Yesterday ( Thursday ) was a lovely morning ,warmish sunshine and not too much wind . I had to pop into town and pick up my order of fence paint and buy some more photo paper for my printer .
It had been a while since I'd worn a skirt out so I picked out my fine cord skirts and chose the navy coloured one , it's still chilly enough to need opaque tights so I wore navy ones to match the skirt , I had a blue, patterned blouse and a pale blue cardigan worn under my lightweight jacket and then decided to slip my black heeled leather boots on . The heels aren't excessive but my skirt was a little shorter than I remembered above my knees . My first stop was Toolstation to get my fence paint and had a joke with the SAs , then popped across the road to get my paper only to find PC World were only doing click and collect . I didn't really want to go into the town centre but had no choice to find another shop for the paper . As I said it has been a while since I'd worn a skirt and hearing my heels on the pavement , I have to admit my mind did begin to drift and I felt quite sexy walking through town but I felt more annoyed than happy because all I was doing was shopping not heading for a night out . It's also been a while since I've known people turn when they hear the heels on the pavement .
Later that evening I chatted to my TS friend on the phone and told her how I felt about my feelings , she replied , " Good for you , women have the right to feel that way sometimes , I feel like that when I'm wearing something different or going out for the evening , women feel as sexy as men sometimes ." It was lovely to hear her say that and thanked her for it .
We both agreed that also part of the problem was through the isolation of lockdown due to Covid 19, we are losing the personal contact , we've possibly lost some of our identity .
The next time I'll give my brown skirt an outing no matter how I feel .
