for the next two weeks, and because of her religious beliefs, she wears skirts all the time. Partly as a “when in Rome” sort of thing, and partly because I do like wearing skirts, I just tend not to go to the bother of shaving my legs while at home and so don’t wear them much, I usually wear skirts and dresses while I’m at her house. Maybe this will kick start me into wearing them a bit more ofthen at home.

Also, I’m in the middle of sewing a skirt for myself, and sewing is still so novel to me that I have a hunch it will be a little extra motivation to wear it – “See my skirt? I made it myself. :D”
