I haven't worn capris since I was a child and I'm wondering if I should give them another shot. 🤔

I'm not talking about wearing a black suit (with a different coloured shirt and tie), or a black dress, or black outwear like coats and shoes, or black lingerie or underwear. These items are pretty much staples in most peoples' wardrobes, so don't include those. And I'm not talking about funerals and formal events.

I'm talking about an entire, head-to-toe all-black outfit, not mentioned above.

I've noticed some people wear almost no black. Sometimes it's generational. My grandfather, now deceased, once remarked, "In my generation, black is associated with funerals. It's too dark to wear otherwise." And there's a whole bunch of people in my family who, strangely rarely if ever, wear black, which I find very odd.
I know it's impractical in the heat. But what else?

I love it. I wear a lot of it. I always feel good in black, and I like it on others. But I like urban, cool, edgy, formal, all that.

How about you? Do you wear it head-to-toe, and how often?

I headed about this “Funeral for My Youth” photoshoot on the radio. After I searched it on the internet, I realized that it’s more common than I initially thought.

Imagine a woman wearing all black clothing (a sexed-up version of funeral attire), draping herself over a grave while a photographer captures the moment.

So I'm a lesbian, I'm 19, girlfriend is 22. She was allowed to bring guests into her office into a day, so she took me of all people, and I met her coworkers! It was an all women's office, with only women working there. The costumers also were about 70% women.

What took me by surprise though, was the length of their skirts, my girlfriend's included!

I don't know if my parents are just old or something, but I was always taught, "NEVER wear skirts above the knee in an office setting! It's VERY unprofessional!"

But there my girlfriend and her coworkers were... the LONGEST length was C, which is already ABOVE the knee. But most of the women there wore shorter lengths than that. D and E seemed to be by far the most common lengths, with E being slightly more common. And some women even went close to F... not EXACTLY F, but close.

My girlfriend herself had on E. Well above her knees. I asked her if it was a casual day, and she said no, this is how they ALWAYS dress.

They all looked great! Not unprofessional at all. And besides showing a good amount of leg, the upper body was 100% covered, as expected in an office setting.

Maybe it has to do with the office being women's only, and not having to worry about sexual harassment as much. Or how the boss is just super chill/kind.

But the customers there usually don't see the employee's skirt length anyway, as the office is full of desk jobs they're behind... they only see their skirt length if they get up to show a customer something.

If this is generally acceptable though, I might as well go ahead and buy a couple of nice office skirts that are E length, just like my girlfriend's! 4 inches above the knee, I'd assume.

Yes, I thought of this while I was shaving.

It's very simple and versatile, it can look classy with proper hairstyle, shoes and accessories.
It is a midi length (it's actually a mini dress but it's too long on me :D ) meaning it's around the knees long.

On women, which body shape (yes shape, so these are just examples, not every type will look exactly like this) do you prefer or find more attractive?

When i say hyper feminine, i mean women who dress extremely girly/feminine, wear mainly only dresses, pink, jewelry, get their nails done, heels, skirts? or if they're too girly can it be off putting to a man, whats your reason for your answer?

I don't paint my nails. I only cut them regularly and cut off the excess skin, so my nails never stand out in any way. They chip easily if I paint them because I have to do work around the house. Also I never notice anyone's nails 99% of the time so I can't justify spending money to get them done at a salon. Plus, anything on top of my nails feels uncomfortable.

So, I never really got the hype. I know lots of females that spend a lot of money on it regularly.
