[pamwow]

Well its the last day of a business trip and since yesterday afternoon I've been enfemme. Around the hotel and went out to eat.. Its really been snowing the last few days so today I decided to wear a brown skirt, tights and boots to drive home in. And as I was carrying my luggage to the car I passed two other women in the lobby both wearing skirts... Heading out in this 10 degree snowy weather! Seee!! All you jeans lovers.... Women do wear skirts even in bad weather!! And they looked hot! Lol. So I checked out and went and got gas. Now I'm heading north... Need to stop for lunch later.. Maybe some shopping and some photo ops! . Plan to spend 24 hours straight dressed... And enjoying every minute of it!

Ya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your my kind of Lady giggles -

Pam

10 degrees and wearing a skirt!?!? you the man...er....you a manly girl...I mean...you a girlie man.......you go, girl!!!!

[cordgrass]

I only wear skirts in really cold weather because my lovely warm insulated knee-high leather boots don't work with pants. They don't fit under or over, so I just wear warm tights and a long warm skirt. Unless I'm having to bend way over, like if I'm shoveling snow, then I make do with jeans and tights underneath, and inferior footwear.

Good for you Karen....Sounded like you had a blast...a cold one at that, but that's what life is all about.

[Helen H. Heels]

Hey Karen, I like my longer clingy skirts and of course high heeled boots! The heels give me support in the snow.

O.K. Karren, we get your point. LOL I'm sorry, but when it is that cold, I'll be wearing jeans with tights underneath, and the warmest sweaters that I own. After 30 years in the Tampa Bay area, I still freeze when the temps drop below 40. This is winter #5 here in Tn. and I still ain't liking the cold!!

[carolinewalker_2000]

Jeans are a definite no-no in cold weather - doesn't matter whether you are in boy or girl mode - they just don't keep you warm. For me, at this time of year, the preferred clothing is thick tights under wool trousers and sensible boots. (ie ones you can stand up in on ice; not smooth soled, spike heels.) Occasionally it is better to be "safe not sorry".

[Karren H]

Karren lives in the bituminous belt so she's a little softer than us Anthracite girls. LOL

I can't imagine how "soft" those lignite area girls are! Lol

Took a bunch of photos just need to find time to upload them.

[Ericka2]

Dang Karen! You just made me sad and a little jealous, I haven't gotten in my car and just take off somewhere on long trips for a while, I used to love doing that, but ever since I been a single parent I can't seem to feel comfortable doing that anymore, just got few more years to go and I'll be free!!!

Take care, Love Ericka

Oh! Well just have to wait till just got the usual Rain to contend with LOL

You only think your going to be free! Lol. Mine are 20 and 24.... Our neighbor's son is 40.... They never go away any more! Sigh.

To all those who have been wearing skirts walking in the woods; the last two days I've needed my snowshoes to walk in the woods. Most of southern Ontario has been buried. Skirts and snowshoes seem like something that should be on Sesame Street under "which of these things".
And Karren, I am still envious. I live for the possibility of an uneventful day like yours.

Is that degrees C or degrees F? We really need to specify which when we describe temperatures. -10 deg F would be -23 deg C.

I do a bit of cross-country skiing (would prefer to do more.) But pretty much every time I go out cross-country, I get this urge to ski in a skirt, even on group trips! I've gone a couple of times in a long denim skirt near my house, alone though.

A skirt might not be anywhere near as aerodynamically efficient or engineered for warmth as ski pants, but if the day isn't so bad out, why not? Though I'd wear tights for modesty for when I fall down... and to keep the snow from flying up directly on to my legs!

Or kalvin??

Or kalvin??

It's impossible to have a negative number of an absolute temperature scale:
Kelvin [Deg C - 273.15]

or

Rankine [deg F - 459.67]

I prefer it to be cool to cold. I guess I run a bit warmer than most people and so the cool air feels wonderful to me.

............. Then stopped in Summersville and at McDonald's. .............. And get a soda. More driving stopping at Clarksburg ................... Then I swung through burger king and got a milk shake.

[SIZE="3"]Karren, McDonalds, Burger Kings, sodas, milkshakes and still at your high school weight, How do you do it ? LOL ![/SIZE]

Karren -- Did you mention pics? Waiting to see them. Any taken outside? Or were you shivering too much to get a good pic?
Seriously, I wore a skirt slightly above my knees once in 21 or 22 degree weather. You know I wasn't really cold because I think I was too busy trying to walk femme in my heels.

[Plasibeau]

All this talk of cold just makes me want to mention that we are still wearing mini-skirts and sandals in some parts of California. It was 70 degrees today. :-))
