...SLIPPER BOOTS, please!

I don't want:
pompoms
glitter
tassles
ribbons
toggles
UGG style
pink or any other bright colour
to look like I'm 12

I want something warm, understated, plain but stylish, maybe Scandinavian-style.

Please help me and my frozen toes

Not my type of thing but vaguely Scandinavian and you can always lose the pompom

PCPlum - that's exactly the sort of thing. This is going to sound daft, but a friend of mine has those exact ones and she gets all funny about people 'copying' her, so I don't think I can get them (we had a daft falling out in the summer about exactly that sort of thing and I'm treading on eggshells a bit).

Does anyone know of anything similar but not the same??

Both those last too are a little too granny-ish, IYSWIM.

Sorry, I'm sounding like a right old fusspot! I've seen some online but they only seem to be in America - quite like this sort of thing but can't seem to find them in the UK. I even like these!

Maybe I'm after slipper socks rather than slipper boots...

Yeah, I know what you mean PCPlum - I couldn't believe it when that happened. I felt like I was back at school

same as pcplums link but in a different colour here I'm on my second pair and they are the best thing. They don't have proper soles so you feel like you're wearing bare feet.

Surely she won't mind if you're wearing them indoors? maybe you could hide them when she comes round

these are nice?

Oh, she would mind! But you're right, I could always hide them. Just writing that seems so ridiculous, but I haven't seen anything else I like more.

Hmm, will have a think. I did vow to tell her how daft she was being if she ever brought it up again...
