[quote="Eileen (SO)" The occasional breeze is exquisite

I'm with Eileen. My loft has a balcony and I like to sit out there on nice evenings with a glass of wine or other liquid libation and read the paper or surf the net (thanks to Wi-Fi), or even chat on the phone. Many evenings I am in a skirt and being a SoCal girl sans hose and the feeling as gentle breeze causes the hem to flutter and softly caress your legs is just divine.
Granted one has to be careful in strong breezes especially with fuller skirts still that is part of being a girl. Yes slacks and jeans have their place and I wear them but when offered the choice I will go with a skirt every time!
