Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all my readers. The weather has been very mild for the time of year,
so I'm still able to go out and about wearing short skirts and bare legs, as you can see
from the photo below, taken on 30th December, when the temperature was +10 degrees Celsius.

Asos and Zara offering skirts for men
Good to see some mainstream clothing stores offering skirts for men.

it defeats the comfort benefit of wearing a skirt in the first place!

Charity shops
For those new to wearing skirts, both men and women, I always believe
the best starting point is the charity shop. There you you can try a variety

don't rely on size labels. Women's clothing sizes have changed over the years
and some of the stock in charity shops can be quite a few years old. Also the
previous owner may have shrunk the item, or altered the size to achieve a good fit.
The majority of the skirts I have were bought in charity chops for around £4 or £5 each. h
