Is Reese Witherspoon too old to wear a short leather skirt?

Reese Witherspoon recently stepped out wearing a short flared leather skirt with a fitted black turtleneck top and black leather ankle boots. Apparently according to some of the people who left their opinions on the blogs that featured the pictures Reese is too old for the skirt she wore.

Reese was born is 37 years old as of this posting. So according to the commenters if you are 37 years old you are too old to be wearing short flared leather skirts.

Frankly people need to give it a rest with trying to dictate to people what they should and should not be wearing based on their age.

If Reese had on a dress that’s obviously been made for a 10 year old then fine. I’ll even grant that the critcism is warranted if women who are not Juniors are buying clothing specifically designed for Juniors making the excuse that they can’t find anything in their size in the Misses section; but if a 37 year old woman wants to wear a short flared leather skirt I can’t see what’s so wrong with that.

Looking at Reese and ignoring the fact that she looks perfectly fine and insisting she’s too old to be wearing a skirt like that just because you have bought into this idea is knuckle-brained. Can you sensibly and intelligently explain exactly what is wrong with the way she looks and why the skirt is not so-called “age appropriate”?

In case you like Reese’s look” here are some pieces that you can put together to achieve a similar look.
