Am I the only one who thinks these look awful against bare skin in the summer?

Yes, you are the only one....

Morticia Adams springs to mind!

Black ain't a summer colour.

Nightwish

black is the only colour I wear and I probably look like Morticia Addams but for me thats probably not a bad thing!!!

Maynooth

What? Black skirts are sexy!

dudara

It all depends on how it's being worn. Black against pale white bare skin, not too hot.

A bit of colour, just a little even, ten times better. The problem is that there are an awful lot of legs out there at the moment that have just come out from unde the pants, have been freshly shaved and are still bare white.

Maynooth

Black skirts are classy though.

Nightwish

I don't tan unless I'm out foreign so I'm as white as a bottle of milk at the moment,but I don't care if it clashes with my clothes.

still its better than resorting to karina's (anyone remember her?!!!) m&s opaque tights

Black against white skin is damn sexy, once the skin itself is sexy. It emphasises the paleness and the creaminess of the skin and brings out its good points.

its the look I go for...pale skin and black clothes. when i was in school my hair was black i was called wednesday addams
glad that not everyone here agrees with the OP, cos the fake orangeness that most irish people aspire to looks ridiculous-oompah loompahs come to mind there

I'm talking about that pale, freshly shaven, lumpy bumpy irish skin that hasn't seen sunlight in milennia. It's a different story story to skin being just pale.

At least if a women is in a black skirt and a bit pale - we can use the "Goth" excuse. And not every false tan gives the "Oompah" - "You've been Tangoed" look - some of them just make you a little less pale and are very natural looking, you just gotta be careful rubbing it in .......

And whilst we're discussing WHITE LEGS - what about men in shorts - come on guys - you can get away with a little pale because most of you have hairy legs - but there are a few legs in shorts out there that need a Government Health Warning - it's scary. The moral - if the pins are whiter than white - long shorts - preferably to your ankles!!! If you're a bit more tanned, knee length - but never and I mean never - no matter what - just never wear those old style shortie football type of shorts. Eeeek.

Civilian_Target

Yay for black skirts and pale skin.

If we don't expose our white Irish legs, how the hell will we unwhiten then?!

Oi! I am the supreme uberlord of pallour - i avoid sunlight andfake tan like the plague and never leave the house without sunscreen! But I don't wear black skirts with bare legs - i try other colours instead. Actually, maybe the problem is more with lumpy, rough-looking pale legs than pale legs per se. I really should bring my camera with me at all times to have evidence to back these threads up!

Well maybe that's where you're going wrong then?

[arrogant]Well, they probably would look good on me... [/arrogant]

I'd hate to wear all black, though I do far too often.

I like purples and greens and blues too... they look good against pale skin. I think bright red hair against pale skin is much sexier than black hair against pale skin. The whole vampire look has been done a bit much.

i have no doubt as to your extreme pallour, but black clothes/pale skin is my style and since its quite warm out, i wont refrain from wearing skirts just cos my legs are white.
anyway most of the time i wear fishnet tights so the legs are not usually that visible

God damn it girls embrace the white, it's what you were born with, how does white clash with black? They are opposites! Real skin is better than orange fake ****e masking a body and everyone knows they have to start all over the next morning. The real appearance of a person is more attractive, and someone who is happy to only wear a bit of make up will have more self-esteem and a more attractive and confident personality than someone who spends hundreds on make up, is high-maintenance and acts all delicate. No ones putting you on a shelf to look at you are meant to be interactive and fun to be with!!!

Karl Hungus

Well said nidge!
