Hi, I don't normally do this...I just feel so down at the moment and I have absolutely nothing in my wardrobe that looks good on me with the size I am - my legs and arms are the main problem!

I have a party to go to and I just feel crap in everything I try on...this was the only decentish outfit I can wear....what do you think?

This is the main reason I avoid going out to parties, because I always feel like I don't belong with the way I look.

    I don't see anything wrong with that outfit, I think its cute! You are just feeling self conscious, I get like that every day pretty much lol Just try to not think about how you look and focus on having fun

    I don't think it matters what you wear, if you don't feel comfortable you won't look comfortable.

    If my opinion really counts I think the outfit looks great, to the point were I can't see the arm/leg issue at all!

    I think the outfit looks great! I'd hike up the skirt though, to show off your perfectly fine legs, and from the words of Stacey London and Clinton Kelly, maybe do a dressier sandal that doesn't cut off your great legs with the ankle strap feature, but a more open and strappier sandal that lengthens anyones legs visually..and one with a higher heel paired with that dressy skirt.

    I think your outfit looks just great on you! You have nothing to worry about! I'd kill for your body right about now!! Lol.

    cute outfit, although i'm not thrilled about the shoes and the skirt could be hemmed a few inches to above your knee. i think you look great in it

    I agree with the others on the hem and sandals. But, hey, they aren't really 'deal breakers'. You still look fabulous!

    Your body isn't the problem... It looks great!
    The way you feel about yourself is.

    My suggestion? Put your shoulders back and wear a smile!
    Many, many women would kill to look like you.

    Parties can be lots of fun if you want them to be!
    Choose to relax and enjoy.

    I know how you're feeling as I think we all have days when we feel bad about ourselves and nothing in our wardrobe looks right. Personally I think you have a fab figure...I wish I had your waist!!...I think you could wear a lovely LBD and a nice pair of heels, you'd carry it off no problem.

    You look great and could easily go out like that! Show off the legs :) If you are self conscious about your arms (eek! The thought of people seeing my arms disturbs me greatly…) throw on a shawl/pashmina...
