Sightings "in the wild"

[Hayseed]

I'm not sure whether the "sighting" I saw yesterday at the public library counts or not. Anyway, an Hispanic man, about 30 y.o., came in wearing what I think is called a shirtdress, pink with small flower patterns on it. It extended down well past the waist to about mid-thigh or an inch or so lower. But, he was also wearing a pair of blue jeans.

As for the top, I am sure the manufacturer and retailer who sold it did so as women's wear.

Maybe he was just testing the waters and may ditch the jeans at the right time.

I have a few dresses and tunics that I use that way too. Not anything with patterns on though, just solid colors. My missus thinks its a lot more acceptable for whatever reason compared to using tights/leggings.

Seen this noon (27th January) crossing the road at the junction of Magdalen St and Magpie Rd in Norwich, UK, a man with bright-red hair (dyed), a coat, a black light-weight mini-skirt and black-and-white horizontally striped socks/tights.

Great - always loved Norwich since I used to live in Norfolk - a long time ago now.
