@alexseifert I bought the mini-version of the skirt a whim first (like a year back or so after coming out of the closet. And for most stuff it just felt too short for me. But with these high lace-up boots in a goth-y look and that coat it just feels like the right length. Though maybe a tad cheeky.
The high boots really shrink the gap between the hem of the skirt and the top of the boots to a nice and comfy level. Anything less and I would rather wear a longer skirt tbh.
But here in this combi. Its awesome. Espcially for the fact that the skirt ends the same length as the coat making for a stunning look in that when no skirt peeks out from underneath I am in love with it.
Just showing off the coat, the boots and some juicy gap inbetween.
It is though still kinda funny to me that this would make me wear a shorter skirt in winter than in the summer. I may need to look for a nice coat that is long enough just to end above knee. So I can fit my longer skirt under it without it peeking through. I will have to look.
Here are some links to the skirts I bought btw
Mini-Version:

The Midi (Knee-length for me) is this one:
https://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B09486QDBP (they not have the same like I have anymore but I also have the same one in that green tartan and black)
Both of these I bought in L for the length mostly as the waistband is made with elastic so it is super comfy and fits me well all the time.
The black one is great when I want to wear some colored top and red is just my go-to color tbh.
I figured that i certainly would need socks in these boots. I just wanted to be sure which pain-points might come from them. For the right foot this will work, the left though is kinda
But I surely will take care going down stairs and clutch that handrail. Not elegant but I will not die.
I normally Am less anxious when Friends take me out (I feel very safe with
@rick for example

)
But going out alone like this is very different. Though I will calm down as I reach my location (was like that with the CSD in Stuttgart atleast)
