Horrors, wearing pants!!!

Thank you, trail blazers! What would I wear if not pants? I can’t remember the last time I wore a skirt.

Good for them to be trail blazers for us. If I didn't wear pants or long shorts I would be arrested.


I don't own skirts or dresses.

Well they way I figure it, if they wore dresses or skirts. Those women would have been arrested for indecent exposure......lol

I wear dresses or skirts about 50% of the time. and pants around the house. Never to church. I also wear house dresses a good deal of the time. I can't imagine getting arrested for wearing pants though. I know it happened but we have come a long way baby! Though a bit of modesty also goes a long way these days.

So true, as my parents would say, "Leaves little for the imagination." I wear a camisole or tank top under low cut shirts and blouses. Capri's and jeans, my skirts and dress hems are mid calf length.

My ex daughter in law is in her late 40's dresses like shes a teenager.........lol

Glad for trailblazers wearing pants! I do not do dresses, skirts or shorts. Capri's or pants it is! The last time I wore a dress was in 2009 to my sons wedding. Just attended an event yesterday, and several of the gals had sleeveless sun dresses on, but also were wearing longer shorts underneath. New trend?

I like shift type dresses. I cant understand the mid thigh length many are wearing. It's ugly on 99% of any female unless model thin.

Believe me if i went to Church, or to court with a Judge, etc. I would think of needing a skirt to wear. That was drummed into ladies heads long ago. I just gave away my last skirt. Heaven forbid i need one for anything serious!
