Please be honest! I'm 42, and inclined to be a bit short 'n' dumpy. I'm fair-skinned with very dark hair. Seen a lovely matching white blouse and skirt, but not sure if I'd look like an ageing hippy ... or mutton dressed as lamb LOL! Mandy |

I would say you would look fine in white, it will show off your hair beautifully. If you want it, go for it! |

Ooops - answered before I thought of the surgical stockings! LOL I'm older than you and I would wear white - mind you I have a tiered white cotton skirt that I loved wearing until my granddaughter asked why I was wearing my nightie! LOL Go try it on - if you feel good in it - you will look good, no matter what the colour is. Mags xx |

Thank you Dan. You'll have me booking the charabanc trip won't you? Thank you for kind comments. Sue, my rear end is not a pleasant sight but luckily fuller skirts are coming back in, and they're far more flattering. Mags, lol at the nightie! Wonder what my 17-year-old son would say? Something similar no doubt! Course, I could order online and then send it back if I look too much of a fright. |

White isn't just for younger people, my mum is 81 and looks great in it. BUT it does depend on your colouring. I can only wear pure white if I am slightly tanned as I look like a corpse waiting to be buried otherwise. Not all whites are white - some are softer, tending towards creamy. The best way to see if this outfit suits you is to try it on. nell |
