Posted by Rosaknowsyavery cool! wow, the beach. Definitely can see a lot of ladies wearing really feminine free flowing dresses.
Totally acceptable in my neck of the woods but I live on the beach, so normally walking around barefoot with a bikini is fine too.
I would suggest panties, stockings or bending down in a feminine manner.
But too cute! Reminds me of the 60-70's minis. Plus the illusion that mini dresses create that your legs are longer can be flattering. : )
I don't see anything wrong with how anyone dresses tbh.
Posted by RosaknowsyaPosted by CopperDoveHave you noticed the style of bathing suit has also returned from that era? I love it! So feminine. High waisted bikinis!
It's interesting that even though a lot of time has passed since minis were first the rage, minis were MUCH shorter at their peak than now. For example:
If you watch reruns of the Brady Bunch, you'll also see how short skirts and dresses could be, in the late 60s and early 70s.

Posted by iPootMagicThat's more my style . I don't wear little dresses without tights, a jacket, or a bellero *^___^*Posted by lisabethur8That jacket is nice!Posted by Rosaknowsyavery cool! wow, the beach. Definitely can see a lot of ladies wearing really feminine free flowing dresses.

Posted by CopperDoveIf cc (sensitiveblues) had not deleted, it would probably be easier.
@Montgomery I'm trying to find the picture you posted on DXP with a woman in a mini dress, or mini skirt, long scarf, and knee high boots in a colour that match the hat that the model is wearing. If you can post again, that would be great. I really liked the outfit and it's driving me crazy that I can't find it with search.

Posted by starwarsGreat! That helps a lot. I've done well with some Forever21 stuff too. Good idea about Korean sites. Japanese can work too. My feet aren't tiny (I'm US size 6, 36 UK) so at least it's easy to find shoes and boots that fit.Posted by CopperDoveugh! I feel you girl! I do the same! the ones that usually fit are from Forever21
@starwars I like the pictures you posted. Where do you like to shop for your mini dresses? It might help me to know because we're a similar height. Sometimes I have to buy micro mini so they're short enough on me.
Missguided, Topshop , Zara. If you could find a good Korean site that ships to your countery then that'd be great, its hard to find a good one with high q though!

Posted by Feral_doeI have long legs proportionally too (even though I'm short in height) and I know what you mean - sometimes I feel that way in mini dresses, but when I look at myself in the mirror, or remind myself that long legs are considered ideal - even freakishly long ones - I feel comfortable again.
Mini dresses make me uncomfortable.
I already have long legs and whenever I try to wear one, I feel like I'd be walking around with nothing but a shirt.
Posted by Feral_doeAh, okay, that is a bit of a problem, no question. lolPosted by CopperDoveI'm 6ft tall. Creeps would be looking up at my business no problem lol.Posted by Feral_doeI have long legs proportionally too (even though I'm short in height) and I know what you mean - sometimes I feel that way in mini dresses, but when I look at myself in the mirror, or remind myself that long legs are considered ideal - even freakishly long ones - I feel comfortable again.

Posted by Feral_doelol. I watched that scene in Legally Blonde just now to look at clothing, for fun, and anyone in a skirt was well protected by their hemline for sure.Posted by CopperDoveLol.

I have to be careful in minis when doing things like picking things up. I try to remind myself to lower my body by bending my knees. Good thigh workout.click to expand

I see alot of this kind of dress wear and I think every female in my area code owns a long, white hippie skirt too.
Or the mini dress I prefer is rather free flowing. Still hippie mentality.

Posted by starwarsthat's realy cute, starwars. very flowery. for me, the off shoulder isn't my style though.
you can never go wrong with a mini dress. I love them! they are as comfy as PJ's. there was a time where all what I used to wear were mini dresses and playsuits. lately ive been more into midi dresses, but I still rock some mini ones.
I bought this one, haven't worn it yet.
I'm thinking of pairing it with brown boots and white socks to make it extra hippie
Posted by CopperDovethat's waaayyy short for my taste. lol I think it's still pretty especially for women who are more daring.

Posted by CopperDovethey look so proper and sweet.
From a famous episode of The Brady Bunch, because it shows mini dresses of varying hem lengths.
Dirty minds hush about this clip - don't ruin the innocence of my youth
Posted by dolluxeI actually have a dress similar to the one in the middle.
I like wearing peasant dresses. I've always loved boho style , it's so laid back and girly
