Nah... the model could do with cheering up though

Paintbox · 27/07/2017 22:46

Op you don't say how old you are

HBaker · 27/07/2017 22:47

Sorry, I turned 39 this week.

No it's not then

GeillisTheWitch · 27/07/2017 22:49

I like it, I think the way they've styled it on the model makes it look quite childish with the red handbag but I think it could look lovely with a different top and bag.

HBaker · 27/07/2017 22:50

Thanks Paintbox!

What top could work well with this, Geillis?

Suggestions for tops? I don't wear sleeveless and I'm top heavy. Also I'm big.

I'd wear that and I'm older than you Grin

steppemum · 27/07/2017 22:54

I think it is a lovely skirt, but it is too short for me!

GeillisTheWitch · 27/07/2017 22:55

I'd probably go for something plain black with it, I'm not a big fan of double patterns but maybe that's just me.

BrutusMcDogface · 27/07/2017 22:59

I love it! I'd probably go for a plain white top rather than black, as that would be too dark for me. Actually I might go for a plain bright red top with red accessories to tie it all together. Any other plain bright colour would work. Maybe turquoise and turquoise sandals 😊 I love stars!

BrutusMcDogface · 27/07/2017 23:00

Ps is that a picture of you in the stripy dress, op? You aren't even remotely "big"!

HBaker · 27/07/2017 23:03

Yes that's me, Brutus. I am top heavy (but flat-chested) and a 14-16.

It's very short. I think it's too short.

LifeofClimb · 27/07/2017 23:47

I like it! Buy it. You look very slim in the photo!

HBaker · 27/07/2017 23:59

LifeofClimb,

Thanks! I regret returning that dress!

Big?! I think it's quite absurd that you call yourself big?! Confused

Either you have serious body issues or that dress is extremely flattering!!

hmcAsWas · 28/07/2017 00:06

It screams 'teen' to me, but I am probably being a crusty old fart

Lj8893 · 28/07/2017 00:06

I like the skirt, not too old for it depending on how you wear it.

PeoniesGinandBags · 28/07/2017 11:40

The star skirt is lovely. I'd actually wear in for autumn with some woolly tights and ankle boots x

needastrongone · 28/07/2017 12:25

I'd wear it and shorter. I'm 45 and in better shape now than I've ever been, hate this age related stuff. Wear what suits you. What about a peach coloured top? X

Creatureofthenight · 28/07/2017 12:31

I love it! Can't find it on the UK site though Sad
