What about this dress?

I'm not a S&B regular, as I am not very fashionable, so please be gentle with me!

I've walked past my local phase eight and admired this dress in the window. It's also in a nice grey.

I tried it on today but I was alone so have no feedback.

I'm 43, 5'3" and a curvy size 14 with reasonable norkage. I am on a major health and fitness drive so although my arms and legs are chunky they are toned.

But ... I have reddish hair and fair skin. Is a purple knee length dress a no-no?

I need some fashion advisers. I feel as if I haven't worn anything interesting since I had children (4, 6) so I don't feel I know any longer what's right, beyond my tiny mummy comfort zone.

OOH, if it was me Golden Rosette, did you see me in it and what did you think?

Think I'm getting the bluey grey one

It was lunchtime, the day I posted. If it was you, you said I should try it on again and you'd tell me if it looked ok, as I was feeling so pale. But I didn't take you up.
