Hi, its my daughters christening and I have bought this dress, slightly longer on me that on the photo. Also I have some shoes that I thought would be ok with the dress (Mary Janes).

I thought I could wear the dress after the christening (to the pub) with leggings and strappy sandles.

too short for leggins, unless you have amzingly toned legs. wear with skinny jeans, and it will look nice.

It's like a nightie.

I think it's really cute and I'm 30! Definitely have to wear it over leggings or jeans though. I don't think anyone would wear it with bare legs like in the photo - have you seen how see through the skirt is?!?

I really like it and if it is just above the knee I would happily wear that to one of my DC's christenings (with opaque tights and shoe boots)
I am 34, not that it matters

If it comes to below your knee, I think it's fab, love the pattern.

It's OK, a little twee for my taste.
