Lots of Men Dancing in Skirts at Contra Dance

This is a fabulous video showing the popularity of men wearing skirts at Contra Dances. Almost EVERY gent in the video is wearing a skirt. You see all types of styles, patterns and lengths. The gent with the long blue skirt shows you how to really work a skirt while dancing! What are you waiting for, get a skirt and go dancing!

Coach Bags Are a Man's Best Friend

As I said before, if you wear skirts anywhere besides the house, you are probably going to need a bag to keep all your keys, cell phone, etc. Coach makes some great bags for Men and of course, have a huge selection of Women's bags. Though they are pricey, the quality is proven and they are designed to last a lifetime.

The one pictured is a Coach Harrison Leather Satchel. You can shoulder sling, hand carry or sling it cross body - so it fits a variety of styles. The neutral color makes it easy to wear with all types of skirts. Definitely one of my favorites from Coach.

Skirt Alternative

Here is a idea for guys who don't want to commit with a full skirt at a Contra Dance. Tie a sweater around your waist and turn it around in front like an apron. Good idea!

My New Purse from the Michael Kors Collection

As I mentioned before, a handbag is a must if you wear skirts on a regular basis. I need somewhere to keep my keys, wallet, cell phone and other electronics. A handbag is the perfect place for everything so I don't have to keep everything in my pockets. I started carrying a purse awhile ago while wearing skirts, but now carry a purse even if I am not skirted. They are very practical and most importantly, stylish. My favorite designers and brands are Michael Kors, Louis Vuitton and Coach.

I just love my Michael Kors Uptown Astor Shoulder tote. It has golden hardware, top handles, shoulder strap with rings and chain detail, and a hanging logo charm. The size is 12"H x 15 1/2"W x 5"D. I also love the studded detail across the center and being able to wear it over the shoulder.

Put on a Skirt and Get on the Dance Floor

Contra Dancing is always more fun twirling and spinning in a skirt!

H & M Introduces A Men's Skirt In Their Spring 2010 Collection

H & M stores are introducing a Men's Skirt in their Spring 2010 fashion line. The photos show a pleated black skirt that looks rather comfy. I'm not sure of the cost but I will keep a lookout in the stores and find out if they are also including the leggings as pictured.

It's great to see one retail store stepping forward and offering an alternative to the dull world of khakis and jean for men. Now it's time for the other stores to move forward with this fashion trend and offer more alternatives.
