Okay... 18th bday party... have to wear a tutu... am 5ft 3 and a bit on the chubby side...

[mamadiva]

is there any way of me wearing this without looking like the sugerplum fairy? LOL.

I am not massively fat just not particularly skinny either my legs are my worst feature!

Should I wear over skinny fit trouser tucked into my boots or with tights and boots?

HELP any suggestions would be good because my fashion sense is up my arse somewhere!!!

Thanks

a tutu?

sorry, but thats bloody juvenile

I would hate that with a vengeance

tutus should not be seen on any woman unless she is a prima ballerina or under the age of 8 or summat

I would find an excuse not to go to the party

LOL I can't it's me that's in charge of the bloody party, it's for my little cousin he is right into dressing up to go out so...

Between the 10 of us somehow tutu's have been ordered and tshirts have been massacred LOL

I am only 22 and it's to go clubbing etc so should be a laugh... just asking for an opinion.

Also it's meant to be juvenile, it is an 18th bday sheesh lighten up

I would go for tights or skinny jeans/trousers tucked into boots or with heels. At the end of the days your just having a laugh for someones birthday. Just go nuts and have fun, its not like you will be the only one wearing the outfit!

If you're 22 you will look gorgeous - put lots of pink sparkly stuff round your eyes, it will draw attention to your sparkly eyes and skin (which will be all dewy at 22 )

Aw, it could be fun AF, chill. She's said she does want to go.

Can you get a neon tutu or similar (more 90s rave less sugarplum fairy), with black jeans/tights/leggings? Black boots with heels and black whatever on your legs will elongate your legs, and TBH people will be too distracted by the tutu to worry if your legs are not the skinniest.

< stamps off, muttering..."party-pooper, moi?..." >

sorry md, you do what you like, love

don't listen to me (old guffer)

but don't blame me when you get the photographs back !!

mwah-ha-ha-haaaaaaaaa

LOL thank you.

We have loads of tutu's yet too decide who is wearing what colour LOL. We have-

neon pink/black,
neon yellow/black,
neon green/black,
neon blue/black
neon orange/black.

Could be worse we had a full blown argument the other night about whether to get matching neon leg warmers (I said no!)

Am already on youtube AF

Although to this day I do not remember taking part in that video

AF

So for future refernce should we not invite you to fancy dress parties?

yes trill, invite me and I shall come as a stripper, much more appropriate

err md, that youtube vid, you did keep your clothes on didn't you?

gah! I feel oollllld this morning

< goes off to do some flower-arranging or summink equally dull and middle-aged >

I can assure you my clothes were kept firmly in place!!!

Lets just say we watched Mamma Mia too many times me thinks

LOL at dull and middle aged AF with a name like that you expect us to believe you are dull !!!

Heehee no need, DP often puts it on too embaress me when his friends are in, done it last night because I would'nt give them a fag LOL.

I have lost weight since then BTW so excuse the jelly belly swimming got that kind of sorted...

DISCLAIMER: Although that is me but I have no recollection of doing it so therefore it cannot be me and refuse to take responsibility for my stupidity actions

Is it just the skirt, or the whole thing?

I thought a tutu was just the skirty thing.

I assume they mean the net bit anyway, not the leotardy thing as well.

Oh no just the skirty bit like this.

Oh come on people it is for an 18th tis acceptable

See I really want a reason to go out wearing one of them Looks fun.

Don't suppose you live in the Highlands? TA

I was hoping it was just the skirty bit

I would say either thick tights/leggings or skinny jeans but with no pockets

Nope sorry softie Southerner me.

Just need to persuade my friends to do some dressing up, we've all got old over the past year, used to do loads of fancy dress.

Right so how about-

Black skinny fit (As skinny as they come in my size LOL),
Tucked inside my black suede boots or outside them?!,
With my rather funkified tshirt I have to say,
I am thinking bold make up not sure of colours though
And hair NO IDEA there is nothing that can be done with it, my hair is poker straight down to mid shoulder blades, up or down?

I must put pics on here after the night LOL.

What colour tutu will you have? Lots of black eyeliner + a bit of the bright colour on your eyelids (we're thinking goth-ish here right?)

I think jeans inside boots - get a better shape for pretending to have long legs.
