    Can you wear tights with them? Something with a high denier perhaps so your legs don't feel on show as such.

    I always see you buying leggings in the other thread. Maybe you could ease yourself into them by getting dresses or tunic type tops to go with them and then once you're comfortable go for tights/bare. If you have an interest in wearing them that is.

    Either way go wild and get the skirt!!

    I don't wear skirts or dresses either. I never wear scarves even in the coldest part of winter, they just don't suit me.

    I usually wear a T-Shirt, covered by a jumper in Winter. And Jeans.

    Polo necks. Can't stand that restrictive feeling around my neck.

    Responding to the title of this thread not just randomly putting polo necks!

    I don't really wear tailored jackets. If it's cold I need a proper coat and if it's warm I prefer a cardigan or jumper for my outer layer. There are probably perfect little windows in Spring and autumn where I could wear one of my jackets, but it just never happens.

    Haven't worn trousers for over 20 years, except for jeans and I only started wearing them about 2 years ago when I discovered Levi Curve

    Skinny jeans, although I bought my first pair the other week. I prefer bootcut or slim/straight jeans normally.

    Tops or dresses with one shoulder or even worse with one sleeve that is then split down the middle. I don't know why, but I just can't stand the look.

    I don't usually wear shorts as my legs are pale. Though last summer it was just too hot so I bought a few pairs of denim shorts. I'm not too happy about the paleness but at least I have slender legs so I can take comfort in that lol.

    Heels, because I'm quite tall (5'7) and because I thought I'd look like Whoppi Goldberg in Ghost if I did. I started wearing sandals with a heel this summer, and now mid high Chelsea boots.

    I love wearing them and prefer them to most of my flats.That said I reckon I do look a bit like Whoopi tottering down the street in them, but I don't care.

    I never used to wear dresses either, but I love them too now, so go for it. Winter is the perfect time to try. Wear them with opaque tights, high boots and a cardi if you like.

    Embrace your tallness. I'm also 5'7 and usually go for for smallish heels but recently thought sod it, i want to wear stupidly high ones!! I love being tall :cool:

    I've never worn jeans. I would like to but I'm a size 14 and don't want any more fuss and bulk around my tummy/bottom area. I always think the zip will draw attention to my front and the pockets will draw attention to my bottom!

    I'm about a size 21, or thereabouts, and can wear jeans quite easily. There's no reason to let your shape/size get in the way of wearing clothes if you want to wear them. :)

    I'm 5'9 and just wear high heels when I'm on a night out. I prefer high heeled boots to general heels as they feel more supportive and less wobbly lol. I like being tall but sometimes feel weird when I'm literally looking down on my (tallish) guy friends.

    What happens when it's a hot summer day - what do you wear then?

    Skinny, slim or straight jeans. I only wear Diesel Zatinys, a narrower bootcut, slightly wider cut than straight.

    Quilted diamond jackets.

    Don't wear trousers without a belt.

    Anything green.

    5ft 7 isn't what I'd consider 'tall'. I'm 6ft 1 and don't feel 'tall'. :)

    I certainly wouldn't say it's too tall for heels, you see many women 6ft+ without heels anyway, it's not that unusual nowadays.

    I'm 6'2" and I wear heels. I can't dance in flats, and heels make your legs look better. I don't wear anything above the knee though. Although I'm tall and a fairly slim 12-14, I have the ugliest knees ever (they look like cauliflowers) and do not want them on show. I don't wear anything high necked either as I have quite big boobs and high necks always make your chest look saggy and low.
