I wouldn't wear really short dresses anymore - just don't feel comfortable in them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As I've gotten older, I like longer dresses, but my legs come up to my ears, and I'm not very tall, so when I wear a short skirt,I've got to be really conscious.
As I grew up, I learned what worked for me. That's where the short dresses came from. And you can't dance in a long dress.
I'm five feet tall - I'm very petite - so for me, if I'm wearing a skirt or dress, it needs to be short, or else it makes me look frumpy. I need to wear either something really short or a maxi dress; anything in between just looks weird.
I have a lot of social engagements, and I like to dress up for them. I try to wear what I feel comfortable in, as self-confidence is so much about how you look. Generally, I love to wear long dresses; they make you feel special.
I live in jeans and own a lot of them. I'm much more comfortable in trousers and T-shirts, and I don't often wear dresses.
Your dresses should be tight enough to show you're a woman and loose enough to show you're a lady.
I like to wear skirts long or short.
I find that even the simplest of dresses, if it has the correct seaming and the correct fabric, whatever shape or size you are, it can change the way you hold yourself.
I liked my skirts short because I wanted to run and catch the bus to get to work.
In the days when I wasn't being taken seriously, I wore long skirts - very conservative. But now, I dress any way I want to.
