    We could start a new variation of the clothes freedom days, and have a minimum
    once a week skirt day :) My first instinct is still always to go for the jeans or trousers, so still a work in progress.

    I have found myself slipping into a trousers person but this week I have forced myself to wear skirts on 2 days and I felt fab. Go for it KC you will get used to it eventually.

    I don't mind skirts and dresses when it is lovely and warm and sunny :D But I do head for Jeans and Trousers if there is even a slight nip in the air or I get corned beef legs (not attractive :o). Can't be bothered with stockings and things unless it is a very special occasion ;)

    Thick tights, boots and a dress is OK in the depths of winter though :)

    M&S have lots of cargos in at the moment, full length and cropped. I must admit I'm more into the capri trousers/cropped trousers, but it depends on what you want them for and the look you want. I do think the capri ones can look quite dressy if you want them too, but then you can have them more casual with a t-shirt too. Hope you find what you want.
    To wear cropped, I'd have to alter my stride just as much as if I wore a skirt. And I need to wear them for work too, and cropped for that are a complete no-no. Plus they'd be as chilly as a skirt. And, um, I don't like the look of them on me :D
