PINK on over 35's??? Hmmmmmm

[Otter]

I am not at all sure about it?
Smacks of mutton - what do you all think?

tell that to nina myskow (sp ?)

ahh yes a very good case in point!

only if it really suits them - if it does they can wera it forever

(probably not hot pink lycra though)

I look shite in pink despite my youthfulness

I'm over 35 and I wear pink.. is that wrong?

I dont wear bright fuschia pink, just subtle pale ones usually or maybe a dusky one.. I had no idea I was being mutton

Personally think pink over the age of 10 is WRONG...

If you think over 35 is ok, what age do you think is wrong (I am thinking of Barbara Cartland)...

I wear pink too

so does dh come to think of it

Im 44 and ALWAYS wear pink, it so my colour! Love it to bits (baby pink, not raspbery or dark pinks); I dont think the question should be about colour, more about style; there are styles for teens, then 20-30 (and poss early 40's), then...etc

Equally though, its how you feel; if you like the 'younger' style look, and its suit you, then why not - eh? live and let live I say xx

in fact, I don't think I started wearing pink till I was about 30ish. Before then, I was too into black .

I'm 43 and wear pink occasionally.

Suits my skin colour.

aha, crossed posts Dior!

DP has a bright pink linen shirt I bought him and he looks really rather fabulous it. And I don't say that about him often.

(He has the same dark skin as I suspect you have, Mercy.)

Whereas I personally have abandoned the fuschia to which I used to be partial, on account of having red hair.

pink looks lovely on dark skinned men

dh has olive skin and it really suits him

'pink is for poor people' Blimey.

MI, I'm actually very, very light brown-skinned but with really dark brown hair and eyes. Still suits me though!

Yellow is def not my colour.

I love pink, and a sort of rose pink is my best colour. Wearing it makes me look me much younger as it flatters my skin tone better than any other colour.

Any neutral, dark or "sophisticated" colours make me look ill.

So....I may be now thought of as trailer trash...buuut don't give a ***!

Depends on the over 35 and the type of pink. Hot pink hotpants for eg, then no.

complete rubbish, def depends on colouring - my mum wore pink to my brother's wedding recently, she's 65 and looked great

Trinny & Susanna say pink worn with black is tarty. I can see where they're coming from but I still do it eg pink vest top under long black skirt and black cardi.

pink suits me but i don't wear large amounts of it or look a bit piggy.

Hmmmm, depends on the shade. I wear a very, very light pink occasionally, but I've never gone for loud (with the exception of my gob).

i saw a 60-70 year old with snappy pink handbag and pink shoes

very pricey looking and lovely but just not right
