As a little girl my favorite pastime was-dressing up! I swear I wore dresses like the maxi and pretended I was Laura from Little House.You are right it does look cute on very slender bodies,aka youthful,.otherwise on a more womanly figure it looks like we are trying to play dress up.I am only 28 and I laugh at this trend,my husband thinks it is the ugly,and my 7 year old would love to own 3!
