love it but definitely you would need to be no bigger than size 12 and have fabulous legs

redhappy · 19/06/2010 07:28

I think that's beautiful, I think anybody could wear it actually

samsonara · 19/06/2010 07:33

you need nice shoulders and legs as it's quite short , think it would look lovely on someone who either has the bod or is in their 20s

carriedababi · 19/06/2010 17:46

oh i bought it today

it is very lovely in RL and very flattering.

I think it's stunning and would buy it if I had the legs.

carriedababi · 19/06/2010 17:56

i can't decide to go for hair up or down though.

i need some relly nice earrings to go with this too.

I've got it in red.It's gorgeous.I had so many compliments.

I wore a size 14 and had my hair up and statement ear rings,with Indian style heels.I also wore a flower in my hair, worn on the opposite side of the shoulder strap.

carriedababi · 19/06/2010 22:52

rexy, i didn't see it in red

oh yes i really fancy some statement/chandlier earings with it

dh perfers it with my hair down, i think it probably looks better up

It was available in March as I bought it for my party.

Perhaps just pin the sides of your hair up as a bare neck really makes the outfit come to life.

carriedababi · 19/06/2010 23:14

yes i did trythat, sweept to one side jobbie.

i thought it looked rather nice.

thanks for your advice
