I'm after two new winter items, neither of which I've had any success with before. Firstly I'm after a warm winter coat that ideally would be just above the knee or a 'long' jacket. Am open to suggestion and have looked in the all the usuals, even the 'tall' ranges in most high street shops are not long enough for me. Secondly I would love love a pair of nice leather (black or even brown) long boots, to wear over skinnies etc, but I have silly skinny calves and most look like wellies. For obvious reasons I'd rather not having anything resembling a big heel. I challenge you to help with one or both of these....

What about Duo for boots - they do made to measure calf fittings.

I can't help with the coat but I too have very skinny calves and recently bought a lovely pair of boots from Jones the Bootmaker.
