+1. I'm also a petite hourglass, but short-waisted. Dresses make the most of my figure, so I wear them most of the time. |
Lots of people do this. I do it all the time. Boots, fleece leggings, wool dress, long coat. It's one of my favorite looks in the winter. |

I wear dresses almost exclusively. Lots of sheath style dresses at work (with tights and blazers/cardigans in winter) and looser stuff outside of work.
It's comfortable, you look put-together without much thought, and it's fast. I have some jeans and leggings, of course. I hate shorts and wear skorts because my legs are a little thicker. |
Same. I would find it very annoying to tuck pants into my tall snow boots. |
| In the summer I am 100% flowy dresses. They are so much more comfortable that shorts and a tank that cling to skin in this hot awful weather. |
| In the summer I do, because I don't like wearing shorts. |
| Summer I wear lots of linen dresses and sundresses. Winter, almost never. Tights aren’t warm enough and winter casual dresses are pretty ugly anyhow. |
| I only wear dresses to weddings. |
Why? Jeans are pretty sexy if you have a good booty. |
| Yes. I love dresses. |
Easier access. |
We don't get that much snow here. Very few people are outside for more than a few seconds when it is cold snow. You are going from a house with heat, to a car with heat, to a business or other house with heat. This isn't new york where you are walking multiple places frequently, or walking in slush or snow. |
NP, even if you aren’t outside, I don’t find tights warm enough at all, even inside the house. Nor are tights all that comfortable. No way I would want to wear tights all day around my house. I’m in a northern state, and I need more layers than tights and a long sleeve dress. |
Do you not shovel your driveway? Help an elderly neighbor? |

I found that when I had little kids I wanted to be active and not wearing skirts to the playground. And in the winter, pants make much more sense for the cold.
So while I could see this in warmer months, it doesn't make sense for about 6 months out of the year here. |
