My figure doesn't feel great as my belly is huge and not Cos I'm preg as it's early days

I'm not really into lipstick but I guess I could try some eye make up apart from mascara

Denim jacket a bit cold for December time tho

If you want to wear black tights to keep warm, I'd add chunky 'biker' style boots.

OP I think when people talk about clothes they say what they’re used to seeing the people around them wear .

I’m in my mid 20s and lots of my friends dress like you and wear very little make up.

It might be that the people around you don’t think you look older than you are at all x

plunkplunkfizz · 19/01/2020 11:36

Those drawers need a clear out.

LilyJade · 19/01/2020 12:27

I think your face looks younger than 35.

Loving the dalmations!!

Rachelfromfriends1 · 19/01/2020 13:26

Your hair also ages you. It looks darker at the root (from a distance could pass for grey roots) but ginger through the lengths. Would look better if it was all darker brunette

Nicecupofcoco · 19/01/2020 13:33

My guess was 26! I think you look younger in the picture with your dogs, but I'd only put you at 32 ish too on the photo of you in the dress! So yes, you definitely look younger than you are in my opinion!

Ellapaella · 19/01/2020 14:39

I'd have said 35-40. Around my age I'd have said (i'm 40) possibly a bit younger.
I'm terrible at guessing ages though.

LaksaLover · 19/01/2020 15:37

I would have said around my age, which you are 👍

Are you actually looking for fashion advice though or was this just a 'guess my age' thread?

LaksaLover · 19/01/2020 15:41

Ah, re read and apparently you are after fashion advice.

I think you look fine and have got a good figure. I think you need to work on your self esteem.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 19/01/2020 16:04

Awwwww your dogs are gorgeous😍😍😍😍😍

OxfordCat · 19/01/2020 16:19

In response to your fashion advice query- Ballet pumps are very dated OP. You could try white sneakers / vans or ankle hike / biker boots as has been suggested.

Your glasses could be more stylish- stronger dark more structured frames would work.

Try some fashionable hair styles for days you can't be bothered- high messy bun for example, rather than just scraped back. Also what the pp said about refreshing your hair colour and adding lipstick. Maybe a more defined long bob style.

dontgobaconmyheart · 19/01/2020 17:09

This can't be making you feel good about yourself OP, what is the point? You look like a normal person, perfectly fine, those dalmatians are lovely!. As I've said on another of these threads- looking younger doesn't mean a person is therefore attractive/looks cool/is stylish- it just means you look younger. I wish MN would stop these threads, it just tempts even more people with insecurities to have a go and hear (mostly) a breakdown of how they don't look good. Hardly a positive or healthy thing to encourage by default of allowing it. Shall we start eating each others looks out of 10 next? Hmm

dontgobaconmyheart · 19/01/2020 17:09

*rating, not eating!

AllWashedOut · 19/01/2020 18:12

I'd say you look your age but you're not dressing well. I'm not into fashion so I'll not comment on style per se. I do think your colours are wrong - that olive green scarf for instance is lovely but does not suit you in the least. Also you have hair like mine, sticky out bits. I think, as others have said, a nice new hair style/colour will work wonders for you. Congratulations on your pregnancy !

AllWashedOut · 19/01/2020 18:13

Sorry - you're NOT pregnant. I misread your post Blush

LefttoherownDevizes · 22/01/2020 14:46

OP I think you live really near me - I recognise those houses - are you near Canary Cafe?

I think you are late 20s/early 30s

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 22/01/2020 15:30

You look gorgeous in your second picture.

Ginkypig · 22/01/2020 21:14

Well I thought bang on 35 and I was right but you look a "good" 35 if that makes sense you also have the most amazing little tiny waist!

I'm not quite sure what you wanted from this thread but you have nothing to worry about and while you don't look 20 that's a good thing because you aren't meant to! Life experience shapes us and it shows on our faces and adds interest to how we look.

Engard · 22/01/2020 21:20

I love this thread! I can't post pictures of myself online but think a few "facts" followed by some guesses would be fun

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 22/01/2020 23:05

There's no way im posting a picture. I'd scare you all away. Even the mirror is terrified of my reflection. Grin

Flythedragons · 22/01/2020 23:26

I thought 32.

MollysMummy2010 · 23/01/2020 00:07

I would have said 47. Get your hair done maybe?

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 23/01/2020 00:12

Never mind your age,tidy up your drawersShock

Crunched · 23/01/2020 00:14

I would have said 27 and, usually on these threads, I am guessing far to old.
Maybe a trendier spectacle shape? but you honestly look fresh-faced and with gorgeous dogs.
