differentID · 02/09/2008 20:40

Oh my word. that's definitely a skirt to wear going out on the pull.

LucyJones · 02/09/2008 20:40

why do you want to look odd, is it an attention seeking thing, you want people to notice you?

those tights are very odd.
I like the skirt and it is very cheap. worried about the length though, don't get to go out much so need things tio waer everyday.

I think it depends on how tall you are, if you are petite, then maybe. I am 5ft 9" and have long legs (they are as wide as long unfortunately) so there would just be sooo much leg on display.

I like short skirts with thick tights and boots, go for it if you like it.

Just be careful if you bend down

compo · 02/09/2008 20:49

peple will judge you and not in a good way

i thought leggins under it would get round the bending down issue.
people judge everybody if you read mn to much.
mind you I don't want dd to be labelled as kid with tarty mum.

Lizzylou · 02/09/2008 20:53

How tall are you and how long are your legs?

NoMoreOlympics · 02/09/2008 20:53

I never said tarty

I just think it is very young

Like something my 13 yr old would wear.

I would wear it, I wear lots of short skirts with thick tights or leggings

Go for it if you like it, you will cheer up the dads

I am only 5'5'' and do not have very long legs.
I tend to buy most of my clothes from the young fashion sections of shops, aimed at teenagers.
