Is 65 too old to wear a biker jacket?

[Whyarethebestnamestaken]

I see a lot of talk about biker jackets on here but am wondering if I am too old at 65.

I am size 12 on top and 14 on the bottom and in winter like to wear skinny jeans/jeggings with almost knee length boots. I have shoulder length hair cut in a bob with fringe.

Any recommendations for a style that would suit please?

My only thought is that they are too short and I have a smallish waist but thighs are a bit on the large side!

No, mary berry wears them

No you aren't too old I mean

Pretty sure I've seen pictures of both Brigette Macron and Helen Mirren in biker jackets. I've always though both women quite stylish.

No, of course not.

Some will look terrific, some will look terrible. Just as is true at any age.

Use your mirror, not your calendar.

No it isn't. I think you should keep it simple though, no buckles, studs, etc. Something like this: www.purecollection.com/clothing/womens-jackets-coats/leather_biker_jacket_2_ink.htm

No! You'll look great! I hope I'll be wearing a biker jacket in my sixties, go for it!

Definitely not too old! I gave my mum a biker jacket that no longer fitted me (intentional weight loss) she is 70 and looks amazing in it

Of course you're not too old. Wear it and enjoy!

Of course you can!

Defo not too old!

At 51 I've learned to just go and try things on without preconceptions such as 'avoid this or that', because you just can't tell what'll look good on you if its not something you've worn before. And its much more fun to be open minded.

I love AuntieStellas 'use your mirror, not your calendar!' Please report back if you buy one.

I'm 57 and have 3.
Go for it.

You are fine to wear a biker jacket as long as it isn't with a mini skirt, stillettos and giant hoop earrings

Brigitte Macron the first lady of France is in her mid 60s, wears what the hell she wants and always looks gorgeous.

Just do it.

No

If an item of clothing suits you go for it, age shouldn't come into it.

Thanks for the advice and I will go and try a few on. Maybe buy a cheapish one to start with and see if I feel comfortable with it.

I have not read the thread but from your title alone is enough for me to scream you are never too old, wear it, rock it, love it

I think this....

(hope it works)

Oh it really didn't!!!

Basically it's an article by a women whose conclusion is women over 30 (!) should wear whatever the fuck they want! I won't attempt to post again....

Neighbour of mine has one and she is going on 96. She looks stunning in it.
