Yay or Nay

I'm generally not a fan of hearts, but that's just me. Otherwise, I like the shape of it.

I'm going to be honest and say no. I'm not a fan of hearts on anything. Reminds me too much of dd's clothing.

Re: Yay or Nay

lol.. ok. no go on the dress. I guess people feel about hearts on older women, the way I feel about skulls on older women. lol

buuut I still love hearts so I may look for a more subtle pattern/ item of clothing.

sooo funny! Wanna see what I just bought? Chat Icon

haha!

I was on the fence about it (I'm 40!) but my plan is to wear it under a black flowing cardigan so just part of it will be exposed. After I put my hesitant order in, my friend texted me and suggested we make plans to go to Besito on November 2-- during their Day of the Dead celebration! yay!

ooh, do you like this tank?
maybe under a blazer?

Make sure it's long enough. Me personally, I couldn't pull it off. Hears at an older age are tricky. Usually looks cheap but I can't judge until I see it on

Not digging the hearts. Take away the hearts, say plain or even polka dots, I'd say yay.

I feel like in a sweater it would be more doable.

They have one at Kohl's that I've been wanting. But I stopped myself because I thought "Am I too old for that?" But then I saw someone else around my age with it on and it looked so cute!! Now I want to go buy it.

Personally, I'd say yay. I really like the dress! I'm 27, with no kids to wear the same outfits as me. Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: Is this alloy the same Alloy from back in the day? When you used to get the magazines sent to your house? No judgements, I just ordered a pair of pants and flats from Delia's fairly recently. And they were awesome. Chat Icon

Oh, guess i'm doomed. I am wearing a beige sweater today with black hearts all over it. Dressed it up with an ornate looking long necklace, fitted black pants and boots. I also have a skull tank that I wear under my blazers/sweaters.

I'm just past my mid 30's. Oh well....I feel like, don't like it? Don't look. lol

Re: Yay or Nay

I actually love hearts on clothing for women, but this screams 80's to me. I think I'd like it better if the hearts were much smaller. I love this top for instance:

Re: Yay or Nay

I really don't take issue with hearts- or skulls for that matter- on women of any age.
I just felt the way they were done on this one was very teenager and yes, very 1980s.
My other issue with this dress is the length.
I mean it really isn't even a dress- it's more a long sweater or tunic.
You can practically see the models va jay jay!
