SHOPPING!!!

In a development that is interesting to me, I've discovered that I prefer to cycle in a skirt. After wearing out a few pairs of jeans, not wanting to bother having to change pants when I get to my destination and just before I leave for home, and generally wanting to wear more skirts, I've actualy found I really enjoy cycling in them.
I'm not worried about the fabric getting caught in the wheel or chain because my bike has a chain guard as well as skirt guards on the rear wheel.
The thing is, I don't have a lot of winter skirts. Or a lot of winter shirts. I have decided that this needs to be remedied, so I decided to get this skirt:

in three different colours. I then decided to get this shirt and this shirt, because one of the big reasons for my not wearing skirts more is lack of tops which suit a skirt rather than pants. Not to mention that the Evangeline blouse is just gorgeous! Being winter, I don't want to risk getting cold, so I'm considering getting a couple of camisoles to go with them. One in white, one in "natural". Though I may change my mind about these. We'll see.
Of course, if I'm going to be cycling in a skirt, I do actually need to make sure my legs won't get too cold. So I'm getting two pairs of bloomers and a petticoat as well.
Amazing how just wanting to wear more skirts because I find them comfortable leads to an entire wardrobe change. I now have good reason to go through mine and get rid of clothes I don't wear, though :-)
