“I’d Much Rather Be
Forever In Blue Jeans, Babe”
Neil Diamond
It’s been a hot topic of conversation on the internet the past few weeks about an article which stated that women over 40 should NOT wear blue jeans.
“CRAZY,” I say!
We are the generation who made blue jeans our uniform. “Say what you want, do what you want but you will find me “Forever In Blue Jeans”!
Personally, my closet is full of jeans. I love them and I will not be replacing them.
Today’s outfit is a flashback to my teens. I’m sure I wore an outfit similar to this back in the day. Isn’t it marvelous, how fashion repeats itself?
Recently I found this comfy boyfriend shirt and sneakers at Target. Immediately, it was in my cart! No thoughts of age. Silly, why would age even cross my mind? It’s my style. Always has been and it makes me happy. Besides, it’s perfect for my blue jeans!
I’ve placed links to this outfit below.
Also, you can witness my love of jeans in a holiday post where I have dressed them up for an evening out. (here)
So ladies, what are your thoughts on this topic?
Are you too, forever in your blue jeans?

Now that is a denim-on-denim look done right. Love the light wash of that chambray/denim oversized shirt. Looking great!

Hi there Ada,
Thanks for hosting the linkups. I will definitely be there on Sunday. And thanks again for your kind words.
What in the world??? Women over 40 shouldn’t wear jeans? That is crazy! I think I’ve never looked better in them until now and I’m turning 50 in 3 months.
You look marvelous in your denim on denim and the minute I saw the title of your post I started humming Neil Diamond’s song – I love that song! Yes, Forever in Blue Jeans Babe!!

Hi Kellyann,
Thanks for reading and now I’m sure you’re probably humming. “Forever in Blue Jeans”, it gets stuck in my brain once I say it! One of those funny things with songs.
I agree with this! Blue jeans are the best invention known to fashionistas….or rather people everywhere!

Hi Ruth, I know jeans are a huge part of just about everyone’s wardrobe. Age has nothing to do with it.
Your outfit looks great! Slender jeans continue to be my go-to and nobody has the right to challenge that. Really, who makes up these stupid rules anyway?
I think that sometimes these articles are written just to get a us stirred up😉
Thanks for stopping over at DSS💞
Me too, not giving up my jeans no matter how old I get! Shared on Fb, G+, Pn, and Tw ♥
That’s us …Forever in our Blue Jeans😍
Thanks so much for sharing💞
Who on earth decided women over 40 shouldn’t be wearing blue jeans??? I must have missed that article – not that I would have heeded it in any way whatsoever. Anyway, I can remember wearing double denim looks like this back in the day, so I enjoyed this modern take on a nostalgic look! Thanks for linking up with Fabulous Friday!
