As a older mature CDer, I look better in a skirt that comes down to just above my knees. I would look a DG in a mini.

I just love the feel of the skirt fabric swishing around my legs. I picked knee length now, but come winter full may be my choice.

Charlene... the poll allows multi-entries.

I voted for the mini skirt as I have quite a few and love wearing them and showing of my legs but owing to my age I have to wear longer length when going out

for me black,knee length smart.
or a long length "gypsy" in this weather.
both lovely!

Question... If the skirt comes only down to 1 or 2" above the knee, is it still knee length or a mini??

For me it's the mini, well I do have to show of my best assets

Calf, BUT split to above the knees. Nothing like a little enticement to add to the outfit. ;)

Have worn skirts of all lengths but tend to favour the just below the knee length now, now i wonder what ever happened to the diamante belt i bought once to wear as a skirt during my learning curve!

I try to show as much leg as possible but still maintain my dignity for a, shall I say mature, lady. I do remember a time when a mini looked pretty good on me but for now I wear knee length.

Hugs, Paige

Hi Girls,

I'm sorry but I cheated and ticked 2 options - calf and full length. I love both lengths depending on where I'm going and what I'm doing. I have got a few knee length skirts that I am starting to get a bit more ambitious and wear, but, being older I won't wear anything shorter.

Mini skirts...What about pencil skirts?

07-08-2005, 08:37 PM
I vote to my knees or probably somewhere between my thigh and my knees....that is a sexy, classy, feminine lengths.....I don't like mini-skirts unless I have the butt and hip pads to get away with it ! :)

I love mini skirts. I love how sexy I feel and I work hard at keeping my legs in great shape so I want to show them off!

color=Sienna]xxx[/COLOR]xxxxxxxxx I choose long when I am entertaining or in public. I am tall and "mature", so feel I look better. when alone or with a close associate, I do enjoy getting "sleazy" and do the minni thing.. i feel really feminine in both. ;)

I was a mini girl but, given my middle age, I'm now predominantly a knee length lady. I still wear shorter skirts sometimes and I like figure hugging pencil skirts to mid calf length too.

A lot of trannies have great legs and, if you do, show them off. They're a great distraction.

I'm with you Charlene. However, I would prefer to go slightly higher than knee.

Right on Gina. My next purchase is a pencil skirt.

My skirts range from 3" above the knee, to just below the knee. It really depends on my mood.

Being a little on the old lady side. I prefer knee length. :) I do really enjoy how a knee length skirt feels. :love:

I've always had a thing about pleated skirts. So, months and months ago I bought a very long cream skirt (about 42 inches) on ebay by my favourite shop - Long Tall Sally. When it arrived I took one look at it and said 'I'll NEVER get into that! I tried anyway and I think although it's marked 14UK it's more like a 10UK.

Anyway, a few weeks later, I saw another, again, a 14UK by Long Tall Sally but in black, again, about 42 inches (that's UK inches :rolleyes: ). I thought I'd give it another go, so I bid and won it. When it arrived I looked at the waist and immediately thought 'that looks better'. I tried it on and again couldn't do up the waist.

Over the past 3 weeks or so I've been dieting (well, more managing and controlling what I eat). I've just tried the black one on again and here I am typing this in it. It is still a bit tight to do up, but if I stick with my current eating hablts I hope it will be a lot slacker in the next 4 to 6 weeks.

I'm very pleased with the way it hangs and moves. Must pop out to the shops now to 'road test' it :) .

Just the fact that they are all skirts makes them all fun to wear! But I feel the most womanly in the longer ones. There are times when the shorter ones are appropiate, however.

Love,

Hey Tristen!

How do you put that skirt on? With a spray gun? :drool: You look...well, let's just say my pantyhose are getting really uncomfortable! :nerves:

I'm wearing it right now and it's sooooo comfy comfy. Can you fit a size 6-7? :D

As one can guess from my profile and avatar pics, I do love my black leather mini. The only feminine feature I think I have to run with (no pun intended) would be my legs. So I like short, mid-thigh skirts that are swishy, wrap, tiered, drop-waist, etc. Ok, I'll admit it. I love the way it feels when I'm wearing pantyhose and a short skirt creeps up my thighs when I go to sit down. :D But honestly, they're not really age appropriate for me. I do also love a nice conservative knee to calf length skirt too. It has to be something elegant and I like silky fabrics that swish around my legs. I don't like anything longer whether it's a dress or skirt.

A 6/7? You B*otch!

On a good day, if I buy from a store that likes to delude women into feeling good about themselves, I've found I can shoehorn myself into a 12. :rotflmao:

Did I mention that I hate you! :) (You really do have a fantastic body Tristen. Make the most of it!)

I prefer mid thigh with stockings most times, if not mid thigh then knee length.

Sophia Rearen

DanaJ are you in a salon? Love the shoes!

Clare

I selected mini skirt, but i really prefer the size between mini and knee lengths. Something that has a hem about mid to low thigh length. As i was an (male, and yes i wore lycra bike shorts) aerobics instructor during the nineties, i developed muscular thighs and they are still pretty 'big', so anything that covers up the top half of my thighs is preferred.

Having said that, my main clothing style preference is business skirt suits, so most of them have reasonable length skirts anyway. But i will wear any length skirt if it goes with the top and shoes, so it all comes down to the style i'm trying to achieve at the time.

I'm gonna hafta divide this question into two parts:
If I'm going out for a drive, to a meeting,etc. I'll wear a nice, dignified, knee-length skirt.
But if I'm staying in......all bets are off and anything goes!

You look great legs are stunning and from the picture your abs look good also. How about a full length picture to allow us to get the full effect.

- skirt length,, seems,situation apropriate,though with legs's like Tristen's -Gina's- Julie"s or all 'girls' here realy, covering them seems a sad prospect,,,

mine are too long , and bad hair- poor breastforms,etc: I do like, Mini's,esp. in leather-hmmm-xx"K"
