Evening everyone have been undecided about these since they appeared in the shops but, dh keeps insisting that I would look great in them. Sooo have just ordered a pair however am having serious doubts now and will probably send them straight back. Need your honest opinions as dont want to go out looking like a fool. Have I waited too long and they are now seen as a fashion faux pas? am I too old (eeekk 29) am a size 10. Any opinions would be greatfully received

Well, I think they look awful

But that's my opinion only

KingCanuteIAm · 23/07/2009 22:53

yuk yuk yuk, sorry.

I don't even think they look good on size 6 6ft tall 17yos. However I have no taste so I am pretty sure someone will tell me I am wrong

Thanks notnowbernard that was my initial reaction towards them too, but dh kept saying they will look great on you. Maybe he wants to send me on a girly nite out looking ridiculous (grin)

Boke. They're heinous dude.

TigerDrivesAgain · 23/07/2009 23:27

ludicrous whatever age/size. but weirdly entertaining to anyone who sees you, so yes, go get some

filchthemildmanneredjanitor · 23/07/2009 23:28

they are horrible but if dh likes them maybe get them for bedroom wear?

giraffesCanRunA10k · 23/07/2009 23:28

IMO awful

ButterbeerAndLemon · 23/07/2009 23:28

Awful. No matter how tall and slim you are. But if your DH likes them you could wear them around the house...

HolyGuacamole · 23/07/2009 23:30

Agree, horrible but ok around the house if they tickle your DHs fancy.

Your DP probably has a thing for rubber so is getting you in to these as a first step

Meglet · 24/07/2009 19:25

I love them but won't wear them as I'm over 30. I saw a girl (18ish) wearing electric blue ones the other day .

BadgersArse · 24/07/2009 19:25

how odd to opine about this as an H

CybilLiberty · 24/07/2009 19:27

I can't say I'm a fan. But then my thighs would look like two black puddings in them

CybilLiberty · 24/07/2009 19:27

I'm not sure about any dh saying 'you would look good in XXX'

SoupDragon · 24/07/2009 19:29

I can't believe you need to ask the question.

southeastastra · 24/07/2009 19:45

29 isn't too old, i don't think i could get away with the at 40 though.

go for it! i'd have worn them
