Am I too old for Vans or Converse sneakers?

| I'm 43 but on a good day I can pass for being in my late 30's. I have a boyish sort of figure (slim, narrow hips, small boobs) and every now and then still buy jeans from the Juniors section. I want to get a pair of Vans or Converse sneakers to wear with skinny jeans (I don't like how regular sneakers look in them) but wonder if I will look like I'm trying too hard. Just a grey or black pair-nothing flashy or super trendy. Thoughts or suggestions? |

Converse are fine! My sister is the same age and wears them all the time -- they're cute if you're wearing them with the right outfit.
I just don't know Vans so I can't opine on those. |

| I'm 43 and the only sneakers I wear are converse. Unless I'm playing tennis or something. |

| I'm 38 and wear both! My favorites are silver converse from a few years ago. |

37 & I wear both--have been since 1994.
They are classics--timeless & ageless. |
