Yellow patent doc martin boots - mad at 30?

[Theantsgomarching]

I've seen some in tkmax and LOVE them. Am I 15 years too old?

No.

Maybe!
My DS (age 9) loves the patent green ones that they have got in at the moment.

No!

If you like them, do it!
They'll be great for winter.

I really really want them. But the rest of my wardrobe doesn't really scream "oh, yellow docs would be perfect with this".

Will I look really stupid????

I hate to say it but I think you might!

you will be channelling Krusty the Clown

Okay, Okay...

Being 30 sucks {grins]

Or even

Being 38 is even worse

Maybe I should buy them and keep them until I'm much older and don't care what anyone else thinks anymore

Not mad. I have a 60 year old friend still in Docs.

NO.

Expat - is that NO don't get them, or NO it is not madness?

do NOT get them!

Right, decision made. My dh thanks you all

I'll get over it eventually I'm sure...

No, no, no. I burnt hid dh's yellow docs some years ago.

Get New Rocks instead!

Get em if ya like them. Please promise not to wear them with a checked shirt.
I think a bit of a wink at your teenage self is ok just not the whole ensemble.

I once worked with a 30-something who wore yellow Croc wellies.

She wore them once.

She never lived it down!

V. cute on 9-year-olds and some emo teens.

Please don't listen to the boring people. Life is for living! If you want to wear yellow DMs, go for it! It really is a small thing, in the scheme of things.

I have a fantastic pair of purple patent DMs, and I love them. Really, who cares if some judgey people don't like them? I really get a lot of pleasure (and compliments) when wearing them.

Mine came from TK Maxx too, if they're a bargain, grab them, they won't be there long!

They're in TKMax because they've been sold on after failing to sell elsewhere. Because they are fugly.

Just don't.

Yes, by all means get them- just be sure to gouge out my eyes so that I have absolutely no chance of accidentally seeing them.
