Hmmmm... Not knowing your style it's hard to comment. If I were 30 and a size 8 I might go for something a little more dressy but I think it'll look good on you. As would anything probably cow

It'll make you look like you've got big hips

With clothes on I am passable - sans clothes I make small children cry
I aspire to a casual rock chick look but am scared I will fall into the mutton dressed as lamb bracket. The friends I will be going out with are all about 5 years younger than me and childless.

I am not keen on the dress-but as a size 8 and only 30 I think you could wear what you like and look great.

I like it.It would look dreadful on me though. What shoes?

Ooh think it's lovely, esp for your casual rock chick look. Deffo not mutton dressed as lamb with your vital statistics. Is dressy and casual at the same time.

love it ! but be carefull with your accessories, the wrong ones will make it look cheap.

You're too young for mutton! You're only 30 and it definitely works for the rock chick look. Go for it!

Thank you ladies, I have massive mutton paranoia

I would probably wear it with these shoes in black

nice shoes ! - your my kind of girl, £25 for a dress and £££££s on the shoes ! .

no mrs mutton can wear shoes that are Lamb ! pmsl! lol

Hmm, I'm not too sure about the dress. I wouldn't wear it. Will you wear tights?

You willlook fab!

You wouldn't look like mutton dressed as lamb......but you might look at bit chav........sorry.

[clueless now when it comes to fashion] emoticon, so don't listen to me!

Curly i totally disagree , the chav look would only happen if op goes overboard with hair makeup and accessories, keep it subtle because its a "busy" dress and it will be lovely.

funny you say casual rock chick as my first thought when i clicked on your link was "Paula Yates"

but think those shoes too spindly .. need something heavier to balance out proportions of dress ... heeled ankle boots would work, or heels with thicker bandage-age (made that up, does it make any sense?) and chunkier heels....

Thanks ladies, will be simple hair and emphasis on eye make up me thinks.
Know what you mean LTEC will try on a few different pairs of shoes, just like an excuse to wear my fancy shoes
