Another 'keep or return' thread

Have taken delivery of another holiday order, and would appreciate opinions on it as you all kept me right last time.

I'm 40 now, and I've absolutely lost all confidence in my shopping choices. I feel like I either dress like a child, or make no effort whatsoever.

Anyway... not sure what order these show up for others as in first, second, third, so please advise re:

White
Floral
Green

Thanks

White looks best, but I do like the shape of the green - you could wear all of them really. Can I please ask where they are from?

FreshFaceTime · 13/07/2022 17:00

That plain white one looks amazing on you! KEEP! I didn't get nightwear vibes either. Not as keen on the floral (although would have been a thumbs up if I hadn't compared it to the plain white). Undecided about the green but I think that's because I personally don't suit that shade so can't ever imagine wearing it.

fluffyducky21 · 13/07/2022 17:01

The floral on is my favourite.I'm not keen on the green one.

ursuslemonade · 13/07/2022 17:02

If I were you, I would keep the white one.
The floral has no waist, don't find it flattering.
Green not so keen.
You have a great figure!

SirChenjins · 13/07/2022 17:04

The white one is gorgeous - although I think it needs a tan belt or something to make it less like PJs. Floral one is too shapeless - you have a lovely figure and I don't think it does you justice. Green is lovely but a bit tight in the crotch and a bit low - maybe a bigger size for below and a vest top or bikini top underneath?

whenwillthemadnessend · 13/07/2022 17:05

I like them all Where are they from.

springingup · 13/07/2022 17:06

I like the first two best but if you order the green in regular size I think it would look great too! Where are they from?

doingmyboxin · 13/07/2022 17:07

They are all from ASOS. Only the green is ASOS own brand though.

I like them all but agree the green could do with being a little bit longer in the body.

I would definitely keep them all.

catandcoffee · 13/07/2022 17:08

White one looks lovely on you.

doadeer · 13/07/2022 17:09

White is nicest and green too. Not keen on middle floral one.

You look lovely!

PorkPieForStarters · 13/07/2022 17:10

I really like the green one and think it's the most flattering in style and colour, maybe a non-petite size though as you mentioned? Really don't think the others do anything for you.

Reading all the answers, there are so many different opinions so I say go with what you feel most comfortable in (literally and style-wise)!

SpacePotato · 13/07/2022 17:12

White looks great. Very flattering fit.

Floral look too CBeebies presenter.

Green looks like it isn't long enough in the body so comes up too high in the crotch.

beachcitygirl · 13/07/2022 17:56

Plain white amazing!
Green camel toe
Floral looks great on you but not my taste

Ps you have a fabulous figure!

midsomermurderess · 13/07/2022 17:56

The first one. The second one is a bit childish and the third one is quite an odd shape.

MistyRock · 13/07/2022 18:02

The white has too much lace imo and reminds me of a doilie. The floral is really cute. The green is lovely but I think it needs to be non petite to fit your body better. Obviously just my opinion.

Laiste · 13/07/2022 18:10

I genuinely like them all and would keep them all!

If you really want to pick just one i'd say the Floral.

Edwardoo · 13/07/2022 18:14

The middle one looks childish. The white one is too nightie. The green is the best but too short needs to be a few inches longer on the legs.

beachcitygirl · 13/07/2022 18:23

Oh, just to say I think the white one would like nice with a tan belt & tan sandals

purplebells · 13/07/2022 18:26

I quite like the floral. I also quite like the green but you're in hungry front bum territory with the sizing I think.

White looks nice I suppose but I don't think it's very fashionable.

WhatWouldChristineCagneyDo · 13/07/2022 18:27

White one is glorious and gives you lots of options with accessories... Keep that one!

Floral one is OK in terms of cut, but I find the fabric too sheer and the print placement strange, and it looks a little cheap. If they do it in a different fabric then it might be a yes...

Green one is not particularly flattering, I think that even with sizing up the proportions are just not right for you.

mintich · 13/07/2022 18:29

White

TheFallenMadonna · 13/07/2022 18:31

I like the white and the floral.

catfunk · 13/07/2022 18:31

All suit you.
Green would snow up sweat patches on holiday though.

MistyRock · 13/07/2022 18:32

beachcitygirl · 13/07/2022 18:23

I agree with this.
