bettyandbob Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I work at a recreation center (actually a couple of recreation centers). I teach swimming, but I am getting more into programming and other aspects. When I am out of the pool I am to wear khaki pants/shorts/skirt and closed toed shoes and a shirt from the rec center. I've been wearing khaki shorts and a skirt recently. However, I'm going to have to cover my legs. For various reasons I'd like to not always wear khaki pants. If I wasn't going on the pool deck occasionally in this "uniform" I would wear a khaki skirt with black tights and black clogs. In pants I can just slip off my shoes and put on my flip flops. I can't do that if I have tights on. So the problem is how do I wear the skirt and tights and easily slip off my shoes to walk around the pool when I need to. I thought about the convertible tights my dd wore for ballet (they can cover your toes, but then be rolled up). Another thing I thought about is wearing footless tights or leggings. If I wore footless tights or leggings could I put on some black socks too (just long enough to come over the end of the leggings). I don't like cold feet in winter. OK I know this is a weird. I'm sure some of you are thinking just wear the pants and be done with it. However, I'd be grateful for input on how I can wear a khaki skirt. Thanks.

Wheres Toto Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Footless tights or leggings with boots. If the boots are comfortable enough/lined you might not even need to worry about socks. Just slip off the boots, slip on the flip flops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happi duck Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Would your feet/tights get wet if you just wore the slip on shoes that don't go between the toes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Wear the tights you want to wear and get slip on sandals in stead of between the toe, flip flops. If you don't want your tights to get wet, then the socks are going to be the way to go. If you wear boots, it will cover up the socks. so no one will know you have on footless tights/socks.

theelfqueen Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Could you wear a longer skirt? Would that help? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitten18 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) If you don't want the look of footless tights you could wear convertible tights. They have a hole on the bottom of the foot, you just slip them over your toes and roll up. My dd wears this brand, they're a good value for convertible tights. http://www.discountdance.com/mobile/mobileDetail.php?TopCat=TI&SortOrder=P&ShopMobile=Style&PageNumber=1&style=T5500 Edited September 29, 2016 by kitten18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
