Am I too old for the hush ruched skirt

[cloudskitchen]

I've ordered it and it has arrived. Now I see it in the flesh I'm wondering if I'm a bit old. I'm 42 (god that sounds old when I write it down) 5'2" and a size 10. Plan on wearing it with opaque, my biker style but taller boots and some floppyish jumpers sort of in hush style but-cheaper I'm now having a slight crisis that I will look a bit mutton dressed as lamb.

must work on my text strike throughs. first effort fail

[dexter73]

I think it sounds like it will look very nice.

[OneLittleLady]

I think it will look fab on you

[buttercrumble]

I'm sure it will look amazing ,go for it

[nomoreminibreaks]

I think it looks lovely. I'm tempted to get one myself!

[MrsMcGregor]

I bought it and I'm 46. Haven't had the nerve worn it yet though! I plan to wear it with woolly tights, boots and a sloppy boyfriend knit with scarf or necklace to finish it off. Keep it!

[Ladyface]

Looks lovely, go for it!

Hoping not as I have just bought a leather mini skirt for my work Xmas party and I'm 39. I have decent enough legs though so hope I get away with it and that the young staff members aren't too horrified .

[Spookey80]

Think it sounds lovely, esp the way you have styled it. Also, because you are short, I always think that helps with a tight short skirt,,,if that makes any sense at all?!

[plentyofsoap]

Of course not! Mine has come as an xmas pressie and dh has hidden it, hope it fits....

[cloudskitchen]

Thank you all. I'll keep it and wear it with pride. Mines also a Christmas dressier but I got to it first so have tried it all together :D

[cloudskitchen]

Erm pressie not dressier oops

I have 2 of the riches dresses and don't consider myself too old I look great in then they're so flattering.

[RubyLovesShopping]

Ruched not riches!

[alltoomuchrightnow]

I'm 42 , I wore a black ruched dress to a do tonight! And i have All Saints and Coast ruched skirts too

[alltoomuchrightnow]

(all three are the parachute style, if that makes sense)

How on earth can you be too old for ruching? It's perfect for older women - makes all your lumpy bits disappear. Can somebody please explain?

[higgle]

I'm 57 and wanted one but they were out of stock in my size - as it was a 10 I'll have another look.

[cloudskitchen]

Just because it short and tight Floisme however it's fine with opaques and slouchy jumper.

Higgle I bought the black in the small and they had plenty. the other colour was sold out in all but xs.

[Floisme]

It sounds great op; enjoy wearing it.

[Beeyump]

I have just bought this skirt, op! It's amazing, and so versatile.
I'm 5'3 and size 8/10 as well, and it's a good length on me. Enjoy

[GeekInThePink]

Heck I thought I was too old at 30 for them! I'm a 5,5ft size 8.
I'm taking the plunge.
How short is it? Could you wear it in an office environment?

Also where are you buying your boyfriend slouchy jumpers?
