Miniskirts Get Even Shorter
Miniskirts which are so short that passersby feel embarrassed just to see them are hitting the street in Korea in the spring season of 2006. They are not just mini. They are super-miniskirts with their total length less than 25 cm. Such super-miniskirts, which got some 10 cm shorter from 10 years ago, are selling like hot cakes, some 2,500-3,000 units on average a day in G-Market, a local online shopping mall, and Auction, the trading site.

Bah, 25cm is still 25cm too long. Just what are they trying to hide, anyway?  |

I'm not embarrassed when I see a chick wearing a mini-skirt. I would be embarrassed, however to have been the photographer who had to ask, "Hey, you ladies mind if I crouch down real low and take a photograph looking up your skirts?"

I am outraged, and highly suspicious, so I concur. We need a plan:
In order to unravel the mystery and analyze the precise contours of the problem, in as minute of detail as possible, we first need to reveal the innermost layers and carefully assess any development. We'll have to keep a finger on the pulse--and it may be touch and go, as what we discover is likely to be surreal, fake, and almost plastic in its lack of sensitivity to the outside world. But we'll still have to come to grips with it and finally get the skinny in the end.
Selfless self-sacrifice.
But we'll need more photographic evidence. Lots more. |

So I'm walking along the road today and one of them didn't look in the mirror properly and the back of her's was hitched into her bike shorts that was underneath... not sexy nor attractive at all.
Also the knee sock with high heel thing is wrong. Knee socks on anyone over the age of 12 is just wrong. |

I ... I.... I just don't know what to say to that.
Never in my life have I read something so far from the truth. (not attacking you, just saying) |

Yeah that to knee socks. Wrong.
And yesterday I saw a girl wearing a mini-skirt who did NOT have the legs for it...please people you should know your bodies well enough to know what styles are less than flattering on you! Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if the wind hadn't been causing her to reveal more cellulite than she'd planned on. |

So Korean women are finally slutting it up like the rest of the world.
Whatever.**

| I have to disagree with lemon girl and corporal. Black knee socks that go just above the kneecap, revealing about 6 inches of leg before the skirt begins... it's hard to top that as far as everyday sexiness. |

What to wear with a miniskirt
by Cynthia Lea Nellis
http://summer.about.com/od/fashionbeauty/a/wearwithmini.htm
Clueless about which shoes and legwear to wear with your miniskirt?
Try these four add-ons to look your trendy best:
-- Boots
The hands-down winner for a miniskirt is a pair of boots. Lengths range from ankle-length to mid-calf to knee-high. Tall boots (a few inches under the knee) are the easiest to carry off with short skirts.
-- Go bare
Show off the rewards of step classes and waxing sessions with bare legs and boots. Or fake perfect legs with self-tanner or leg makeup.
-- Socks
Show your playful side with over-the-knee socks. Only for the young (under 20 and adventurous!)
-- Patterned legwear
Add soft texture to hose with subtle patterns for a ladylike look; fishnets for funk or bold graphics for a mod feel.
Mini-skirt: how to wear a summer staple
... A bare leg, perfectly tanned and de-cellulitized, is an equally great option. Get sexy and lean for night with black fishnet hose or knee-high socks.... Mini skirts draw your attention down, so footwear really matters. For a young look, the rule that the shorter the skirt, the lower the heel height applies.
http://toronto.fashion-monitor.com/news.php/news/2004042401
For a more playful look, some knee-high socks can capture the schoolgirl feel of a mini. And most important are your shoes: high heels, flats, boots, sandals... anything goes, depending on how you feel, but they're going to be more prominent with a miniskirt than with pants or a long skirt, so slip on a pair that are worth showing off.

| Go visit Japan and look at what the highschool girls wear. They make what the girls here wear look like prudes. They have the legs to go with the miniskirts too. |
