Old people and trainers

Why? Why why why do old women insist on wearing trainers, and, as I saw one this morning, a baseball cap?? Now I know that I perhaps don't dress for my "age" (what the fuck are nearly 40 year olds s'posed to wear? A-line skirts and wedges....? Well, I do...lol) - admittedly I wear my hair in bunches, but it doesn't seem wrong. Not to me, anyhow. But really - old people and baseball caps? And what possesses them to get a pair of Nike Shox? Is it 'cos in our heads we all still think we're 18? Did trainers and baseball caps exist in this country when they were young? I don't think they existed when I was young! So it's not like they're harking back to their youths... And they can't want to look like a scally, can they? Can they? Surely they have mirrors? I know it sounds harsh, but they'd look so much better in a nice sun hat, and nice shoes - there are shops that do such things....I know it's a matter of choice but I just want to run up to them and do a Trinny and Susannah on them. I'm all for being a funkster, but it looks like they've been dressed by an 8-year old. Rant over.
