To playsuit or not to playsuit?

smoggy11

Okay, so I was thinking of getting a playsuit, but I'm not sure...

I saw a nice one in Dunnes, but it was Navy and I don't wear a lot of navy.

Anybody any ideas of where I could get a nice one?

My friend got an absolutely stunning one in A-wear last week. It's bright red and she put a gold and black belt around it the last time we went out- jaysus it was gorgeous. Going to the loo is a bit troublesome though!

My sister got a gorgeous black one with lace on it from Topshop during the sales as well but it was something like 100 quid before the sale- wouldn't be arsed paying that much for one in all fairness.

Not being harsh in any way at all OP, but playsuits really are for people with decent bodies. I've seen a few larger ladies in the playsuits with the shorts and just... no. And as a larger lady who tried one on for the craic last week I can definately say no way. Just does nothing for the figure.

I think I'm okay on that front, I go to the gym 3 times a week and have always been quite slim. A nice playsuit would make all that effort (almost) worth it!

I'll have to check out A-wear. Do you know if they have any colours other than red?

You know what I mean though, I didn't mean that against you, just my opinion on playsuits. They seem to flatter slimmer figures moreso than others. On the plus side, they make your legs go on forever!

I know they have a gorgeous bright pink one in at the moment with ruffles on it, and my friend said they had her red one in blue as well. I think New Look have some patterened ones in too. Hope you find one you like, they look fabulous when done right.

The whole faff of tights and having to take the whole yoke off to have a pee put me off....
But I do think they look lovely on the right body.

I saw a quite pretty turqouise one in the sales in Monsoon in Galway today OP. Can't find it on the site but if it's in your neck of the woods it's worth a look.

I have a navy and white print one from Penneys, sort of 1940's cut to it. I adore it but can never wear it on night's out, far too much hassle in the bathrooms!

I've got a few of em from Zara, great quality and very flattering

Some nice summery colours too.
