Can a middle aged woman wear these?

[SpottyShoeBow]

What say you?

[MikeUniformMike]

If you like them, wear them. Age has nothing to do with it.

They are in the Clearance for a reason.

I can absolutely see Iris Apfel rocking these and she's in her 90s and almost certainly more stylish than any Mumsnetter who would say you 'can't' wear these

[YewandOak]

I'm 55 and would wear them,they're gorgeous!

[SirVixofVixHall]

Yes of course ! I know a few middle aged women who wear shoes like that. You like them, you wear them.

[megletthesecond]

Grayson Perry could wear them.
They'd look fab on someone over 70. No one else needs them though.

[SpottyShoeBow]

But then I do have to say that some of the items referenced in S & B.. Eg some of the classic ballet pumps etc I wouldn't wear for love nor money. They are horrible imo.

[VerbenaGirl]

I’m middle aged. I like them. I would wear them.

[dottiedodah]

Surely if you like them thats all that matters! Maybe not to everyones taste but if you to then go for it!

[FuckingHateRats]

Oh no. No. No no no.

[sauvignonblancplz]

They are lovely - wear what you like

[JohnMcCainsDeathStare]

They certainly look better for the feet than court shoes.

[OhLook]

I love DMs in general, but thst kind of style look like over grown toddler shoes and have a kind of DDLG vibe. Not my cup of tea at all.

[Roominmyhouse]

Love them! Where are they in the sale?

[TheWordmeister]

They are foul.

But a pet hate of mine is middle-aged women in wacky shoes.

[GrockleRock]

[Oblomov20]

Vile.

[Lucked]

I think if all this hate is making you defend them and want them more then you have your answer.

[TorkTorkBam]

My best friend who is 50 would wear those and look amazing. Probably with orange cord flared cropped dungarees. And look amazing. Because she goes all in. You know it is a deliberate look not a mistake. She works in The Arts dahling.

Me I work in boring and dress boring with an edge. I would not wear those shoes. Never ever.

[Racheyg]

Not to my taste but I wear what the hell I like so I say go for it!!

[LuxuryWoman2020]

I kind of like them, not my taste at all but I can see with the right outfit they could work. If you love them get them.

[mum29919]

Absolutely! I love them! I'd wear them with ankle grazer black jeans or a plain ish midi dress. Your age shouldn't matter, if you like them wear them!

[BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo]

Why would you want to look like an over grown toddler?

[Frenchw1fe]

They look like a child’s party shoes to me.
Your money your choice.

[OneOfManyDays]

Oh my. These are really quite horrific! But each to their own!

[RaisinsRuinEverything]

They look comfy. Are they Dr Martens?
