more comfortable than tucking trousers into wellies

DevilsAdvocaat · 23/03/2009 15:46

MANATEEequineOHARA · 28/03/2009 15:41

I do sometimes, I have horses, so often wear wellies, and sometimes that happens to be when I am wearing a skirt, I think it is kind of cool

FrannyandZooey · 28/03/2009 15:47

I find that getting my fulsome calves plus tights/hold-ups/over-the-knee socks into a pair of wellies is a lot easier than getting said calves plus scrunkled up trousers into wellies. Therefore skirts + wellies = good thing.

minxofmancunia · 28/03/2009 16:46

I do in summer on walks and at festivals if it's wet.

everyone wears wellies and skirts at festivals now, usually brigtly coloured hunters or even orla keily! (mine are from asda tho

All the time, at festivals.

I don't own trousers, so I wear skirts with everything. And festivals warrant wellies.

MrsMattie · 28/03/2009 17:06

I've never worn wellies in my life. If I needed to wear wellies, I wouldn't go!

I only wear wellies on Christmas Eve but I must admit to having a certain fondness for those fashion spreads featuring a girl in a party dress or white brorderie anglais worn with wellies.

katiepotatie · 28/03/2009 21:40

my 2 year old, all the time

mollyroger · 28/03/2009 21:53

I have pirate wellies (of course) and they look utterly fab with skirts. So there.
