Or you could knit them yourself. ;-)<br /><br />I might be calling you...don't be shocked and say, "Sara WHO?" when I do. :-)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12072984925282936743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3130102521697018241.post-36896464871933610102013-12-11T23:04:39.502-05:002013-12-11T23:04:39.502-05:00Hello Barbara, I've come to sit next to you on...Hello Barbara, I've come to sit next to you on the still shopping-not wrapping-cookieless bench. But we can share a pot of tea! (actually, we never bake cookies until right before Christmas and I'm one of those despicable wrap-all-night types, which was fun when I was younger but is getting tough)<br />Sorry poor kitty isn't having troubles!<br />As for warm-in-winter skirts, if you're already doing leggings/boots, the answer is wool! I confess we get ours at the thrift shop, but my big girls and I live in classically styled 100% wool skirts for the winter. Talbots, Pendleton, Woolrich, and LL Bean oldies are some favorites, but they would cost an arm an a leg (x 4 of us) new. They are usually generously cut, and lined, and wool is noticeably warmer than even heavy cotton.

I got my winter skirts at Land's End(clearance), I wear it with fleece-lined leggings, wool-socks under winter boots. I also have some summer maxi-dresses that I layer with a sweater or cardigan in the colder months. That's how I've kept warm walking to St. C. <br /><br />Haven't finished Christmas shopping either.Ana Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733710862603629370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3130102521697018241.post-7491495520690424262013-12-11T17:12:08.264-05:002013-12-11T17:12:08.264-05:00I'm wearing a long skirt right now!

I hate shopping myself and (I'm thinking) you do, too. It's always a serendipitous thing to find a skirt that I like and then...once I do...I wear it to shreds. <br /><br />Erm. That's not so pretty an image, isn't? Well, I owed ya one for that description of your cat's incision! <br /><br />Love you. :)Margaret in Minnesotahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603439076606550856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3130102521697018241.post-40862729080123945322013-12-11T16:47:41.908-05:002013-12-11T16:47:41.908-05:00I only wear skirts of Mass during the winter, and ...I only wear skirts of Mass during the winter, and I HATE pantyhose, so I just wear really tall socks that I get from Target. I wear boots too to keep my legs warm. I got both my skirts handed down!! I occasionally will use a summer skirt and just add the layers. I hope you find some good deals, maybe at the mall? It is hard to find good winter skirts.Elisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975746279957689529noreply@blogger.com
