    Me:

    5ft 3
    Size 8-10
    Hourglass - substantial boobs, hips and bum but small waist

    I like:

    bright colours
    patterns

    I don't like/don't suit:

    black
    halternecks (bony shoulders)
    anything backless or that I can't wear a strapless bra with (I'm an odd bra size so I'm limited to what bra companies decide to make for me!)
    Sporty/too casual stuff (hoodies, jogging bottoms etc.)

    I made one for you!


    It looks like there's only a small triangle of space at the top of the dress, so no backless-ness! and I included the cardigan because you said that you think you have bony shoulders
    sorry if it's awful I've never made a set before!:o:

    Can we play with stuff that's stupidly expensive? Just to give outfit looks we think for the person and not necessarily the specific items?

    I just created this "look" as something i think minimo would look cute in, but realised after everything is stupidly expensive



    I guess it's probs best if we stick to more realistic items?
    thank youuuu! I love those shoes and the skirt is mega cute!

    I think it's perfectly fine to play around with expensive stuff coz it'll still give people style ideas.

    I'm craaaaap at polyvoring (yes I am that inept!!) so hopefully links will be ok

    http://www.next.co.uk/shopping/women...toccasion/31/4 I think this dress would look cute on you (obviously without the jeans...especially with your pearl earrings :yep: and with blonde hair

    this levis top with your JW grey jeans?

    for the beach or just lazing about in summer :yep:

    I'll throw myself in.


    6'2" and 65 kilos.
    So tall and skinny, but fairly broad shoulders and what little there is of me is well cut. Don't look scrawny or emaciated at all. Long legs. Medium/short hair, very dark brown. Occasionally wear solid frame glasses.

    T-shirts, typically an S but will drop to XS if necessary. M tends to be baggy, especially in button down shirts. I have fairly long arms so will usually opt for items with long arms for the size, or stuff that can be rolled up and still look nice.

    Jeans, aim for a 30/34 but 30/36 is ideal. 29/34 is very wearable too. Either skinny or straight. Dark washes, and really dislike jeans with a lot of pre-wear, silly little details or garish stitching. Like selvedge denim.

    Footwear, size 11. Boots, shoes and tasteful trainers all good. Favourite shoes are Office Oxfords. Favourite boots are Ikon Beatle Boot style things. Favourite trainers are Dunlop Green Flash or Adidas Stan Smith in kelly green.

    Particular likes:
    Checked shirts.
    Cardigans.
    High top trainers.
    Slim, stiff looking jeans.
    Quality socks.
    Close fitting items.
    Pumps.
    Fitted shirts and t-shirts.
    Clean cut, simple style.
    Low cut necks, but not deep vs.

    Dislikes:
    G-Star, Henley, etc. That look.
    Indie victims.
    Stupid details or prints.

    A quick outfit I'd wear:

    Ohh, that's really nice! Thanks! I love rings like that - that one's like the Dior rings but muchh cheaper. I don't suit rings though, I've got "tiny baby hands" (the words of my friend!)

    Re: Dress Me - A Fun New F&B Thread!
    Ooo. I love this.

    Stats:
    5ft3 (just)
    Brown curly hair, blonde highlights scattered about. Hair can look quite ginger sometimes, too.
    Hazel eyes
    Size 8 on top, 10 on bottom (8 in skirts sometimes... all dresses are size 8 too)
    Non-existant boobs, big bum and thighs, small waist. Oddly proportioned :p:
    Really pale (deathly so)- cannot wear white for this reason :tongue:

    Likes
    Skirts and dresses
    Nice shoes
    Dresses with pockets (there's something so charming about them)
    Jeans
    Long tops
    Flats- because I have a 2 mile walk to college every day
    Heels for going out
    Converses

    Dislikes
    Showing off my thighs. I have to wear tights if my legs are on show- although I do wear a lot of quite short skirts and dresses.
    Tracksuits
    Gold jewellery
    Pink things (too much pink. I could probably wear a little pink)
    Polo/turtle necks... (just depends what you choose to call them)
    Rings- cannot wear them, they just don't suit me

    Re: Dress Me - A Fun New F&B Thread!
    This sounds like the BEST FUN EVER

    Stats:
    5ft3
    30A
    6/8 in dresses and tops, 8 in trousers and skirts
    My bum/hips look disproportionately huge because I have no meat at all on my upper body
    I have browny-greeney eyes and nipple-length () dark brown messy/wavy hair + fringe

    Likes:
    This time last year I had barely any black clothes, somehow my wardrobe now seems to be 70% black? I want more colour!
    I wear lots of flowery dresses and high-waisted skirts
    Party dresses in the day-time = a key look
    I love floaty puffy skirts and I'm STILL searching for the perfect petticoat
    I get a lot of my clothes from the charity shop - my "look" (I feel so stupid saying that!) is quite random, nothing ever seems to match properly AND I LIKE THIS (think floaty princess dress worn with a children's PJ top...okay I sound really weird now)
    OH AND TIGHTS. I love tights. Colours, patterns, whatever - I just love them. (particularly the new flowery ones in Topshop, hinthint)

    Dislikes:
    Yellow and pale pink look kind of weird on me.
    I always look slightly dishevelled - even if I'm wearing a fitted skirt+smart top, somehow I still manage to look like I've just been on a 10 mile jog. So I don't think primness works on me!
    ...that's about it? I like most stuff.

    Mind if I hop in too?

    Stats

    5"10/11
    Blondy/browny hair, should length, fair bit of volume
    Size 10, sometimes size 8
    Quite lanky
    Average sized boobs - but definitely not big!

    Likes
    Colour! I have a fair few multi coloured items in my wardrobe
    Dresses
    Retro tops
    Brightly coloured cardigans
    Coloured tights
    Flats normally, unless they are particulary special heels. I end up slouchy in heels due to feeling like a 6"2 Amazonian woman...
    Jeans
    Big slouchy hoodies
    Flip flops
    Gold

    Dislikes

    "Baby" colours
    Light grey
    Any trousers which aren't jeans
    Knee length skirts
    Anything "chavvy"
    Trackies

    I'll have a go at doing someone later, after I have done a ton of revision

    Re: Dress Me - A Fun New F&B Thread!
    Sounds like a good idea
    I'm 5ft1, light brown shoulder length hair, size 12 on top and 10 on bottom, average boobs (but they look bigger coz I'm so short), bit of a tummy
    I like stuff that's fitted over my boobs but skims my tummy, not hugely confident with short skirts but would like to try a nice one, ditto with pretty dresses, anything that makes me look taller or not short and fat is good!
    Don't like some of the really modern stuff like topshop stuff, need to keep away from black and white as I wear it far too much as well.

    I'd really like a summery dress, quite casual, like some of the tea dresses etc that people have been putting on here, if anyone can help?
