Jeans or No Jeans ?

Options
Not quite sure if this is moneysaving or not :D

At what age should women stop wearing jeans ?

(I'm carefully keeping clear of size :p )

(I accept no responsibility if this is viewed as a sexist post ;) )

I suppose the moneysaving bit is relavent as denim is more hardwearing than any other fabric.

    Not sure if I ever intend to stop , as long as they are comfortable and fit me I will carry on..... sorry but I really hate to see older ladies in those nylon elastic waisted , one size fits all pants....... I am by no stretch of the imagination a small person but as long as my daughters don't say , oh god mother you cannot go out like that :eek: (and they would I have no doubt) I will wear whats looks good and is comfy...... ;)

    Is there a reason why you ask Dora?

    I love my jeans & am lucky enough to be very slim & young looking for my age so can get away with a nice snug fit & the dropped waist styles.

    I wouldn't be seen dead in trainers though, not my style. I like nice shoes & boots too much. :p

    It doesn't look so good to me when you see people with jeans that are all baggy & saggy around the bum. Nor if quite large people wear quite tight jeans. But at the end of the day, if they feel comfortable in what they are wearing, that's all that matters really.

    I hope you enjoy wearing your new jeans lanyroo. :)
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    .........you tend to find that's the case with or without the jeans! :rotfl:


    Sorry Dora, studiously avoiding the question. The wife tends to check my posts from time to time. Anon

    Interesting posts..........just what I hoped for. My view is even though a woman may look 65 from the front - if she doesn't look 16 from the back in jeans she should graduate to something a little less unforgiving.
    Mike - you were very wise to post anonymously :rotfl:
