Re: Most "Freestyle" outfit you've worn in public
I have argyle pattern tights, and they certainly do raise a few eyebrows. The black grey and white ones are pretty damn surprising to most people; the blue and turquoise ones even more so! But they're not very comfortable to wear, so they rarely see the light of day.
Keep on skirting,

Such a great outfit though it's too hot for tights at the momentSkirtsDad wrote:Happy to oblige but can't promise they'll all be as daring. This one only had a short outing to the bus stop to wait for my best friend who was coming for lunch. We would often have a night on the town together, and she would sometimes borrow my skirts.dillon wrote:That's seriously daring, SkirtsDad. Please post more.

Re: Most "Freestyle" outfit you've worn in public
My most freestyle outfit was a beaded and sequined special occasion dress I borrowed from a friend at church. It's black so I wore black hose and black patent leather heels with a strap and fake jewel on the front. The special occasion was the annual fund-raising auction at the school I used to work for.
The Fund-Raising manager told everyone afterwards that I was "the belle of the ball," as my friend who lent me the dress said I would be.
My avatar shows the bodice. Sometime I'll post the full-length shot another friend of mine took of me.

Dave, that sounds like a winner indeed. Looking forward to the picture. I've not worn a dress out in public yet. Actually I haven't even found a dress that i'd wear out in public yet. I have a few I wear around the house though.

Thank you Gordon. Except when I'm working dresses are about all that I wear, both at home and in public. Take the plunge my friend, the water's fine!

Forgot to mention that I wore the outfit below on a trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art late last month: a black blouse with a printed skirt, open toed black pumps with four inch heels, a black handbag and a strand of pearls. One of my fancier freestyling outfits that felt good to wear.
