to wear this for my 50th?

[PyongyangKipperbang]

Or is it wildly age inappropriate?

Size 8 and 5'5" FYI

Just place marking for the photo of you in it OP. I love the outfit. I know a Size 8 5ft5 woman in her 60s which amazing legs who could easily pull this off. But equally, I know plenty of 20-somethings it would look terrible on.

It's not age, it's body shape.

In my mid 20s I wore something similar (except not sparkly) and was told by my friend 'the top half's alright, but it's all gone wrong on the bottom half hasn't it, you look like a right slapper!" It was a lovely smart tailored playsuit that came to my mid thigh and my entire top half was totally covered, no boob on show at all, with tights and ankle boots.

My friend, was wearing a tight super short mini skirt with her knickers on show when she sat down, a bustier with her boobs spilling out the top, bare legs and platform stillettos.

I never went on a night out with her again. I phased her out after that. Nobody gets to tell me I 'look like a slapper" when wearing an outfit that has everything on show while I don't.

Definitely wear it!
If you feel comfortable and gorgeous in it, then that's the answer you need. The more women show that we're not afraid of being "too old" to wear something (or looking older...but that's another rant...) the better. Younger and older women need to see that "too old" is often just a condescending media-driven fear. Lots of inspiration on Instagram on this topic! Life is not only for the young (and thin...but that too is another rant: I feel like we've been programmed into thinking young and skinny is the only way to be).

Have a fabulous time!

I like it. It's bold.

I like it. Bold.

@PyongyangKipperbang With your figure and confidence I’d wear it! You only live once and ultimately who really cares. Have a wonderful birthday

People seem really surprised that a 50yo can get into a size 8, is it a given that we're gonna get fat as we age?

That silver number is rather lovely. I would wear it. We are about the same age. I think one of the joys of getting older is that you are allowed to stop caring what other people think of what you wear, and just put it on anyway. I swap clothing with my teen daughter as we are both size 8/10, and don't give it a second thought. Have a lovely time whatever you wear!!

It’s not to my taste but if you like it they why not.

Wear it. And have a fantastic time! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 love love the outfit 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Love the playsuit. If I was your size I would wear it in a heartbeat, I currently look as though I have eaten you for a light snack

Do you feel better for that comment?

Wear whatever you feel happy in always! If you feel comfortable and happy it shows- the only thing I don’t like seeing other women wear- is a judgey expression! Have a fab night!

If you love it, wear it and good on you. Feeling great in an outfit will make you feel confident which will make you look even more fabulous

Me too! I reckon I had the equivalent of a size 8 lady for my dinner 😆

Ooooooo Eurovision poker night! In that case Christmas bauble is 100% acceptable!! In fact if it’s Eurovision theme then the silvery colours are quite minimal 😂 hope you play the Eurovision drinking game!!

I’m late to the party but I love it!
Never too old to wear something you love. I think it’s FABULOUS

People seem really surprised that a 50yo can get into a size 8, is it a given that we're gonna get fat as we age?

Not a given exactly, but fairly likely to put on weight and harder to lose it. Body shape often changes during perimenopause.

Love the playsuit...not sure about the shoes. I would maybe go with something a bit more strappy or even the 'see-through' style.
I'm sure you will look fab.

Sparkle, shine & enjoy! Why can’t we wear what we want to? How many of us have to die for shoes or objects of beauty hanging up we’ll never ever wear (for one reason or another?) Go sparkle like a glitterball & happy birthday when it comes 🪩

Bugger your age -I'll be 70 in June and virtually live in bright/or themed/ or weird leggings and slogan t-shirts like this one .. www.qwertee.com/shop/tees/we-can-t-fix-it

I often get compliments, believe it or not. 😄

Why should we stop having fun dressing just because we've outlived our teens?

Tell me more!!

What is the drinking game?!

Thanks again!

Oh I need that tshirt!!!! Its amazing

Wear it - you have the figure, and I bet you'll look amazing. Post a pic - the only bad comments you'll get will be from people that are jealous!

Yes yes yes wear it please. I’m exactly what I’m looking for to wear to a ball later in year so also thanks for the suggestion too.
the shoes are horrid though. Rethink the shoes.
absolutely go for the playsuit and be proud of being 50 and not having become a lard arse. I love being in my 40s and slim when all around me people have chn, get older, eat shit and get fat!

I am going to be honest....your comments have put me off.
