Why I don’t wear dresses that much anymore

Oh finally I bought a black dress again. I only have two….. I have noticed that I have been buying fewer dresses and more skirts in the last year. I think that’s a shame because I love dresses. Well I like skirts a lot too, so it’s not that it is a disaster. And it’s also not because I already have like 50 dresses. You might be surprised that I don’t have that much dresses. I’ll tell you why I buy dresses less often.

The reason why I don’t like to wear a dress anymore

I use supplemental oxygen 24/7, which most of you probably know. At home I always have a tube in my face. But when I go out I use special glasses. The tube then runs over my back and at the bottom of my top it goes into my portable device. That doesn’t work with a dress. Then I always have to wear a cardigan or jacket over it if you want to make the tube invisible. And I don’t always want that. Actually, I like a dress better with nothing worn over it.

And I find it annoying when it stands out like that. Quite irritating. I do my best to change my mindset in this regard. I should be proud that I’ve lasted so long with such bad lungs! So maybe I’ll just have to wear a dress without a cardigan more often!

Black pleated dress

But isn’t this dress lovely! So simple and that is just the way I love it. Stretchy, so it is also comfortable to wear. The skirt has beautiful pleats and a super length. And I bought it on sale! Haha, I can never succeed in the sale. Or perhaps I don’t give sale a chance. Because I also bought black cropped trousers. Also reduced. Wow, I get under a train with such luck……as we say here……but it probably sounds really weird in English.

Anywayssss, the black dress worn here with ankle cowgirl boots and I could not decide wich jacket I liked better. The brown one has huge shoulder pads which I love. The dress definitely needs a wider belt to give it a bit more structure. And I only noticed in the photos that the dress was quite sheer. From now on, just wear a slip underneath.
