Should people over 50 wear jeans? - Page 11

Yes, although I'm the one who likes higher waisted jeans. They're more comfortable for me. Not tight around the tummy.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

No matter what the size, no matter what the age, people have to wear something. If jeans are their choice, that's fine. People who do not like jeans on older people, or bigger people or skinny people probably wouldn't like anything else that's available either. Maybe society would like for the "undesirables-those over a certain age, or weight or proportion" disappear, it's not going to happen. Before deciding someone should not wear a certain item, try to imagine them in something you think would look better. Chances are, that look would not be popular either. Some people could wear a potato sack and look fantastic and others could wear clothing made for royalty and still look like they need help. Be happy with your choice and don't let anyone else's opinion be your compass. People comfortable and confident in their skin and clothes look beautiful no matter what.

Of course people over 50 should wear jeans. People who are turning 50 this year were born in 1968 and I doubt that they would think of themselves as over the hill.

I don't know if they "should," but I am going to. I really don't know of anyone having the "authority" to tell me not to.

I've worn jeans all of my life, but they have never been my favorite. Back in the day, they were unbearable. Now, I have several pair of the knit jeans. They're the only kind I'm interested in wearing now.

Take Diane Gilman's jeans. I don't think the age of 50 or any age has to do with it. If you don't mind showing it all, after the bloom is off the rose, go right ahead. Wear what you like, as long as you like.

I like that poem about wearing purple when I get old. When that was written purple must never have been a pantone color.

I don't know any reason ladies over 50 should not wear jeans - but they should be appropriate to their body shape and size. VERY FEW women who are post menopause have a body that looks good in skin tight clothing.

Im 72 and jeans is all I wear. I do not wear dresses or skirts or dress slacks. I even wear jeans to church.

I'm joining the "over 50" group (63) in saying heck yes! I wear C. Wonder jeans in several styles right here from QVC. Their fabric is light weight and has a little stretch and does not shrink or need ironed. 5 *****'s. Oh oh this has turned into a review lol
