But I DO think Chevron would look different. <br /><br />Want to call your attention to something you said, that I think deserves a moment of notice. The thing about not having little girls because they'd look like ragamuffins, and that it's somehow ok for the boys, "because they can get away with it." Statements like that, and that belief in general is how things get so messed up for women AND MEN in society. It's the reason that girls at the gym are wearing lipstick and eyeliner and the men feel just fine looking like Bill the Cat. I'm just pointing it out because I have a little girl (and a little boy). And I now notice how often these expectations we place on them, get in their way. And why is it ok for men to run around looking schlumpy? That's my next question. Respect my landscape, and make some effort for pete's sake. That statement probably just came out of your mouth without you even noticing. You are probably a woman who is in favor of equality, etc. bla bla. But that's just it, these things just come out of our mouths. I do it too. But I'm thankful when people call me on it. Just thought I'd point it out. <br /><br />Good luck with the Chevron skirt, I bet it will look great on you.<br /><br />best,<br />Natalieslocumnavigatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14489201956250368935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32806324.post-20006664848953324502013-05-11T14:19:32.379-06:002013-05-11T14:19:32.379-06:00My maxi skirt has a fold-over band that when unfol...My maxi skirt has a fold-over band that when unfolded, goes clear up to my armpits. I have to do a lot of folding and bunching to wear it. But it really is so comfy. I am just not sure how "hip" I look!Shireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821138690479013717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32806324.post-86674592877284712772013-05-01T22:39:20.249-06:002013-05-01T22:39:20.249-06:00I don't really get the maxi skirt trend (I don...I don't really get the maxi skirt trend (I don't hate 'em, but I don't love 'em, either), but then I've never been particularly hip. Knowing me, I'll start to think they're kinda nice-looking about six months after they go out of style.Kimberly Bluestockinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18437063911115422205noreply@blogger.com
