women of the CR:
How many of you wear the same black skirt everyday?
Either my black one or my grey one. Every day. Any other color would shter my shidduchim.
Usually. It’s hard to find skirts with pockets, so I wear the few that do.
I do, but I have three of them.
I resent the implication that only Nashim Tzidkaniyos wear the same black skirt. I wear the black skirt, but for ulterior motives. I’m too lazy to spend time choosing a whole outfit in the morning. It’s easier to just wear black. Don’t always assume it’s for a righteous cause!
I wear black skirts all the time
but all different styles
all modest, of course:)
I prefer doing laundry over wearing the same article of clothing daily.
I do.
Actually, I have three black school skirts. I alternate.
For the summer, I have five long black slinky skirts. Long black slinky skirts are a sleepaway camp counselor’s best friend.
I have 3 or 4 black skirts that I wear, but generally once I take one out I’ll wear it a few days, leaving it on the chair overnight, before putting it back in the closet and picking a different one
Secular- I do laundry AND wear the same skirt everyday.
i switch off between my denim and black dress skirts every day…. i always hope my students dont get bored of them because i haven’t found any other ones that i like…:)
good question!
every day of the week, guilty as charged!! Including Shabbos and Yom Tov!!
all my skirts are black except for some shabbis skirts 🙂
guilty as charged. Many skirts, all black. Some slinky, some not. All black. All the time. BORING but very very practical.Not a middas chassidus or a siman of tzidkus but rather a siman of practicality (black is slimming).
Sorry, I hate the “black” frum look. I almost never wear black, I like colors, purple, blue, green, etc.
Syag- So you either do laundry every day or don’t include the skirt in said laundry.
My black skirts go with everything. I don’t wear black for any reason other than I happen to like black skirts. Also, it’s very slimming…
I wear both black skirts as well as skirts with lots of color. I hop that I am still eisha tzidkania even with the colored skirts..
Sf- we do one to two loads a day. I usually change into something else while I wash everything at once
from Long Island: black skirts can be worn with tops every color of the rainbow!!
And my question is now: To all those who posted on this thread – Do you think of yourselves as nashim tzidkaniyos?
Sg- I actually laughed about that thought the first time I posted.
Nope. I wouldn’t even begin to describe myself as such. Please don’t get me mixed up with the righteous women in our generation. It will only serve as a dishonor to their incredible work.
Idunno if I am… I’ll leave that to others to figure out in my ArtScroll biography 🙂 (sorry, I’m just coming off that thread).
I really only have black skirts and a cream skirt for under Shabbos dresses. I wear cool, colorful, exuberant tops, though :). Black is just so quick and easy.
LOL 🙂
Thanks for clarifying. Cuz here I thought I chanced upon a whole group of lamid vavniks…oh well.
lol! Isnt it nuts how so many women wear black? and its not just skirts…I’m guilty as charged too! I mainly have black.
As i was growing up everyone around me always wore black. I have a more conservative style black, white and grays were my colors from when i was a teen. I do like colors and started to venture out of my comfort zone. however, my skirts stay black…
Used to be that the mens section at a wedding was all black and white with the womens section being a colorful array of outfits. Now, they are both about the same…
Jewish women have always been described of nashim tzidkaniyos without needing to isolate a few as the best ones.
