Leather look leggings

[Champagnetaste]

On impulse I bought some red leather look leggings from next a few months ago. At age 38, size 12 5ft 9 am I too old for these?

I’ve put them on a few times but not actually left the house with them on.

Planning to wear with a black over sized T-shirt and with black Chelsea boots or black trainers

50 wearing them with long grey jumper (still snowy in Sweden). 38 is still a baby

If you like them that's all that matters, but you would be a brave woman to do the supermarket shop in them 😬 where are you planning on wearing them? They would be great for a night out.

Love the sound of the outfit.

Bit jealous now..... aren’t they a bit sweaty/sticky to wear tho?

I’m 37 and love my leather look leggings! I work bloody hard in the gym, I do heavy weight training (or did - but I’ll get back to it after my baby is born) so love high waisted tight fitting jeans that show off my bum 😁

Mine are black though, I don’t know if I’d be bold enough to wear red but you’ll be dressing hem down a bit with your black T-shirt, so go for it! 😁

I'm really not a fan

[ShirleyPhallus]

They only look good if they’re thick enough you can’t see cellulite or camel toe

The Spanx ones are really fantastic

[VladmirsPoutine]

Never too old for anything. Except hot-pants which don't look good on anyone, any age, any size.

[Bubba1234]

Wear them! The outfit sounds so funky

Today I received my Cos real leather leggings in black that I splurged £250 on. They look bloody fabulous ... and I’m a week shy of 52, 5’8 and a size 12. I’ll be wearing them at any given opportunity

I've got exactly the same ones, in red and in black. I'm 47, and I wore them all over winter - sometimes with jumpers and boots, but also with a tight top and heels at parties.

[DantesInferno]

I bet you look awesome!

[wizzywig]

Can you post a link, ive seen ones in zara but they are cheap (£12/13) so i dont know if they are bad quality.

[EdWinchester]

Too old? I am 10 years older and live in coated jeggings at work, and I have ultra skinny leather look ones for evening.

I look fab in them

[MitziK]

Not too old at all. Wear what you bloody well like.


But don't do what one muppet I did did a few years back, which was come in from a night out and fall asleep on the brand new cream leather settee overnight in summer.

The excess dye came off my legs, eventually. But the brand fucking new settee? Nah.

[wizzywig]

So theres not an age limit on leather leggings? How do you wash them?

[HundredMilesAnHour]

I'm 49, 5'9 and wear leather or leather look leggings at least once a week, including to work. I've travelled all over the world in them. It never even occurred to me that I might be too old.

Go for it OP! Wear them!

[babysharkah]

I think they're hideous regardless of age but if you like them, wear them!

[HelloDarlin]

I don’t think it’s age, really. Are they your personal style?
Leather look leggings are not something I’d ever buy, especially red. Have you worn anything like them before?

[SnowyAlpsandPeaks]

Go for it!

I’m 38 have black leather look leggings from Karen Millen. I’ve worn them sooooo many times. They are my go to now lol

[Strokethefurrywall]

Nah you're fine! I'm 39 and last year wore pvc leggings on stage. Own it!! No doubt you look amazing!

[Champagnetaste]

I think I’m having some sort of mid life crisis as totally questioning everything about myself at the moment 🙈

[CardsforKittens]

Wear them! Wear them! Wear them!

[ShitAtScarbble]

Too old in whose opinion? I say wear what you like when you like! I would cut stone dead anyone who spouted ageist shite about anything worn by anyone - it’s just bullshit! Wear your leggings!
