Who else loves to wear a skirt or dress?

I dress up nice for work because of my job level and I typically have to interact with a lot of different people. Most of my peers will usually wear nice slacks and I frequently do as well. But I have to say that I am about 80% skirt or dress and once in a while some nice slacks, especially now that the cold weather is coming.

On the weekends thought I rarely dress up nice for anything. In fact if most people ran into me they would think I was some pauper who appeared from nowhere :) at home I am all about comfort, sweat pants and pajamas :)

Zumbagirl, That was so nice of you to also comment. I'm going through my closet to clean out dresses that I do not like or ever wear & I'm going shopping soon since fall & winter are finally here. My area never gets very cold so dresses feel great.
mtF, mid 50's, always a girl since childhood, HRT (Spiro, E & Fin.) since 8-13. Hormone levels are t at 12 & estrogen at 186. Face lift & eye lid surgery in 2014. Abdominoplasty/tummy tuck & some facial surgery May, 2015. Life is good for me. Love long nails & handsome men! Hopeful for my GRS & a nice normal depth vagina maybe by late summer. 5' 8", 180 pounds, 14 dress size, size 9.5 shoes. I'm kind of an elegant woman & like everything pink, nice & neet. Love my nails & classic Revlon Red. Moving back to Florida, so excited but so much work moving

Unfortunately I am mostly unable to wear what I would like. But when I can I wear tights under my track pants (I like the feeling of constriction ) but given the choice I would be in a skirt or dress most of the time.

You are going to both extremes with that. Tights & trackies
Yes! I'm single
And you'll have to be pretty f'ing amazing to change that

I love skirts.  The right cut of a dress is also fantastic.

I love skirts, so much more freedom of movement and comfort. I scored an awesome awesome one last week thrift shopping. It's that heavy-bouncy type fabric that I love and best of all it fit perfectly. I had to guess what size it was since the tag was mostly illegible :)  The pinstripe one I picked up though was pretty loose though.. win some loose some  ;D

I love wearing skirts I wear them when the weather is warm enough but I need to loose some more weight to be able to look good in the dresses that I like

I like a smart skirt suit for business. I feel really good in the right outfit.

Dresses for occasions are a real lift. High heels and matching accessories. What joy!

But for practicality most of the time is pants/jeans.

A flowy skirt is great for the beach, though.

I think they're great! I especially love pastel and frilly ones like this.
Princess Peachie is such an inspiration to me!

I like wearing pants, too. Especially cute pants and things like that. But dresses and skirts are adorable! I also really like candy coloured tutus!

I also love dresses and skirts as after so many years living in purgatory, I find wearing a dress just above the knee or slightly shorter or a skirt and top especially liberating. I am lucky as I live in Victoria Australia and in winter I can wear a dress or skirt with leggings or tights and in summer go with bare legs although I prefer to wear 7 denier open toe panty hose or stockings.
My favourite dress shop is called Dream Diva and they do 80% of their sales on line, although I generally buy in store when I drive up the 100kms up to Melbourne for my doctors visits or just for fashion shopping. See my latest acquisitions of:

I especially like the second one as its in my size - 20 and three inches above the knee. This is from Dream Diva in Richmond who are very Trans friendly.

I absolutely adore skirts and dresses. I actually love how they feel and look.

And I know that this might sound strange, but in our current society, only woman can wear them without judgement. I feel that is something I have earned by going down this path.

I wear skirts around 94% of my free time, dresses and pants make up the remainder, based on circumstances. At work I have an assigned female uniform.

I prefer both and when younger I loved to wear jumpers.

I don't really like either and generally avoid situations where it may be socially expected to wear dresses or skirts.  I have a whole bunch of long skirts, but wear them maybe once a month...if that. Sometimes I will go 8 or 9 months without ever wearing a skirt.

I love skirts and dresses! I tend towards slightly below the knee but a very good natal female friend is slowly encouraging me to go with shorter skirts, just above the knee.

And while I do love dresses, I absolutely love the ability to combine skirts and blouses into a wide array of clothing options.

I LOVE long skirts & dresses, but since my wife dosent want me to wear them, I have to wait until she leaves for a while 7 then I put on an assortment of her dresses. They are  so much more liberating than pants!  I even found a wedding dress that the local thrift store threw away, & I put that on. It was a little small around the chest, but I was glad I had a chance to wear one!  Esther

I adore skirts and dresses. Especially a cute summer dress when the sun is shining, just so much cooler, comfortable and just a nice look.
