Is 37 to old for a denim jacket?

[OhKnow70]

I think I want one looked at the last spring but chickened out now find myself looking at them again. Is 37 going on 38 to old for a denim jacket? And if not what does one wear with them as I am way to old for the double denim look, I mainly wear jeans so would have to invest in some new clothes for my bottom half.

I hope not - I'm 38 and I've just bought one! I'm planning on wearing it with casual dresses in the summer.

I used to think like this OP. I used to worry that I was dressing too young for my age. I was 25 when my ex told me I was trying to dress like a teenager for wearing cropped jeans (note ex). I'm 42 now and wear whatever the hell I want, including denim jackets (which I rock by the way). No such thing as too old; not confident enough maybe...

What one did you get? Yes I like the look of them with dresses but haven't worn a dress in years. I'm quite short 5ft 3 so some dresses are a bit long. I am a size 10 are peite dress just shorter and not narrower everywhere does anybody know?

Yes I think it might be a confidence thing to be honest, jeans and a jumper is safe!

I still wear mine and I'm a lot older than you!

Absolutely not. They're a classic. I don't think they go all that well with trousers on me though. I tend to wear mine with midi/maxi dresses and then turn up the cuffs a bit.

I also hope not. Am 37 this year and wear one in the summer/spring with dresses and skirts.

I've also done double denim with colourful trainers.

I got a Levis one on Amazon for a bargain £27 after a recommendation on here!

Not sure about petite clothing... I'm 5ft 7 and a size 16...! I have the opposite problem to you - lots of dresses are just a fraction too short!

Nobody is too old for a denim jacket! Definitely get one

Definitely not! Check out NEXT. They have a petit range and a darker blue jacket that I really like!

I'm petite. I wear my denim jacket or a khaki "shacket" all through spring and summer! No such thing as too old, wear what you want!
Petite dresses tend to be shorter length, but normal widthways!

I need to pop to next to collect a parcel of clothed for the dc so will be brave and try one on. Good to hear petite is just shorter and not narrower.

I am about 5 ft 2 and when I was younger and smaller (size 6) I used to get so upset because dresses would just absolutely drown me. I tried petite and never looked back! I'm an 8/10 now and still wear petite for dresses skirts trousers jeans etc. So in my experience petite is just shorter, not narrower.

Anyway - point is, get yourself some petite dresses AND a denim jacket!

I'm 51 and wear mine.

Not with blue jeans, though - not a fan of double denim. But it goes with pretty much everything else.

I don't think denim jackets are at all an age thing, in fact nothing should really be an age thing anyway!

I bet baddiewinkle wears one, and she's nearly 90, so I'm going to say you're not too old.

I'm 37 and wear a denim jacket but have been looking for another spring jacket to wear with jeans as I agree about the double denim........

I just saw that New Look have denim jackets in pink and lemon which I thought might be good for summer with jeans.

yes, it is too old. You should be wearing layers of shawls, preferably moth eaten.

The CEO of my work cane in today, she’s 68, size 8 at the most. Usually wears a two piece channel number. Her grandkids made her wear a 90’s dress and a demin jacket, and she looked amazing!! So yes, go for it

I'm way older than you and I wear one, mostly with dresses in the summer!

Your not too old at all
A slightly cropped denim jacket would be good if you are on the petite side.

They look great with Black jeans on a cold day or summer dresses.

I can't believe people my age are already thinking they're too old to wear stuff. I've never even considered I might be too old to wear anything.

I'm 36 and still wearing mine and loving it!

I don't know how to say this without sounding harsh but deargodallmighty!!! Too old? For a denim jacket????

37 isn’t old! Wear what you like, age shouldn’t be a barrier. Cultivate a FTS badass attitude and have fun!
