BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Body Image anyone wear dresses all the time??

This may be a weird question but I was thinking about this the other day- How would I feel if I wore dresses more often?
I only wear dresses for special occasions and I see so many cute sun dresses. I consider myself a little overweight and this is one reason I feel the most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt. So, I wonder, do I need to change the way I dress and in turn change the way I see myself. I envision myself a the DS or DD ballgame wearing a fun, colorful sun dress and actually feeling better about the way I look? Crazy? Maybe. What do you think? What do you do to make yourself feel better??

I haven't worn a dress, or skirt in over 40yrs

I'm not much of a "dress" person, I'm comfortable with jeans and shirts, and only wear a dress if I want to. To make myself feel better, I follow my heart.

I think first and foremost, you have to feel more confident about yourself. For me, it's accepting the way you look that will make you feel better about yourself. Regardless of what you wear, it's the mindset of a confident person that will let you shine. Remember, feeling good about yourself starts from the inside. So love yourself and you will look good, whether you're wearing a shirt, jeans or a dress.

I was never a dress person far more pants are more practical for outside activities for most of my life, how ever my sisters in the last few years have gotten me hung up on wearing dresses. It makes me feel really good about myself some how- even though at the start I felt a bit self conscious I have grown to love feeling feminine. Now The majority of my summer closet is dresses. Most new experiences can take a bit of adjusting before you know if you like it or not.

Well, I prefer trousers and blouses, Jeans and T-shirts.
as for dresses...especially when I must visit someone and on special occasions.
For visits, something elegant and comfortable at the same time and for occasions...I like the Audrey Hepburn style, that is-discreet, yet marvellously attractive.

I love wearing dresses, especially during warm/hot weather. I feel more feminine and wonderful and take on an entirely different attitude when I wear dresses.

Most of the time I wear pants.

For business and when I get dressed up I wear two piece outfits of a top and skirt or sometimes a suit. I rarely wear a "real" dress.

I very seldom wear dresses, but lately I've seen so many that I like I am thinking of buying some new ones. I will stick to more casual ones and see how it goes. I've also been losing weight which makes me feel like trying something new.

This is one of the dresses that I like. I hope to catch it on sale.
