I have a white cotton skirt that I love because it has a built in slip so you can keep your business, your business w/o worrying about it.

Oh man, I had one of those too, but it was STILL see-through... and then I bought another slip to put under it, and it was see-through again! Yeah I eventually threw it away. I need to stop buying cheap clothes...

This one was worth the $$. Actually, it was on sale, but still, I think I would have paid full price for it.

Actually, I just buy a lot of crew neck t-shirts and shells. I think the main reason she said that is because I work with high schoolers and young boys tend to, how do I put this delicately, try to look at your boobs. Sorry, couldn't put it delicately. I do wear collar shirts and leave the top button open, but I make sure that I do the bend forward test when I wear them. No open-toed shoes is probably because we have to respect the school dress code. If the girls can't wear sandals or flip flops, we can't either. I don't have many pair of dress shoes that ARE open-toe so it works out for me.

I used to work the professional offices for a theme park. The folks in the park couldn't wear open toed shoes and had restrictions regrading the number of rings and earrings you could wear, facial hair for men, etc. The people in the offices had to abide by the same rules-- no open toed shoes for the ladies, either.

You have to be talking about Disney - I haven't been to another theme park that actually cares what their employees look like (which can be quite scary!) LOL :p

DA - I KNOW what you mean about seeing the thong up and out of the jeans. I cannot STAND seeing my girls in the chapter when they bend over & all you see is crack & floss. We have a 3-B rule for formal meetings (ie, pinwear meetings) which is no Bellies, Butts, or Boobs -- we used to pass a jar around to put 25c in if your attire was deemed unacceptable. Now we just don't let you in the meeting & you have to pay the fine for missing it ;)

I am fine with the ultra low rise jeans if you have that kind of body & know how to not bend over & show your butt to all the world. Its just not attractive when you see girls that are not fat by any means, but far too big to wear those jeans - you know, the ones that swear they are a size 4 or 6 when its more like 10 or 12.

It has gotten so bad with some things that when the chapter buys shirts for certain events (like recruitment), we cut the tags out before giving the girls their shirts. So if you ordered a small, and we know you are a medium or even large, you just get the shirt size that we give you with the tags cut out (we cut all the tags out - even on the smalls for the itty-bitty girls). Its a pain to keep them separate, but nothing is worse than a girl who needs a medium trying to squeeze her boobs or belly roll into a small while wearing a shirt around campus with our name on it!

I'd also like to add that with the low rise jeans they DO make low rise bikinis and thongs. So no one has any excuse for underwear hanging out.

Anyone else finding themselves wearing more and more skirts these days? When I was in my early 20's I wore jeans to hang out in, now days I am just as likely to want to hang out in an ankle length skirt.

No, I nearly always wear dress pants. I do so much running around at work, that I need comfy shoes (ie: flat shoes!) and pants. Forget hose.. it would be snag city on all of the equipment I'm around.

You must be tall. Us short people look like munchkins in long skirts. I do love the look and wish I could pull it off.

At home-- it's jeans or khakis. Out on the town.. yes to skirts!

Yes!!!

Oh yeah. I don't really like wearing shorts anymore unless it is to go to a theme park, a pool party, or the beach. And I don't go to these places often.

Absolutely not. However, I don't mind wearing them to special occasions as much as I used to. But just for hanging out, no way. If I want to get guys attention, I'll just wear tigher jeans.

I wear skirts all the time, especially when it's really hot -- but only knee length or just-below-the-knee length. I reserve shorts for the gym.

Yeah, skirts are just soooo much more comfortable to me, esp. in the heat. I range from just above the knee to ankle length, though.

I tend to buy knee length or just below the knee for both casual and work. This isn't intended to sound insulting, but I can't picture a cute ankle length skirt. I just have visions of Amish women with their little bonnets and long skirts....haha.
