Leather Lady




I had to drive to work today since I needed the car for meetings which meant I could wear my skirt and boots that arent practical to ride my bike in. I don't know about you but I usually dress based on how I'm commuting. Usually I ride my bike to work and its not far so I can wear skirts and heels etc however, if I want to wear my hair differently or more fancy or a pencil skirt or higher heels it only really works on the days I need to use the car.  Bike riding in a pencil skirt doesnt work all that well (YES I DID TRY IT:)

Its rainy then sunny so we dont actually know if spring is coming or it still just a bit of tease from an early peek of spring. Hence I wont pack away my favorite dark colors for awhile yet!!

Hope you had a super day.  What is you main mode of travel to work and do you have to plan your wardrobe based on travel considerations?

  1. What a lovely outfit. Very pretty. You pull off leather like no one else.

    I'd like to try riding a bicycle in a pencil-skirt. I've done motorcycle-riding in a tutu and that was easy.

    In answer to your question, I ride my motorcycle every chance I get. It took a while before I learned how to manage it in formal dress. I wear heavy boots underneath my suit-pants, stow my suit-jacket in luggage and wear a leather riding-jacket. Once, while changing into my suit in the parking lot of a courthouse, a man watching me came over and exclaimed, "You're just like Superman!" I was flattered.

  2. Love this skirt! I commute by bus and have to walk a lot but I enjoy the exercise. Based on that I must wear comfortable shoes which really knocks down an otherwise good outfit. But, oh well. I walk a lot on the job so don't ever wear heels. I love your boots here and would grab them up for sure!

    1. Thanks Joni... I know what you mean about walking alot, I'm usually running from meeting to meeting so if not on my bike I'm walking downtown etc.
