llonka thinks she needs to get in on this wearing dresses/skirts with leggings/tights thing... [lol]

llonka: But only do it if you feel comfortable with it personally. [yes] [hug]

I'm a big fan of boots
I'm sure I have way too many pairs, but I just love them.

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:08 AM

I have to wear pants/shorts to work all the time, so for me its a nice change to wear skirts.
Seems like I have been collecting the big full skirts, then I can also use them with my costumes for the Renaissance Faire.

I don't like shoes very much. I think I only have 3 pairs of boots, one is a pair of combat boots, one hiking boots to wear to work in the snow & one suede with fur trim to go with my fairy costume.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:11 AM

If i'm going to be a teacher, I need to get used to be dressy... :P lol. I wanna dress up though, just don't have the money to. tired of wearing over sized t-shirts and jeans that hide my fat.

I've just gotten into boots, they are cute! I have quite a few shoes, and I keep wanting more. lol!

tigerangel 10-26-2013 02:14 AM

I'd be embarrassed to say how many pairs of shoes, boots and sandals are in my closet.

LiviInLove 10-26-2013 02:16 AM

I have such a hard time finding shoes that fit me proper, because I'm so picky. >.< I've got small feet, but they're wide, which is just awkward.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:18 AM

Don't be embarrassed tiger! LOL!

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:21 AM

I know a lot of people don't or won't shop where I get a lot of my skirts at. I go to Goodwill, most Sunday's they have some stuff marked down to .50 cent. I bought a trench coat in there a few weeks ago for that price. All that was wrong with it was a button was loose. It is a nice coat, a little big, but I can live with that.

I just make sure to wash everything well after we get them.

I hate shopping for shoes because I have rather big feet, but they aren't wide. I wear a size 10 in most shoes.
Its about impossible to find anything cute in that size.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:23 AM

Darn I found a really cute dress on ebay but some one has a really high bid on it. :(

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:24 AM

I've never shopped on ebay.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:24 AM

Damia- I've heard about ladies getting nice stuff at thrift stores. I've thought about trying it, I dunno if hubby would go along with that idea though.

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:27 AM

Go without him.
Mine usually looks at the books in the store then goes to the car.

Actually he was really happy with a couple of things I found for him a few weeks ago. I got him 4 suit coats for $2, well a couple of them are gonna be altered to go with a costume for him for next year. We are working on Steam punk costumes.

Its a good way to be able to wear your skirts in cold weather and still stay warm.

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:33 AM

Sorry I'm getting a little distracted.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:37 AM

That sounds like fun Damia! My hubby is a stick in the mud and would never go to anything like that. :( I wish he was more of a nerd like me.

Darn, I really wanted that dress, put like 20 bucks on it and still outbid. Oh well...

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 02:49 AM

I guess that is one place where I got really lucky with Miscreant. He is a big nerd & avid reader. He can get distracted by books for a nice little while & it gives me time to shop. We have found all sorts of odd stuff at Goodwill. We have found some really old board games & even some from other countries. For me its like a treasure hunt every few weeks or months to see what I can find. I used to love yard sales, but I almost always have to work on Friday & Saturday so I never get to go to any of them.

llonka 10-26-2013 02:53 AM

Sounds like a lot of fun, I like seeing old or vintage things. I may have to take a trip to our Salvation Army.

I love shopping at Goodwill and yard sales. You never know what you will find there.

Damia Flagg 10-26-2013 03:04 AM

I miss going to yard sales. I should try to go back to the flea market sometime, but I don't really like our local one. The better one is a good drive away.

Silver Storm 10-26-2013 03:11 AM

We have an awesome flea market in the north part of town and the people that run it are really nice.

llonka 10-26-2013 03:19 AM

Flea markets sound fun too.

Anyone ever heard of fatshion? lol.

Silver Storm 10-26-2013 03:21 AM

I have not heard of it.

llonka 10-26-2013 03:24 AM

It's fashion for us fat ladies. LOL! Some of the stuff they come up with is really cute. I feel like I need to join the movement...

Silver Storm 10-26-2013 03:26 AM

That is cool. I will have to check it out sometime.
