    I'm 27 and I wear Juniors sizes and women's sizes. If I think it's cute and it fits then I wear it. No big deal.

    Wear whatever looks good and is comfortable! I have a more boyish shape (less difference between my hips and waist circumference) so I feel better and look better in pants that are lower waisted and not cut to fit curvy women, and that means Juniors. I'm 35 :)

    I feel that if you can fit into them then wear them, who cares how old you are? I once saw like a 40 something yr old woman buying clothes from Justice lol

    I think it depends on what is comfortable for you. If you have a really trim lower body they might fit better than women's. I personally have one of those body types that had me in women's sizes by the time I was 12 so more power to ya.

    Hogwash! If you can stlll wear junior-size clothing at 29 I say more power to you. I'm 56 and wear a size 10 which not many women that I know can "rock a size 10--most of them wear size 16 and above, So if you can wear a size 13 I say "you go girl."

    LOL I just turned 30 this week and I wear Juniors clothing...... I think there is a difference in dressing like a 17 year old at my age vs purchasing a few items out of the juniors section because they fit better or I like that particular item. I personally like juniors better because Im tall and their pants tend to be longer and shirts fit better.

    Womens sometimes have an ill fit for me- way too short and wide for my liking lol

    Be nice LOL 40 something is the new 20's. It's all in how you feel. I don't feel like I'm going to be 40, nor do I look the part. When you are 40, I hope that you feel the same way!! Have a super day. :)

    I am 50 and I wear junior sizes. I have no hips and virtually no butt so they are the only clothes that fit me right. Honestly, I do not understand what some peoples obsession is about shopping in either junior or ladies departments, to me it's more about the fit of the clothes and no one sees the size that's inside so what is the big deal. I do understand that some times the clothes in the junior department are geared towards younger people as far as styling but I feel that with a little common sense you can avoid the clothes that make you look silly.

    I have been shopping in the Juniors lately. I am 43 and wear an 11 in jrs, 10 in misses. I just try to be careful not to look like I raided my daughters closet.

    I still shop in the Junior's Dept as well.... the clothes are WAY cuter than in the Women's section. The "mom jeans" are in the women's section...

    39 and I shop Juniors sometimes. I'm a size 2 or 4 in misses jeans, and typically a 7 in juniors.

    If it looks good it shouldn't matter what section it is from!

    Im 21, and I wear not just juniors, but childrens sizes. I wear a size 12 in childrens jeans right now because the stomach area is smaller, and the length is shorter. Also, it tends to be cheaper.

    Wear whatever fits ^^
