Why I wear dresses and skirts everyday

[@beverlymitchell1892]

I wear dresses and skirts every day for the same reasons - I feel more comfortable and much happier in these clothes!

[@MrsBee-uo2lc]

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. I’m 40 and just starting my dress/skirt only journey. I appreciate your point of view. I too think it’s way more comfortable and fun. I think I’m going to truly turn it into a hobby by including learning how to sew my own dresses. 😊

I wear dresses and skirts all year round and love it. The aultum, winter and early spring months can be cold, rainy and chilly here in the UK and not to mention we do have very strong gusty winds. As you probably know wind can be a nuisance if you are wearing a dress or skirt , and on many occasions I had to struggle to hold them down or they will defiantly blow up high or even blow over my head, which has happened to me. But thank god for woolen leggings or tights that I wear underneath my dresses and skirts to keep me warm and covered up incase of those marilyn Monroe moments. I enjoyed your video and thanks for sharing it xxxxx

I am nearly 84, and have started wearing skirts and dresses. For the first time in decades, I feel feminine and pretty, and being more comfortable is a bonus. I especially love maxi and even full length clothes.

[@thedabler8470]

That is wonderful 😊 Clothing can be a fun expression of our personalities that we can embrace all our lives. I am so glad you are enjoying it!

Thank you for sharing your experience and encouragement. I've thought about wearing skirts and dresses every day. I tried it a couple years ago but didn't stick with it because it was easier to just put on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I recently turned 51 and I've been thinking about the way I dress and wear my hair. I feel like it's time for me to have a more feminine, grown-up look. :) I know a lot of this has to do with my mindset, and not thinking dresses and skirts are only for when you want to dress up. :)

[@thedabler8470]

Thank you for your comment Melissa! I have noticed that the more I have approached the minimalistic style of dressing it took a LOT of stress out of getting dressed every day. We are always a work in progress, listen to that little voice that is speaking to you about how you want to present yourself. It’s very freeing! I am 2 years into this life style now and still loving it. My year got a bit derailed by family illness and this channel has been neglected, and with everything it’s a work in progress! I hope I will have more content in the future. 😊

@@MelissaGrimes9371 Thank you to this lady encouraging us women of all ages to return to skirts and dresses. Such a lovely decision to make. Made a couple of skirts, wearing one with black tights, so comfy and happy to be back into it. I think personally, we Women had lost the way in being ourselves, got used to putting jeans on all the time for the sake of it. We WOMEN are special, and should spend time in being proud of our Gender, Our Heavenly Father created us specially for specific needs, we honour that. (He does state in the bible, A Woman should not dress like a man, and a man should not do the opposite).So thankfully, some women are coming online and looking happier,more at ease returning to who WE WOMEN REALLY ARE. God's Chosen Gender. So Proud and Respect our Lord and heavenly fathers teachings. Pray he continues to guide us safely everyday to fulfil our roles he created us to do. Amen. 🕊️✝️🙏🇬🇧. (💐💐💐💐 For all special mother's, grandmothers, and aunties, we are all WOMEN of our United Kingdom, and proud to be so. Xx

I can't believe I found this video! I too have a medical condition that causes my waistline to change from day to day. I also have pain that accompanies this, so I have wondered if switching to dresses would help. I too LOVED 90s fashion, especially the "granny" dresses with tiny floral prints. Thank you SO much for taking the time to chat with us about this, because it has really helped me see that switching over to dresses may not be such a crazy idea after all. ;)

[@thedabler8470]

I’m so glad I was able to help! ❤

[@SarahDial-f5x]

So glad to have found you. I enjoyed your video very much as I too am considering an all skirts/dresses wardrobe. I must say you look so pretty and youthful at 60. Your hairstyle is very flattering and so are your glasses. I’ll look forward to seeing you again. God bless.💕~S.D.

[@paulah4476]

I live in Maine and the winters can get cold however I wear dresses every day without any problem. I wear a cardigan over my dress, and I wear fleece tights footed and footless with ankle boots and knee-high boots and If I get too hot, I can easily remove the layers I find it quite comfortable and actually warmer than jeans and stylish and feminine and I always feel put together. I agree that dresses are very forgiving with weight fluctuations. Dresses do take the stress out of wearing clothes for me because I no longer have to decide what shirt to wear with what pants. In the late spring and summer no layers needed and less layers needed in the fall so wearing dresses are a no brainer for me and can be worn year-round without any issues and I love it. In a sea of women wearing yoga pants and sweatpants and female masculinity, be the feminine beauty in the world that God made females to be. I do chores in my dresses without any problem I do like to wear an apron when I do but it has nothing to do with the dress, I just like keeping my clothes clean. Women who are rude to other woman are rude due to their own self insecurity that's their problem not yours. You do look lovely in dresses. Dresses also provide so much room in our closet as they don't take up much space. Ladies don't leave your dresses in the closet for a special occasion wear them whenever you want. Thank you for the great video and by the way my husband loves it that I wear dresses every day and that I am feminine it's a positive lifestyle all around.

[@butchmanns8968]

I’ve been wearing skirts and dresses for about five years. I think they are more comfortable and look better on me. I also thrift most of my clothes. Finding shoes that I can wear can be a problem. Sandals are great. I find incredible jewelry at estate sale. I have also found that hats are more fun when you’re wearing a dress. As far as what other people think I’ve found that most of my friend group wear a uniform, mostly sports clothes. I’ve gotten comments but I don’t care. I tell them, “ we have all these clothes we might as well wear them”. I’m 68. At our age we can wear whatever we want. Best of luck with your channel.

[@deliad9960]

I live in Canada and I started wearing skirts and dresses in the winter, kept wearing them into summer and I am finding it very difficult to put a pair of pants on. I also shop with intension now, when i do shop.

[@petagayekrug5204]

You are an inspiration to me,I also enjoyed thrifting and wear dresses and skirts,please show us some of your outfits.

[@thedabler8470]

You can look me up on Instagram where I do show my favorite outfits. Isn’t thrifting fun? 🤩

[@eli0151]

Thank you so much for sharing! This really resonated with me (the comfort aspect with a changing waistline, love of 90s, easier dressing process) . I am at the beginning of my journey and it's wonderful to have some motivation! :)

[@thedabler8470]

I’m so happy I was able to help you with your journey. If you have Instagram I make posts quite often about my daily clothing choices.

Lovely video it gives women inspiration to do what they love . To make them feel comfortable as they are !

[@thedabler8470]

Hi @ballegirl4me, Yes! Wearing what makes us happy is what is most important 😊

[@JenniferPrestwidge]

I like the style of dresses from the sixties and seventies era

[@cynthiahill3426]

I agree❤

[@essieessie5399]

After gaining weight during "the shutdown", I started wearing only dresses and never stopped. I even wear dresses for gardening & camping. I find nothing more comfortable. Surprisingly, I get many compliments from men who tell me they appreciate my feminine look.

[@lindaed3594]

What a good looking lady you are & you certainly don’t look 60 here! Wow! Beautiful jersey/cardigan…style & colour…very nice indeed & amazing it’s thrifted too! Love that your hubby is interested in helping you get nice outfits too. The story of the coat he found you is great

[@tracyheath6076]

Hi there I enjoyed your video I too am 60 years old and I try to wear a dress or a skirt every day. I also wear a head covering of some sort because I just think it’s cute and helps keep my hair intact and it adds to my outfit, I live on a homestead so I usually end up wearing tennis shoes with my skirts but when I go to town or church then of course I wear different types of shoes either Mary Jane’s or boots etc. and you are right it is fun to have that anticipation every day to dress up as what I call it and look pretty This was actually a challenge for me to change the way that I dress at home because usually I’m in the garden the greenhouse or working where I know I’m gonna be dirty, but it adds a smile to peoples faces when they see someone in dress or they put that extra effort to dress up so that’s why I do it and you feel better too with more of a self-confidence. the only issue that I have wearing a skirt is when I am trying to blow out the garage and my skirt keeps getting caught in the blower so I have to tie it together somehow where it won’t do that ha ha

[@thedabler8470]

I love this! I work with the elderly and they LOVE seeing what I’m going to wear everyday. I’m so glad that you have found the joy of dressing for your self. 🩷

[@cynthiahill3426]

I just came upon your channel and I'm looking forward to hearing more from your experience , I'm 71 years,, and have recently decided I want to wear dresses and skirts more often,, I love getting dressed up and coordinating clothes in my closet which often leads to a fashion show for my husband, 😊 I'm looking forward to learning more from you thank you❤

[@margaretx582]

Good for you. Ive started wearing dresses too and they are so much for comfortable. 🙂 Id love to see you wearing some of your skirts and dresses.

[@abundantlyinspired]

I totally enjoyed hearing your thoughts about the full time dress/skirt wearing!❤❤I did this when my son was young and totally enjoyed it. And hello from a fellow overalls lover!😁

[@thedabler8470]

Hello! 😃 I don’t hear a lot from the overalls people, I love that you wear them 🙌 ❤️

[@carolcostello2183]

Please make more videos. This was wonderful!❤

[@paolamunoz1833]

Wonderful, I start using skirts and I feel the same way. I don't wear high heels and I am short, with long skirt don't match very good, but I don't care, I feel comfortable and I love the feeling, I am not good at all to match clothes, ...but it just makes me happy don't care what other think.

[@leona6701]

Thank you so such for sharing. I switched from dressing like everyone else to long dresses and skirts. I went on a journey to dressing modestly as the Bible teaches and I love it! I've had people look at me funny and it took a while for my husband to get used to it but I've been VERY comfortable and confident. Although I know everyone does what they feel is right for them, it makes me wonder if jeans were ever really meant for women. God Bless you.

[@kerriekean7401]

Hi Jen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about wearing skirts and dresses. I have just been thinking about doing this also but it's kind of scary as being in my 60's I have worn jeans/pants for so long I have been tussling with the practical aspect of cleaning the house wearing a dress as I'm not sure what to do with all the fabric when I'm crouching cleaning the shower base and walls etc. Also not quite sure how to manage the colder weather with all the cold air circulating under the dress/skirt. Like you my stomach can fluctuate in size which is very distressing when wearing more form fitting clothing! Thanks again as you have given much food for thought regarding what to wear and how to layer it all!!

[@thedabler8470]

Hi @kerriekean! I love your message these are very important things to think about when we consider wearing dresses on a daily basis. I have been working in elder care for a number of years, as you can imagine there is housekeeping personal care etc with this type of job. I have comfortably been able to wear my dresses during all of this. I am preparing a new video and these are great questions for me to answer 😊

[@ivanajukicgloban6627]

Thank you for your story!❤

[@mhwaldron]

I love your upbeat attitude. I do agree that wearing dresses daily is much more simple and makes decisions a lot easier. I try to wear dresses in the summer because I’m not a shorts gal and it’s very hot and humid where I live. Have to say that I do feel more feminine in a dress than jeans which at age 67 never seem to fit right😂 Thanks for inspiring me to continue throughout the year.

[@thedabler8470]

Hi @mhwaldron, Thank you so much for your kind words 😊 I am happy that I can help my sisters feel more comfortable wearing what makes them the most comfortable!

[@charityalice5502]

Thanks for your insight I am motivated to do dresses

[@heartquaked]

Great video! I did a challenge last summer where I wore the same dress 100 days in a row and it made me realize pants are not for me. I’m trying to transition to only skirts and dresses now. I wish you were still on KZbin. How are you doing? Edit- I found you on Instagram - hope you don’t mind that I’ve added you!

[@thedabler8470]

Hello! I am well, how are you? Let me tell you, I have been trying to get my act together and post here. I have a plan of action even made a short in the spring😊 I was shocked at how many views this video has had.

I feel more comfortable in skirts.I felt convicted through the preaching but failed God and feel like people think I wear them for a show.

[@pamdawson8598]

You are not responsible for any good or bad thoughts other folks have. You know why you wear skirts. Others aren't God, they cannot know your motives. God sees and understand. It is not a legalism.
