I made another post about having big legs and wanting to buy a cute dress I found.. well I did it.. I got it as a present from my mom today... I didn't realize until I came home that it was as short as it was in the back.. because of my large but it comes up almost to my butt check unless I pull it down... it doesn't show anything though.

I didn't get a great picture of the back or of it showing off my big legs because I was attempting to take the pictures myself.. but going with these pictures I took.. would you guys wear it in public.. do I look ok in it? (And I won't have my hair up and not sure about that necklace.. just wanted to try something, what do you think?)

Be honest please!

(If the pictures don't work give me some time to figure it out please! I am uploading 7 from photobucket) I got them first try woot.. sorry they are cut off the side.. it always does that to me... but you see basically what I wanted to show off!

    I think it looks cute! If you feel uncomfortable, you can always get some cropped leggings to wear. I do this sometimes when I love the dress but don't want to risk showing my butt.

    I got it at Kohl's :) It was actually in the "junior" section which would explain why it comes up so far in the back... but they have such cuter clothes than the womans section.. and to be able to wear something from that section (though it was the largest they had lol) is amazing!!

    I love it! It looks really cute! I'm not really a dress or skirt person either but I found if I wear cute tights or something underneath it looks good and makes me feel more comfortable. :smile:

    I really like how it accents your waist. It gives you a very femine figure.

    The dress is fabulous, and you look happy in it (which is MOST important imo)

    To feel better about your 'big legs', wear shoes with some height. Pumps or low heels work, higher heels do very well if you can handle walking in them. They help slim your leg lines and give the impression of leaner legs.

    I'm wondering if a little vest/scarf would do well with this dress. Something of a blue color to match your necklace (the necklace being dark kinda throws me off with the light/bright dress). Try something that ends near the belt of the dress, emphasizing the small area beneath your breasts to take attention off of a wider belly.

    These are all just fashion tips from websites I have gathered up for myself as I start to really shop for clothes. I think the most important and easiest thing you can do to look great in ANY outfit, is to exhibit immense self confidence! You are beautiful, and when you truly believe in that, you look the part (as you should :smile: because you ARE beautiful!)

    I agree. Get some cropped leggings if you feel uncomfortable. But, it does look good on you and you seem so happy in it.

    You look GREAT!! And like the others said ....if you feel uncomfortable get a little pair of leggings . You can get knee length in a pastel color. That would be very cute! :)

    lol well it's great to hear! I just wanted opinions before I wore it out.. I would really hate to look terrible in something and make a fool of myself! I would rather wait if I need to...just being able to fit in it is sooo amazing it's beyond words!

    The more I loose weight I fear the more my husband is going to have problems to get me to wear pants again in the summer haha.

    It is really cute on you! however, I think you will find that you are always pulling it down and fearing that a sudden gust of wind is going to reveal to the world your goodies all day long! lol.... so I think what would totally top the dress off would be some super cute leggings, I bought a pair of leggings/spandex shorts that have lace at the bottom of them that go right to my knee, I have a black and white pair, I LOVE them, I wear them under all my dresses that are just a little too short for me..

    I don't know about you but I hate feeling self councious in an outfit when I walk out the door... you have nothing to be self councious about body wise! you are lookin faboulous! but if you think the dress is too short chances are it is, so throw on a pair of super cute tights (macy's sells fun ones for like $10 dollars) and a cute jean jacket! the necklace is great! especially if you dress it up with a jean jacket or sweater!

    Thanks guys! I will check out leggings and see how they look underneath it.. we don't have a Macy's around here.. but I will check back at Kohl's and at Walmart and see if I can find anything. I know Amazon probably has something if I can't find anything else.

    And yeah I wasn't expecting it to raise up so much in the back.. my husband was the only one to see me in person in it so far and he said it looked great.. leave it to a man to not mention hey if you bend over I can see your undies.. he probably wanted me to hahaha. (I don't know if it's that bad lol, I didn't want to try haha).

    Eyelet sundresses r so cute for summer! You look fab! That scarf idea from the above poster sounds great, it'll make your neck look super long and give the dress a long silhouette.
