You could try turning the joke into a compliment!
eg. Is THAT what you are wearing?.......Good, cos you look great in it - but then you always do! (the second remark stops any comeback!
There are some things that you cannot give the right answer to:
Does my bum look big in this? (you mean it does in other things)
Which outfit should I wear? (what's wrong with the other outfit? You liked it last time I wore it)
What colour suits me best? (so I don't look good in.....?)
Tact is always the best policy. If she does look dreadful, just say something like 'You look very nice but I always fancy you most when you in the blue dress'.
If you don't learn to say nice things, it will cost you a fortune in flowers!
Hope the advice helps!

Depends on the girl, I have only ever met one girl who you can do it to and fair play to her she dishes it straight back. She won't take it seriously either and she knows I'm only joking, likewise when she says it back. It's so refreshing and we have such a laugh, and I aint even known her that long!

Sun M, anything that you say in jest about anybody's persona really reflects on the kind of person you are. The real question is, why would you want to do that?!

It's not impossible, its the way the pun is worded. It must be done with taste, finesse, tack, and with a light heart.

Definitely! You can say "Wow, you look really great today!"
How could a woman take that badly?

Hey Sun M, that white vest you're wearing looks like my 90year old grand-dad's vest. Like it?

is there anything I can say about your personal apperance, as a joke?...It really depends on your relationship with that girl. You have to know her really well and she has to trust you with it.

no there isn't because depending on the girl it can vary about what she gets offended about, and what offends one girl may not with another, but no one thing can be guarenteed to NOT offend, not just girls, anyone in fact
