Modest dressing in the sun

Yes I love the sun, after all I am a brit and starved of my vitamin D so naturally I run out and absorb what rays I can at any given oppotunity.

However in a culture where “how low can you go” is almost a cliche, not to mention fashionable. For a girl with considerable sharam and hayaa (ie me) summer fashion is a headache entirely unrelated to sun stroke.

Basically I want to wear skirts, and I am wondring is there any style that won’t leave me looking like Mary-Lu from some hillbilly ranch (too long), or like various other ill dressed people.<too many to mention,

Just let it be noted I am referring to those length of skirts that look all togeather wrong.

Some thing you people might want to note. I’m not a petite size 6 in the UK, neither for that matter am I a UK size 8, so im thinking not so tight fitted. We want to cover my lumps and bumps not accentuate. And the querkier the better. Different and sexy = good.

(Ordinary will do as I’m desperate.)

Rollneck tops and those of the same kind are :nonono: for various rea\sons. I’m not keen on showing leg either.

All in all poeple, help me.

O and I hate jeans.

:help:

Yea - i need help too!

I was thinking: skirt with high loose suede boots. With a tanktop with office blouse beneath.

:bummer:

THe boots arent appealing, Id rather wear dolly shoes or ballet pumps. Lakin then its the leg thing again.

knee length pencil skirts ... or knee length slightly flared but fitted skirts .... like 50s style skirts but not as dramatic.

Yup, those are the skirts I like, however From the knees down one does have legs. Id rather not show my legs remember. Those skirts are fashionable but impractical for me - religiously.

hiccup, send me your size and I'll get my mom to make one for you. smile She makes all of mine, and recently made one for a friend. I live in hot weather 24/7, and I have no problems wearing these skirts.

:nono4:

burqa pehna karo larki :mad:

No thankyou aunty irem

You know what is really in…all the chicks in NYC are wearing those pleated minis. :love:

Hiccup, you can wear it with knee-high boots .... you don't like that though. You can go for longer skirts instead.

They have a lot of nice pants (trousers) out too. I like the kind that are fitted but have a boot cut or a a bit of a flare from the knees down. They look good with thin heels.

What…even the fat ones? Gross :yukh:

Xtreme, thereare no fatchicks in NYC. If there are..I must have some selective blindness.

bataa rahaa hoon!! :smash:

I am unable to help without visuals.

The ones pleated all the way look very cute too, haina? I have seen these minis at the mall which are probably as long as where the first layer of this skirt falls. Might aswell just get a frill and fix it on top of the panty!

^ Now you are using the ole noggin FF> Good job!! :k:

I have beautiful legs if I was a woman I would go for those short skirts.

Matty, those skirts are so freakin hot! hot! hot!

You can't have the best of everything now can you!

Just go to a nude beach. No worries. Everybody will be naked. So you won't feel very naked. It's all about the feel. What you feel inside is what really counts.
