I own no dresses and that's partly because I'm only 5' tall and it's hard to find dresses. In the last year I lost 20 pounds and have been able to go down a size. I wear denim pants with an elastic waistline almost all of the time and in summer I switch to pedal pushers. I switch from long sleeves to short sleeved tees for summer. In winter I like wearing cardigans with my tees. I like jewelry too and that and a few purses are my main accessories.Ladybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16498073383008262044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8923339336395220707.post-55873304123153566462011-06-06T22:16:34.310-04:002011-06-06T22:16:34.310-04:00I prefer leggings, a pretty oversize top and balle...I prefer leggings, a pretty oversize top and ballet flats - but I'm a big girl and it's a good look for me. The dresses I wear are long and flowing. Love sweaters in the winter too, long ones over the leggings and little boots.<br />Since I read historical fiction, I love to read about the costumes.<br />Like Mare F, I love shawls and scarves too.Witch of Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00215650029608694535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8923339336395220707.post-31679781837301040742011-06-06T15:39:56.133-04:002011-06-06T15:39:56.133-04:00Mare - scarves and shawls are great!

You crocheted me a really fun one I use at Faire! <br /><br />I also love to accessorize - bracelets, belts, and fun necklaces - I have tons of necklaces. My favorite way to make an outfit my own!Terrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8923339336395220707.post-40507368122259218042011-06-06T15:27:24.602-04:002011-06-06T15:27:24.602-04:00LOL.

I had to wear dresses for work (office) for years and while I still own a couple, I head toward pants because I am still a tomboy at heart. As the weight slowly trickles off I will join Pamela in the flowy dresses because I can still crawl around if I have to and not scare the horses. <br /><br />I love hats, but lost most of my hat collection in a storage unit I used. Between a roof leak and rodents most of my straw and felt hats went the way of all things. I think I shall pull out some of my hats and begin to wear them again. <br /><br />I love shawls and scarves. I have billions, well okay, lots of them in all colors. Rarely does a cool day pass without me wearing at least a cotton scarf. Too much fun. <br /><br />Stacy and Clinton are my only fashion links and I haven't seen them in a while. I don't always agree with them, but I do learn something every time I watch.MareFnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8923339336395220707.post-81163807098427461552011-06-06T14:34:10.361-04:002011-06-06T14:34:10.361-04:00Personally, I prefer dresses or skirts but do not ...Personally, I prefer dresses or skirts but do not wear them at all in the Winter. I LOATHE hose so it is just too cold. Not to mention my calves are too wide for boots. So slacks all winter, sigh. But Spring, Summer, I pull out dresses and skirts. Funky prints, jewel colors, fun, flirty, pretty. Love them all. And I hove tons of fun sandals to go with them. The only irk I have is that so many these days show too much cleavage for work.<br /><br />I haven't found a pair of jeans that fit right in over 20 years so I dont even try any more.<br /><br />I do enjoy project runway, and Fashion police but its more watching people on the subway.<br /><br />Wanna know something I have noticed - the majority of feet are NOT attractive. I am amazed at it looking on the subway...Terrinoreply@blogger.com
