Can I have your approval or disapproval of this outfit for a meal with friends tomorrow night?

It's just round at the local, kids in tow.

I'm always scared to wear loose fitting tops as I feel they make me look big (used to be overweight and lost the weight).

Some of the girls going are that really effortlessly stylish types and I certainly wouldn't put myself in that category.

Looking for a casual but well put together feel.

Also wondering if sandals & a jumper is a bit weird?

Please help!!

Thanks ☺️

I vote for outfit 1 because if you get too hot rushing about after kids you can take the jumper off. Not the bag though.

Etino · 15/09/2018 08:23

Both outfits are lovely and I also like the bag!

SleepingInYourFlowerbed · 15/09/2018 08:28

Khaki gazelles would go with the bag better than the black sandals but then that would be better with a different colour top under the jumper

You look lovely in both. I'd go for outfit two but that's just because I'm a dress person!

Ellapaella · 15/09/2018 08:39

Outfit two is lovely. I love that dress on you.

EleanorLavish · 15/09/2018 08:43

Pinafore dresses are so in right now, and you look absolutely fabulous in that one!
I’d say pinafore dress with the black flats.
And well done for trying on something different, I always make my friends try on new stuff, it’s how you keep your style fresh.

WilburIsSomePig · 15/09/2018 08:43

Honestly? I think you look really lovely in both outfits. For soft play I would go for the first one, but with different shoes/boots. Have a lovely time and stop being so hard on yourself!

0teaandtoast0 · 15/09/2018 09:00

Both outfits look really lovely to me - very stylish. Definitely keep the pinafore, even if you don't wear it on this occasion! I'm voting for outfit 2 - it's bang on for this time of year and very in keeping with current styles. Wear either with black flats or khaki gazelles.

CountFosco · 15/09/2018 09:08

Both outfits great, outfit 2 is more AW18 so I'd go with that, but I love the jumper in the first outfit. And you have a fab body, TBH you'd look good in anything.

pumpkinyael · 15/09/2018 11:34

You look great in both outfits.

I really like the jumper but the dress is also very nice. 👍

I hope you have a great evening! :)

pumpkinyael · 15/09/2018 11:35

Outfit 1 would probably look nice with sneakers (imo).

QueJamones · 15/09/2018 11:40

I prefer the dress outfit!

indianwoman · 15/09/2018 11:49

Can I just say when I meet my friends I don't care a hoot what they are wearing, I want to see my friend, not her clothes and I am sure your friends feel the same about you. Don't overthink it!

NewUserNameTime · 15/09/2018 11:49

You look great either way but I love outfit 2. It's a fab outfit and I think it's great to have in your wardrobe as can be dressed up/down and also useful in different weather!

thecatwiththesilveryfur · 15/09/2018 11:52

You look absolutely beautiful in both. Wear whichever you prefer.

furandchandeliers · 15/09/2018 11:56

I think both look nice but probably prefer outfit 2.

LesLavandes · 15/09/2018 12:11

Jumper and sandals are great. I like both outfits

sonjadog · 15/09/2018 12:26

I like both, but outfit 2 a bit more. So I´d wear it.

Redact · 15/09/2018 16:20

Both outfits look really lovely on you. For what you describe your evening out as I'd probably go with No1. No need to worry about your friends looking well put together as imo you do too! Have a fab evening!

AurorasMyGirl · 15/09/2018 16:34

Thanks all... on my way!

I've tried to upload a pic but apparently I've uploaded too many images today (I've uploaded none Confused)

Good choice! Hope you're having a lovely time

friendlyflicka · 15/09/2018 23:14

Haven't read the rest, but I think you look delightful

Loonoon · 16/09/2018 00:05

Love the dress on you, it really shows off your lovely figure.

EnidButton · 16/09/2018 00:23

Hope you had a good time. WineCake

I really love the dress outfit btw. You look cool af in it.

First outfit was nice too. Nothing wrong with it at all. People over analyse any photo posted on here so I wouldn't take any criticisms to heart. You look really good, you can wear anything.
