A nice middle class lady of forty five would wear it to a fete.

tethersjinglebellend · 02/12/2011 12:50

Do you like that dress?

How old are you and what's it for?

CeliaChristmasFete · 02/12/2011 13:01

I am a sarky gobshite nice middle class lady of 41 and I'd wear it to family lunch or if I was going to afternoon tea.

CeliaChristmasFete · 02/12/2011 13:02

I thought you were going to link to this little beauty W.T.A.F?

CeliaChristmasFete · 02/12/2011 13:05

OP, this looks similar to that first dress to me. It's ok, but nothing special.

SilkStalkings · 02/12/2011 16:36

I'd wear it with boots and leggings on the schoolrun. And I'm a nice middle class 35Grin.

cookingfat · 02/12/2011 16:38

Celia - i kind of like it Blush

the sleeves are a bit weird though.

BloooCowWonders · 02/12/2011 17:04

My mum loves this kind of dress. She's early 70s

Tinselitis · 02/12/2011 17:06

I'd wear it with thick tights and boots for every day wear. It isnt setting the world alight for me, though.

SilkStalkings · 02/12/2011 18:42

Actually I suspect the gathering may not be in quite the right place to dramatically disguise my mummy tummy so I would def try it on irl first.

twinklytroll · 02/12/2011 18:45

I would possibly wear it, I am heading for 40 and am a common as muck.

noddyholder · 02/12/2011 18:46

A teacher at a primary school

scentednappyhag · 02/12/2011 18:49

I'm 24, and would definitely wear it for daytime with nude peep toe flats... And now I want to buy it. Damn you Grin

lou thanks I was 46 last month and wouldn't either was beginning to think I should maybe be considering it!

lljkk · 02/12/2011 19:02

It's too smart for me (45yo).

TheGoddessBlossom · 02/12/2011 19:05

I would wear it with glossy tights, obscenely high black patent heels, to a work meeting, or client lunch. I think it would look smart.

lou33 · 02/12/2011 19:11

No Noddy , keep the faith!

Ponyclubmum · 02/12/2011 19:16

I'd wear it, with wellies. I'd go to a country show in my landy and enter craft competitions. :o
