7. No
No way-I think you'd look great in it!
BTW, is it vintage? It may be older than you are in that case, lol

9. Yes, it's vintage 50s. It's definitely older than I am!
I just don't think it was made with 40-ish women in mind. It was probably a prom dress.

8. It needs to be hemmed a bit
Like, say, two feet.

19. Oooooh,



...it's absolutely dreamy!


Get it, get it, get it!!!!

:bounce:



And of course, don't wear it thinking, "does this look stupid on me?" No no no! Stand up tall and smile big and think about how cool the dress is and how much fun you are having wearing it. :7


Who cares what other people think about it?! It's your life; please yourself before you please them. Confidence and attitude, that's the thing!


:woohoo:




PS - I'll bet you get LOTSA compliments on it. Vintage is all the rage anyway. And yes, you have to post a photo of you in it!
