Very happy to help. It is annoying when companies do not control their prices across their various outlets. I this case they are actively working against their real physical shops.

So pleased you had a good first experience with your new skirt and you feel so good after your jaunt.DrFishnets wrote: ↑Sat Sep 21, 2024 2:53 pm Anyway, I went into town today with my new Paisley skirt on and my black t-shirt mini dress on top and a burgundy waistcoat and black tights with my Doc Martens. So far nobody cared what I was wearing. Obviously if there any bad reactions I didn’t know about them. I’m feeling very happy after the day out in town with my Paisley skirt on.

Re: Paisley pattern midi skirt
My blue snakeskin-pattern skirt arrived this morning. I handed my order form to the woman at the service desk and she saw a small image of the skirt on it. She smiled and said: "Is this for you?" I replied nonchalantly: "Yeah. It's for my holiday. Just something to pull on by the pool over my swimwear". "OK", she replied:"What a good idea!". She disappeared into a back room for a moment and returned with the package, handed it to me and said: "Enjoy your holiday!" That reminded me of an earlier post I made when I said : NOBODY CARES. They don't care. A guy finds a long skirt comfortable on holiday and people think - why not?
Tried it on at home. The good points are that it's nice fabric and a neat fit. It is way longer than anything else I have ever worn, coming down to the ankles and that makes me a bit afraid of tripping over it. I suppose I could always do what we did with school skirts decades ago and roll the waistband: we used to call it "the Trutex Trick". It's also quite full - there is a lot of it. This means care has to be taken closing doors, and some draping is necessary when sitting and that will take some getting used to. The quality of the finish isn't great; there were quite a few loose threads and I spotted a small flaw in the pattern. However, for a mere £6, I have nothing to complain about.

Regarding doors.... When wearing a long skirt, you must be careful when closing the car door.
Sitting.... One convenient thing about wearing a long skirt is that you don't have to worry about others seeing your underwear.
