I love wearing dresses but am most comfortable wearing long flowy hippy type skirts. Chiffron material is best, it feels so feminine.

However, when I get out there as a woman full time I can see myself wearing hiking leggings, walking trousers or jeans a lot as I'm an outdoorsy type of girl. Long skirts or short dresses just aren't practical for much of the time. I would consider tight shorts but if I'm on the fells where there is bracken and heather, ticks can be a problem with exposed legs, not to mention spiky gorse, thistles and stinging nettles!

If going shopping though it would be the skirt option all the way for me, I love the look.

I also love the long, flowy type dresses!  I love to feel the clothing as it brushes against my legs, reminding me that I am the woman that I am...

This is exactly what I love about them, particularly if I have freshly shaved legs. So nice!

I've always loved dressses. They are simple to style and super feminine. An easy win. Loved them boymode too. It's quite liberating wearing a pink dress with a full beard as a guy!

I feel like the intersection of dark and light. I have a dark soul residing in me but an intense draw to the powers of good. All around I feel the constant battle between darkness and light.

I keep looking at dresses and skirts. I've found a few I like and when I get the opportunity I will have some

When a college student my first walk outside femininely was in a dress.  Attitudes were, let us say, a bit more accepting than in the community as a whole.

It took a long while for me to dress femininely at employers.  Eventually I wore a skirt, the first time that was not received very well.  I since have had other jobs and my current one is the one where I can wear any business appropriate clothing (male when flying or in a rental car though by my choice) that is feminine.

I like being able to be me for the most part in terms of what clothes I wear.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

For outdoors I love my little jean shorts. They fit tighter than mends and I love the feel as the denim protects me. In general I like shorter women's shorts

But some of this thin material, bad seams, loose threads, and otherwise bad workmanship for many clothes is disheartening.
There's a reason it's called 'fast fashion' these days.  As with most things, you get what you pay for.

I'm more of a jeans and t-shirt gal.   Some makeup and my leather jacket and I'm good to go.  That said, I have a bunch of dresses that I love.  It's a treat to rock a glam outfit now and then.
