dh's response to this outfit was that I don't need to try and keep up with the young people anymore...is he right?

Hello.

Work do coming up and hoping to look half decent. I loved this this

with leggings and silver high heels. I'm only just over 30. Is it so terrible?!!

If it is,any suggestions welcome - I am pear-shaped,size 14,5 6, big bum, no boobs and my best features are my wrists (haha!)

Thank you!

it's lovely and definitely not a very young persons outfit

WTF?

You'll look great in that... and it's from monsoon, not tammy girl ffs

I think he must be a bit daft! Looks fine to me

No that's lovely - you dh needs to get a grip!

Tell me you are joking???

He's an eejit who clearly doesn't want you going out in that outfit because of how damn HOT you will look!!

The dress is gorgeous! Admittedly I would do opaques rather than leggings but your outfit sounds fab!

It is lovely and leggings / heels are the right way to go. Never rely on a husband for matters of fashion...mine is certainly not "on trend". At 30 you are still one of the "young people". Much better seeking advice from a girlfriend who knows the difference between her "jeggings" and her elbow!

eh? How old is he?

Agree with Bunny about tights not leggings...

I'm 30 too and very, very young with it so tell DH to fuck off and wear the dress, it's nice and it's from Monsoon which isn't a shop for young people, far too expensive for the yoof.

Huh? I'd wear that and I'm 38...

OMG - you guys have made my day!

Dh is a great guy and saved me from a disasterous wedding outfit in the Summer, so was genuinely worried.

Will try with opaques, thanks for the suggestion.

Tell your grandad DH you are a young person.

Snort, I don't think the young 'uns shop in Monsoon.

Not silver leggings unless you a size 8 (I am not, sob)

Wear it, you'll look fabulous.

Buy him a pair of elbow patches for Christmas.

I thought being in your 30's was young, may punch dh for thinking its not

It's gorgeous and you're 30 FGS, not ninety! I'm 34 next bday and wear leggings all the time.

Buy it and wear it with pride, woman!

No one under 30 would shop in Monsoon for starters!
And that dress is gorgeous, someone esle on here was ordereing it yesterda.
I am 38 and am wearing jeggings today

Gorgeous. Ignore your DH.

LOL at elbow patches Heated.

Like everyone else, you'll look fab and from your OP you sound like you have a sense of humour and can carry off a 'youthful' look just fine.

Tights not leggings though.

great ideaq
love the idea

I remember in about 1996 me trying on my FIRSt pair of boot cut trews

dh looked at me and said " they are a bit young"
readers
I was 26

NO NO NO...stick to your original plan...leggings and heels will look FABULOUS with this tunic. remember that in fact leggings as we know them started out as exactly the trousers that go with tunic dresses in different cultures. it's a no brainer!

Hi again.

Really appreciate all the responses,been making me laugh loads. Will get it tomorrow. Am inclined to go with the leggings, but will try tights too.

Thanks so much

oh i misread this as SILVER leggings and heels

do that too
