That makes them look not too teenager-y. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1051021 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 05:39:57 +0000 cmomma17 1051021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't know this was a trend either, so I'm sure my style is pretty lame! :) I'm sure they would be cute with jeans and 34 is not old!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1050950 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 00:09:35 +0000 birdofafeather 1050950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: absolutely a compliment! xo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1050931 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 23:34:11 +0000 shopaholic 1050931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: you guys are too sweet! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1050899 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 22:59:59 +0000 HLK208 1050899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: you're so fun and trendy, plus you have great skin - I just always assumed you're in your twenties! Definitely a compliment and I think I can speak for most of those, "I thought you were younger" comments :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1050891 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 22:55:17 +0000 HLK208 1050891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way!!! Those are cute! Even though I think you look younger than 34, I still think they are perfectly fine to wear at 34! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1050890 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 22:53:30 +0000 shopaholic 1050890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: haha! You're so kind! Or at least, I'm taking that as a compliment whether you meant it or not! :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1049164 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:25:36 +0000 StbHisMrs 1049164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: Will those give you enough height? I'm not even 5' and I wouldn't consider them as an option because they don't look high enough ;)<br /> I totally get you on not wanting your pants to drag, I still have to roll them under even with heels!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1049130 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:17:37 +0000 allison 1049130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd wear skinny jeans and boots/other shoes. Especially because you have to buy these shoes (right?) and you won't even see them because of your jeans. I don't think they're cute enough to justify buying them just so your pants don't drag the ground. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1049119 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:15:22 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1049119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 34 might be riding the line *but* you are so cute and not 34 looking so, they will def work! I think they're pretty cool, especially for Okt.</p> <p>The not so beautiful way (young, trendy) vs. the beautiful way to wear platform sneakers:</p> <p>[attach=2389/13/ms8yuq.400x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2389/13/ms8yur.600x450.image.jpg]</p> <p>Check our how cute it becomes with a matching handbag and leather swing coat or even an open, leather bomber jacket and a graphic tee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1049116 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:13:53 +0000 birdofafeather 1049116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: side note, i would NEVER guess you're 33. i always thought you were a couple of years younger than me! (i'm 29)</p> <p>@littlek: i'm not in love with them, but they are kinda funky euro-awesome in the same way. if they are comfy and you like them, then rock on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1049054 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:02:00 +0000 pinkcupcake 1049054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think they're kinda cute!

I'm 33 and I think you're only as old as you feel. Those are pretty neutral, and practical according to some of the moms in my meetup group! Go ahead and enjoy the trend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048886 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:23:21 +0000 petunia354 1048886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 28 and have never seen this trend, so you are way more hip than I am!! Go for it girl!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048885 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:23:00 +0000 littlek 1048885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: There's a darker color I was looking at, I think they are backordered though on zappos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048884 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:22:53 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: I also think they will totally *blend* in Europe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048881 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:22:11 +0000 littlek 1048881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Yes, I don't want to spend a ton of money because they are very trendy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048876 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:21:22 +0000 littlek 1048876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sammyfab: I was thinking of skinny jeans and boots but wasn't sure if I would get hot. But I think that is a great option! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048869 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:20:35 +0000 PrincessBaby 1048869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: You can easily pull those off! I agree those are the cutest I've seen of this trend...This is one of those trends that I think is cute in a bit of an ugly way- like aesthetically it's not pleasing but I somehow still find it cute? And as a fellow shorty, I do appreciate the functionality! Are those skechers? It seems like they'd be pretty comfy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048861 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:17:56 +0000 looch 1048861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like the color of them, I feel like they're too light. Maybe if they were in gray? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048856 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:16:48 +0000 Sammyfab 1048856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Personally, I'm not a fan of the shoes and I do feel like they're for a younger crowd or people with a very specific style. I think you've mentioned before that you tend to dress preppy? If that's the case, could you wear skinny jeans and boots instead?</p> <p>I was born and raised in the city that hosts the biggest Oktoberfest celebration in the world outside of Germany...so I totally understand not wanting to track your pants in beer sludge! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048854 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:16:17 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1048854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be 36 in a few weeks, and I consider myself young. If i had to describe my style it would be a mix of classic with a bit of edgy. You can wear these, but it all depends on the rest of the outfit. With some nice basics, it will look good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048853 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:16:16 +0000 MrsH 1048853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They'll be covered - I think they are fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048832 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:10:42 +0000 littlek 1048832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelingnanny: I don't *love them but they are some of the more tamer options I have seen. I'm open to suggestions.. Keep in mind, they will be covered with jeans </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048821 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:09:10 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: Oh, and 34 is not too old to be *young* and *hip*! You certainly qualify for those categories! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048801 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:02:22 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: And I agree regarding those being cuter than other similar options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048797 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 09:01:02 +0000 travelingnanny 1048797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Personally, I think those shoes are ugly. That said, if you love them then wear them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-honestly-am-i-too-old-for-this-trend#post-1048789 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 08:59:18 +0000 MsLipGloss 1048789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all!
