I wear a kippah almost all the time, from the time I get up in the morning, until I go to bed at night. Sure you face a lot of questions about the fact of a women donnig a garment that many view as male. But hey, this is the modern world, women are even allowed to wear pants, so why not a garment that's is based on minhag (tradition) and not halachic. I love wearing it, it reminds me of the presence of G_d and yes it does change a persons behaviour, to remind me to be a better Jew all the time. A person thinks twice before doing something stupid if they are aware that they are identified as religious. It is just the way things work.
