I do wear slips, especially under a couple of dresses that are white (initiation dress included, although I was lucky and got one fashionable enough/not too dressy that it's appropriate for summer cocktail parties) and under wool skirts that are sometimes itchy.
Random question and potential further hijack - where do you find slips? I can't remember where I got my last one - not really an indication of how often I wear a slip but more likely how often I wear a skirt or dress at all - but I haven't seen them anywhere and am looking to buy some new since I have a couple of skirts that my slips on hand show at the bottom or if there's a slit in the back of the skirt. This isn't really an issue for summer since all those skirts are lined anyway but I bet in the cold Chicago winters I'd be glad for an extra layer!
