Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.
When you mentioned the shorter jacket I had to put together an outfit.
I agree with Rm Anderson there are times in the winter that you cant wear certain things . The jacket is very warm so I could wear it now but this morning it was 25 degrees with a wind chill in the low teens. No way could I go out even with fleece lined tights I would still freeze my butt off. On Tuesday it will be up in the 40's maybe I can wear this out then

I went to the company Xmas party yesterday, seeing many people I hadn't seen in a while since my pre-retirement exit. Two immediately noticed my new glasses. Neither mentioned anything else I was wearing.
To the second one I retorted "what, everyone notices my new glasses but no one notices my new pink pencil skirt?!"
That got them to look down quickly. One suggested that I need stilettos to finish the look.
What's a guy need to do to get a new skirt noticed?

At winter's worst I had normal support hose on, fleece-lined tights and fleece-lined leggings. half-slip, knee-length skirt, kilt. Above: t-shirt, long-sleeved shirt, sweater, and a hooded down jacket. Trade the kilt for an overcoat also worked.

This is perhaps my favourite outfit of yours. I think it sits well on you and I like the balance of contrast between the tan and the black. Definite thumbs up
At first glance I said what the hell - then realized he was standing in front of the oven in the background creating
a two tone tiered skirt effect.
With striped sweater underneath that leather jacket its got to be nice and warm - now get something on that head
and a white scarf you are good to go and face the elements !
I like the black and tan combination. Very Fashion Forward.
"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

Maybe you shoulda worn heels!
I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman.
We have a cat who is an indoor only cat. We take him for a walk on a leash twice a day and he lets us know when he is ready. After his afternoon walk I remembered to go out and get my cell phone from my vehicle. Our cat saw the opportunity and bolted out the door. I called for my wife and we went out in search of our cat. He is predictable where he likes to run, which is behind a hedge in front of the house next door. My wife was wearing a raspberry colored sweat suit and I was wearing a tee shirt and an above the knee skirt. We must have been a sight running after and calling our cat. We found him and caught him within five minutes and fortunately no one saw us.
Skirtsdad like I mentioned My favorite outfit of yours is the pub outfit with the gray boots from last year. I also think the last outfit with the red coat and the brown boots was also very nice. I love the wide belt but don't you think that you should have at least put on a skirt
Having looked at SkirtsDad's published wardrobe list, there's no point in trying to compete there!
Re: cats. We have five, of which only two ever venture into the house, but essentially all of them are 'outside' cats and they DO control the vermin. In 17years here I have only once caught sight of a rat and that was a dead one, having been slain by one of the aforementioned.
Here I am feeding the 'barn' cats, who live where we keep hay & straw and bicycles. They never venture inside the house. My little red tartan number might appeal to SkirtsDad. When I go walkies, it's with big dogs and we go minimum three miles each time......often klited.

Sounds like they were trying to unsee you
Maybe they are now!
Actually I think Skirtyscot had it. I was too much for them. Too much in the sense they knew they couldn't compete so instead wanted to make my spectacles the topic. Yeah, that must be it.
