I'm 45. Am I too old to wear these Frye boots?

Fryes are very comfortable but need to be broken in first. Buy them now and wear them regularly before your trip.

I don't want to judge, but this just says a whole lot about you. Give it up, girl!

Good for skinny people, you're not too old

No - but I'd get them from Zappos so you can try on 4 or 5 pairs of Frye boots and send the rejects back.

to the PP: when you're 45, i hope you'll have finally learned that age is a state of mind. being a shallow judgementallist is a state of mind too. hope you grow out of it.

Definitely true of the Veronicas. They are pretty stiff, with a very hard sole. But the Annas linked above are super-soft and need zero break-in time.

I turn 50 in a couple of weeks and I wear that style of boots. What else am I supposed to wear?

Can someone explain how these could be considered too young for a woman of any age? They seem like the sort of classic basic boot you could wear throughout your life. You might not be wearing them over skinny jeans if you are 80, but I think they'd still look nice under boot cut or straight jeans or slacks.

Love the Veronicas and and the Annas. Don't own either, but might buy one. Styling question ... I wear straight jeans, but not skinnies. (Have too big a bum and thick-ish thighs.) If I wear short boots with straight jeans, do I tuck the jeans into the boots? Roll the jeans up to the top of the boots? Ugh, as I'm typing this, I think I know the answer. No short boots, right?

If I saw a middle-aged woman wearing these boots, I'd think she was a total badass.

HAHHAHAHAHA!

NP here. PP is clearly one of those who mortgaged her house for Uggs, and just found out they are "out".

Go back to Romper Room, kid. You don't have a clue.

No kidding! When I was looking at them on Nordstrom's site, many of the reviews were by women in their 60s.
