Wanted some exactly like this for ages but are they a bit young?

ffs OP, I was at least hoping you'd link to something like these colourful leggings. Olive green skinnies, yeah, you're fine as long as you feel comfy on them.

I’m a few years younger than you and ordered them just two weeks ago!

Great trousers! Definitely not too old!

To answer I wasn't asking because they are skinny jeans.

I tried these on in the shop and the zips are quite noticeable also the colour.

I'm probably being really silly, I put on a couple of stone after having dc2 and spent quite a few years wearing nothing but black leggings and long t-shirts, I've lost a lot of weight the last couple of years I'm finding the confidence again to actually wear nice clothes, I've completely overhauled my wardrobe with pretty skirts dresses, culottes but sometimes still question whether I should wear something.

I've been wearing skinny jeans since 1978.

Honestly, nobody cares. Wear what you want with what you want. Go to a shop, buy stuff you want, wear it. Job done. Wear it with whatever boots you want. Or trainers you want. Or tops you want.

I love these 😍 I’m late 30s and would wear them

Yup. 42 and wear this kind of thing every day.

The 38 bit is irrelevant, it’s more do you feel comfortable and confident and like the style.

Cargos are big for A/W. Skinnies not so much.

The angst over a pair of bloody trousers.

I'm sitting opposite my nearly 70 year old mother who has prominent zips on her trousers tonight. You're all good.

60 plus, I’d wear the colour and the zips but skinnies are so dated, I feel frumpy in them.

You wear what you feel good in. If you want to wear them, do it. If you’ll always feel they aren’t quite right for you - perhaps you are more classic and sophisticated nowadays, more of a capsule wardrobe person, perhaps you like skirts more - don’t get them, you’ll never be quite relaxed.

It’s a pair of trousers

It depends on your figure, not your age.

I don’t understand why they wouldn’t be ok

It's true about the skinny jeans....they're looking so dated! I wouldn't be seen dead in skinnys anymore but I truly believe what you feel best in you look best in so if you feel good in these, go for it! They're perfectly nice! Would wear with a slightly loose plain top (maybe boxy white tee) and trainers to sort of balance out the skinny bottom half.

No. They are just skinny jeans in another form.

I’d say you wear what you like but Just out of interest, what age would you say there were for!?

Yeah abso-bloody-lutely fine!

You can wear what ever you want at any age.

My only problem with high waisted jeans is that the waist rolls down when I sit down! 😂

My 55 year old mate has those. I actually had to look hard as I wasn’t actually sure what you were talking about they are a bog standard pair of coloured jeans.

I’d wear them and I’m nearly 60 lol!!

No go for it, you'll look amazing!

What even does dated mean?

Women have worn skinny trousers since the 50s, so what date in the last 70 years does a pair of skinny trousers signify that is relevant enough to you to not be seen dead in a pair?

This sort of utter nonsense is what makes normally sensible women throw perfectly good clothes away lest the school mums die of the shock of seeing another woman in The Wrong Trousers.

To be fair though you should probably give the cullottes a miss. 😄

I’ve had a couple of pairs of jeans just like them for years. I wear them a lot in winter.

I’m ten years older than you. Take it from me - you really can wear what you like, when you like. No-one cares.
