S&B things you love on others but would never use/wear yourself

[Lottapianos]

I've noticed a few things that I really admire on other women but just would not be right on me:

Sleeve tattoos - think they look stunning
Pastel hair colours - pale violet, candyfloss pink, silvery grey, love 'em
Heels - cannot wear them, cannot take the pain, but really admire them on other women
Hats - especially big floppy fedora types. I wear a beanie for warmth in the winter - that's it!

What do you love on others?

classic beige mac
colour makes me look near death

agree about heels and hats

bikinis!

summer hats, dainty shoes, most fashion clothes, dungarees. Potentially, I love a good fake tan.

Blanket coats and ponchos. Some women look stunning in them. I look like about 20 years older than I am. Ditto earings - very ageing on me for some reason.

Flares
Big sunglasses
Ballet flats
Pillar box red lipstick
Sarong type garments
Brooches

Dramatic eye make up and false lashes. I look like i've been punched in the face and can never get the lashes glued on straight.

choker-style necklaces

this is how I found out I have no neck

Classic cream/beige trench coat...in fact beige in general!
Maxi dresses...love them on everyone, feel horrid in mine! They are just not me
Ditto ponchos..just look stupid on me
Also, skater dresses, I am too tall, possibley too old, and look like I have borrowed my daughter's clothes ..not a good look!

Black, white, beige, navy .... the only so called neutral that works for me is dark grey.

Heels. Have narrow feet and they never fit.
Statement lip, I always end up in neutrals.

Tunic dresses - my legs aren't good enough
Layered look - I just cant do it
Cardigans - never been able to wear one
Flat shoes with dresses/skirts in winter
White and cream - both completely drain me
mid thigh skirts - the legs again

Things which are described as classic. I feel like I am wearing my mothers clothes. Not my style at all but great on her and others.

Thingummu sorry but that just really made me giggle!

I can't do layers.
Kimonos look awful on me, really swampy which is strange because my whole style is a hippyish boho look.
Nose ring, my nose is too big no way would I draw attention to it!

White shirts, of both the crisp, work-esque and the loose boho style. Adore them but they look absolutely hideous on me.

Leather leggings, they look so fantastic but I dread to think what they'd be like on me!

Wrap dresses....they look fabulous on others, but horrible on me

Flat forms - actually who do they look good on?

Trench coats- especially the current loosely style unstructured ones - the can look super cool on Pin, on me ..... bag lady.....

Peter Pan collars or grandad collars

Oh... Converse or high tops..... Not me either

White coats. Make me look like I am in a lab.

Low waist jeans- so uncomfortable, made me feel like I'd had surgery

Crop tops- just haven't got the stomach for them these days

Short shorts-unless I'm at the beach, too self conscious in them.

Anything too dressy or formal - it's just not me

Ponchos on me too, Zara have some lovely ones in but they make me look ten times the size I am.

Leather leggings but only because I'm pregnant, next winter I'll be all over them.

Beige and cream - I look dead in them.

Dark navy and white striped Breton tops - for two reasons: I am terrified of washing things with contrasting colour, and also because the boxy shape doesn't work on me, I need a long fitted one.

Oh and bleach blonde hair. Love it so much but when I tried it went orange and half my hair fell out

Maxi dresses - too short
Wide leg trousers - ditto
New Balance trainers with skinny jeans - Look like I forgot to change my shoes after exercise
Boho - Resemble mad bag lady

Dainty sandals
Short shorts
Shorts in general look awful on me.

Converse/pumps. I have short legs which aren't stick thin, but size 6 shoe, so I just look like a clown in them.

yy to heels. I'm in flats nearly all the time except on a rare night out. I just can't walk in them and always feel unsteady on my feet.

Jumpsuits. Look gorgeous on other people but I feel like a hippo in them.

Tucked in tops. I think I must have a short body, because the proportions always look wrong.

Spindly, strappy shoes. Not with my wide buniony feet.
