Today, 9/25, I wore a knee-length, leather skirt to work. It is alright that I wear it. The only reason I wore it was to attract the attention of a really nice guy I'd like to date.
I've worked with him for almost a year. I once overheard him say he "likes a chick in leather".
I recently found a leather skirt packed away with my Fall/Winter clothing. I decided to wear it today so he would approach me.
Do you think this was a good decision?

Depends on where you work.
While the length was fine, the material may not have been. Many offices wouldn't encourage leather in the workplace. It's not very professional, not to mention distracting. Attracting good attention from one co-worker may attract bad attention from a boss or other co-worker.
Remember that workplace romances aren't always the best idea. They can be distracting to you both when on the job, and the people that you work with. If it doesn't last, which most of them don't due to the high amount of time spent together and not having "separate lives", the tension and uncomfortableness of being around each other after the break up can affect your job performance.
Use your best judgment here, and don't let some guy affect your job. Even if you two get married and live happily ever after, it's still important to have a good work record.

He may have just been saying that to show off to his friends. It might have been a sexual joke. He may or may not have noticed. If you did not look like a tramp it was probably fine. Since it was knee length it could have been fine depending on what that way. If you like him go talk to him. It is hard with that work issue, but you said you are a student in that other post, so it might not be that serious a job yet in life so just let him know you like him. Be his friend and see what happens. Men are kind of dense sometimes.

No I dont think it was a good thing to do. You should never get involved with anyone that you work with. It can cause alot of problems not only for you but the person that you are involved with, and even other co-workers. Trust me I am talking from experience, I dated my boss once and it was a big mistake.

It's OK unless you make yourself look cheap, then no one will date you seriously only to use you. Don't put yourself out there like that, no guy is worth it.
A leather skirt with a 3/4 sleeve, scoop neck, white pullover is such a smart, sexy and sharp look. Good luck.

Really? The guy who "likes a chick in leather" is your idea of a really nice guy? Not saying he isn't. I wouldn't know. It just seems odd when that's the only information we're given.

It all depends on if you are comferatable you dont really need to wear anything special because if he likes you for just your looks then hes a loser.

You should wear it if you like - not because you want to attract someone...
