I've lost all confidence recently going from a size 6 to 12 during and around puberty. Please DON'T say bla bla it's my fault for putting on weight it's not, it's some drugs i'm taking as well.

No a size twelve is a fine size for a mini skirt, I've seen bigger sizes than that out in micro mini's guys will probs be more into you when you have a bit of a body, you find more guys like something they can cuddle as to all bones!
Im sure that you will look gorgeous in a mini hunny, just enjoy yourself!

You are not big at all. Your size is still two sizes below the average for Americans and I know that in the UK you are allowed to carry a little bit more weight without condemnation. My dream is to live there so I don't have to look at skeleton, anorexic models that have obviously not had a good meal since disco was in style. Hope this helps and love yourself unconditionally. I am in my late 40's and was always critical of the way I looked, when all along I was hot and was to concerned to even realize it or enjoy it. You take care.

It depends on how the weight looks on you - some girls look great as a size 12 because they are tall and lean, as opposed to being shorter and more round.
If you are short, you may find that a particularly short skirt actually makes you look both shorter AND fatter...It unfortunately can make some girls look a bit tarty (I've been there, and I've learnt from looking back at pictures of myself and thinking, OMG!!).
If youre over 5'6, I think you'll be fine, if your under, you may want to try a just below the knee skirt...don't forget, if you choose a just below the knee skirt, you can pump up the height of the heels which is always fun!!

Yeah, you would be a uk length 6. regrettably you have the priority of conceitedness sizing, while the type of inches on the clothing does not experience as much as the real length of your hips/waist/chest. For e.g. I even have quite a few denims that are 32-33, and my hips are actual 35 inches. Plus, many manufacturers have completely diverse sizing systems.

Uk 12 is not fat that's for sure. I can understand that you feel unconfident, it is hard when you put on weight, I know it well. Just remember that guys like curves and confidence.

If you feel confident enough, and not embarassed to wear your mini shirt then go ahead and wear it, if your not planning to wear anything to revealing then try to excersise and have a healthy diet to get back to a size 6. I DID IT SO CAN YOU!!!:) Then you can wear anything you want!
Hope this helped:)

It's not so much the size, but the firmness of the body, if your not going to be hanging out of the skirt you should be just fine!

I was not aware that American size 8 was considered fat. Most people would just call that healthy. Anything much smaller than that would look anorexic. If you have nice legs, show them off! My Granny always says "If you got it, flaunt it, honey!"

No, of course not. If you have great legs, flaunt them. UK Size 12/US size 8 is NOT fat. HTH : )
