Females who seldom wear trousers

[Rebecca54]

We had another chat over our office coffee break this morning about women who never or seldom wear trousers. It all started on Friday when we noticed that we were all in our black trousers again as autumn approaches and will probably stay like that until late spring.

We came up with (with a little help from people on here who joined in the previous thread):-

Kirstie Allsop (never wears trousers)
Dr Kate Williams (never wears trousers)
Nigella Lawson (recently seen in trousers following her slim!)
Dita von Tesse
Caroline Flack
Louise Minchin (Breakfast TV presenter)
Myleene Klasse.

Can our friends on here add to the list before our sad conversation tomorrow

Pagwatch - never wears trousers

Hths

The Queen

pag are you royalty or just MN royalty?

Didn't you already do this thread a few days ago OP?

SarkyWench never wears trousers.

And this is entirely the fault of mumsnet's S&B board. Before I went on there I only wore dresses to wedding.

Me except for dog walking. Just the wrong shape.

Black trousers to work are just another self-imposed (and lazy) uniform.

I am Big Arse Royalty

Pag.... Had a peak at your photos.....you're TINY!

I don't wear trousers. Ever. Bought my first pair of jeans in 10 years, last week. I felt so elated that I posted on here.

I don't really either, I'm a tunics/leggings, dresses/thick tights kinda girl.

Dollydowser, never seen in public wearing trousers. I partly blame S&B lot too.

Me! Wear dresses with tights and shoes or smart boots for work, leggings with dresses/tunics and boots for casual. I wear jeans once in a blue moon and abhor black trousers...

Ooh good for you Eliza22

I know I am not huge - its a matter of proportion. Flat chest but comparatively very large bum, plus short legs. It's not a good look on me

Although I have been seeing a personal trainer and I am much more balanced out now. I bought some jeans a month ago at dhs suggestion. I am getting ready to pluck up the outrage and wear them.....

I have started to wear dresses a lot, but still wear trousers for practical reasons. If you never wear trousers, what do you wear when you work out, do things like hiking and horseback riding, sitting on floor with toddler, etc etc? Not to mention when it's bad stormy weather outside?

Pretzel, what is this 'working out' you speak of?

I sit on the floor with a toddler in my knitted dress quite comfortably.

Riding does not apply, working out in leggings, tennis in skirt!

I rarely wear trousers except for going to the gym. Just prefer skirts and find them more comfortable and I think they suit me better. Stormy weather? Long coat and boots.

A pretty comprehensive list there!

I used to wear trousers or jeans all the time. But now (I'm 37) I think that skirts and dresses look so much better on me. Much more forgiving, and I feel and look more feminine, even when I am wearing boots with them.

I'm always on the lookout for skirts in Autumn and I am really enjoying getting last Autumn's Boden skirts out (the fun skirt is a favourite of mine).

I walk the dogs in the rain wearing boots and a raincoat.
I usually find that my knees survive the trauma of a bit of rain under cover of some tights. They haven't melted yet.

I can sit on the floor in a skirt and tights. they don't fall apart

I wear work out gear to work out. We are talking about clothes rather than specific sports wear,arn't we?

I wouldn't say I wear trousers just because I may have once pulled on a pair of salllopettes to ski or a fireman fancy dress outfit

my mum never wears trousers - she only wears "slacks"

FMB - never wears trousers bar pjs.

That word 'slacks' is disappearing gradually methinks. Sometimes I throw it out at home just to enjoy the 'wtf' looks I get :)

I'm sure you will look lovely in your jeans Pagwatch :)

Nearly all my colleagues at school are now into the 'black trousers' look. Hate it - boring!

I wear trousers most of the time, usually jeans.

I do have loads of skirts but tend to end up in trousers again, and the reason is that I cannot STAND the feeling of tights especially around the thighs and above!!

anyone have any tips other than wear socks (which isn't always a great look if said skirt is knee length or higher)?

OK I was just curious since I mostly saw dresses as party/formal wear before. But I'm actually going to go out in the rain in a dress and wellies right now! It's a comfy style.
