Does this skirt look okay on me?

I never ever wear skirts or dresses as I think they look odd on me.
I've reached a point where it's too hot.
So here we are
Does this look okay?
Going to change the top for a black one

Yep I love it

Jjacobb · 16/07/2022 19:23

Yes, you look great.

Donnasaurus · 16/07/2022 19:25

I love it! It looks great on you

Rollerbird · 16/07/2022 19:25

it looks fine - and will be loads cooler than trousers!

PickAChew · 16/07/2022 19:26

You might regret it if your legs stick together.

Princessoftheuniverse · 16/07/2022 19:42

It’s great and I like it with that too.

likemyfabsonggoinground · 16/07/2022 20:21

Thanks everyone
It's mad when your not used to wearing something how you feel so uncomfortable

You have a lovely figure but being honest I don't like the skirt.

fallfallfall · 17/07/2022 06:09

Love the pop of red! You need to have that somewhere; shoes purse or shawl.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 17/07/2022 06:40

Yep, gorgeous. Next!

LadyOfTheCanyon · 17/07/2022 06:41

As in " nothing to see here folks", not " it's from Next," Grin

Red with leopard print looks really dated, as is a shawl.

Looks good OP

I agree - no red! And no shawl!

The skirt is lovely though, you look fab 😊

Maireas · 17/07/2022 06:49

I don't think this looks good on you, the proportions are all wrong. If it's about keeping cool, get something looser in a light cotton. A maxi? Loads around.
You have a lovely figure, but this is unflattering.

PandoraP · 17/07/2022 08:21

You have a lovely figure and can wear any skirt you like, but don’t think this skirt. I think it looks dated.

Whitehorsegirl · 17/07/2022 09:02

Lovely figure that suits wearing skirts/dresses but the skirt prints look a bit dated to me.

Leopard prints are really not the easiest, most flattering thing to wear.

SirChenjins · 17/07/2022 09:05

You have a great figure but I’m not keen on the skirt - that’s just my opinion though, you’d probably not like the skirts I wear!

inmyslippers · 17/07/2022 09:06

I love it. Would wear it with a crop top

ErrolTheDragon · 17/07/2022 09:07

The shape is fine on you, though different print would be better (and the idea of a shawl when the whole point is coolness is funny).

But you'll look better in that skirt than anything you feel too hot in.

SummerHouse · 17/07/2022 09:11

A woman on the school run wore similar last week. Black top and big glasses. I thought "god, she looks effortlessly glamorous"

It also looks quite comfortable which is my main concern with cloths.

I think it looks fabulous on you.

likemyfabsonggoinground · 17/07/2022 10:24

It's strange because maxi dresses /skirts don't look right on me..and mini skirts I like but only abroad.
Probably because we don't get a lot of hot weather to wear them in.
I'm gonna stick with this skirt as it's past the return period
Do you think flat sandals will work?

BeanyBops · 17/07/2022 10:28

You look so good! The skirt is perfectly on trend-90s vibes. Yes definitely wear it with sandals, I'd go for chunky black ones personally like docs or birks.

dontgobaconmyheart · 17/07/2022 13:27

I think if it were a different pattern/colour it would be a lot nicer but it looks perfectly fine on. You look good in it OP. I do like a bit of leopard print but am not keen on the pattern placement of that, that lighter patch across the stomach especially is not the most flattering.

I'd wear chunky black sandals with it.

god no red it’s so dated with leopard print and please don’t say pop, it’s not the eighties 🤪

CambsAlways · 17/07/2022 13:35

Not keen on leopard print but…. You have great figure so could wear anything
