Can you wear ripped jeans in your forties?

[TheOtherGirl]

I follow a few instagrammers and I really love how they wear ripped jeans. But I'm in my forties so not sure if I would look like mutton dressed as lamb?

These instagrammers all look really petite with skinny legs, whereas I'm quite tall and a size 12/14 but my legs are okay.

Don't want to look ridiculous (but I really love them).

my mom wear such jeans, she has great legs

Fuck it, I've ordered some from Zara. They're distressed rather than properly ripped. They're the real slim boyfriend in candi blue.
