It is very easy to buy dresses in the summer, as the weather is warm and most dresses are just made for that type of temperature. They are often cool and light, and that makes wearing them a breeze in the summer, and they also work well in the fall and the spring for the most part. I love to put dresses on my little girl, and she always wears them when she goes to church on the weekends. However, when it comes to winter dresses, I sometimes have problems keeping her as warm as I would like her to be.
There are winter dresses out there for sale, and they are warmer than the ones you would wear in the summer, but that is something not enough. Most of them have thicker material, and they do keep the torso warm. However, when it comes to the legs, neck and arms, there are other problems. You can’t imagine how easily these areas can cause someone to shiver unless you have stood out in the winter without those areas being covered. They make a huge difference and most winter dresses to not cover them.
| Quote of the Day |
... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.

The best we can do is to buy her stockings that are thicker than normal nylons for her legs, and to put long sleeved turtlenecks under her winter dresses. This might seem like a lot under a heavy winter jacket, but I have yet to see her complain about being too hot with that much on her body in the winter. In fact, she seems to be just fine. This seems to work under thinner types of dress as well, but we do try to buy her heavier winter dresses so that she can remain warm.
She’ll be starting school next year, and I think I will try to refrain from sending her in winter dresses unless it is a special occasion. When she is old enough to decide if she wants to be cold on her way to school in the winter then she can decide if she wants to wear them or not. I don’t remember wearing a lot of dresses to school when I was a kid, and that was because of my long walk to the bus stop. I thought it was because I was a tomboy, but perhaps my mom just had my comfort in mind as well. Some days I was cold, but it wasn’t because I was wearing a dress.
