But unless they have a side zip, I wouldn't. With two kids, you'll never have time to lace properly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-456774 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 02:17:02 +0000 kh 456774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone. I live a very casual lifestyle as a homeschooling mom. I'm usually the "dressy" mom at homeschool events wearing a skirt and knit top or dark wash jeans and blouse instead of yoga pants and over sized tee. Although, I will say that over the past year a few moms have complimented me, and I've noticed that they have started dressing nicer. </p> <p>I usually don't do trendy, but I've always loved Converse. Doc Martins always seem so big and clunky to me. I'm 5'1 and thin and I feel like those shoes would look overwhelming on me. I've never actually had a pair on my feet though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-455187 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 01:14:34 +0000 MsMary 455187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep. Team "Age is Only a Number But Mightn't You Be Happier With Some Doc Martens Instead." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-455164 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 00:49:11 +0000 lynn 455164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Age is not a problem with these but I think they are very limiting because they are so, so casual and trendy. I like the doc Martien suggestions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-455075 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 22:51:07 +0000 Jenava 455075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear, I didn't know 35 was "too old" for ANYTHING. As a (very young) 33 YO I really do not consider ANYTHING off limits to age. If I like it and feel happy in it, then it goes on my bod! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454780 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 12:42:33 +0000 Allison 454780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others... It is not so much about age as it is about styling. If it matches your personality, lifestyle, and other items in your wardrobe then go for it! If not it will probably look like you are trying too hard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454778 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 12:39:46 +0000 Vildy 454778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm always drawn to those but didn't buy them when I had the opportunity. I'm much<br /> older than you and that wouldn't be the consideration. In my eyes, they're a little too try hard for attention. Maybe if they were olive/khaki and weathered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454777 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 12:39:00 +0000 krishnidoux 454777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, you can. Not "too old". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454743 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 11:04:22 +0000 Deborah 454743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely! It's not about age but about styling I think. What do you plan to wear them with? And as Joy suggests would you consider Doc Martens? I think they would be more versatile as they can be dressed up or down whereas these are really quite casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454714 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 05:02:05 +0000 MsMaven 454714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course you can! What will you wear them with? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454682 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 03:59:52 +0000 Anonymous 454682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about Doc Martens instead? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454673 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 02:52:55 +0000 Vicki 454673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course, you can!! Spoken from someone who is quite a bit older, I don't look at numbers, but on how you feel about the clothing you love! If it makes you feel good, go for it. I bought a pair of the white 20-eyelet Dr. Martens, like Angie, and love being her twin on those. I haven't unveiled them yet, but will very soon, now that it's getting cooler. How do you plan on wearing them? With jeans, oversized sweater, jacket? What are your ideas? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-old#post-454671 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 02:44:38 +0000 kh 454671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can a 35 yr old mother of three wear these?</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/converse-chuck-taylor-xx-hi-knee-high-sneaker/3062378?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=3990" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/co.....tback=3990</a> </p>
