Those in the know, what are going to be 'the' boots this winter?

[Thurlow]

What flat ankle boots are we going to be wearing this winter, especially with skirts and dresses?

[ShiroiKoibito]

i dont know, so am following, as just ordered a couple of the boden ruched skirts

[Thurlow]

Me too

[HelenaJustina]

Ooooh have been wondering this myself. What am I going to wear with dresses/skirts for work?

[olderthanyouthink]

Apparently over the knee/thigh high boots, according to the guardian

[Polkadot1974]

Over the knee? Hope not. I'm so short I would look like I'm in panto
Someone linked to some mushroom boots the other week. They were lush

[Hopefully]

Thigh high or Chelsea boots with a slight western heel rather than the traditional sole seems to be the order of the day.

[Hopefully]

I've embraced the thigh high, but my Chelsea boots will remain firmly riding-boot-soled .

[Thurlow]

Another shortie so over the knee is definitely not happening here either! I do normally like in biker boots but not sure if they're right this year?

[mumsnit]

There's loads of suede around this year. I've just bought my first suede boots in years - wonder how long it'll take for me to trash them!

[ShiroiKoibito]

what about these?
I got them in the US in holiday, they're 'Steve Madden ' whoever he is

[Sendraboots]

yes thigh high is in. very dick whittington

[Pisssssedofff]

Steve Madden - wolf of Wall Street fame - big shoe designer in USA

[toffeeboffin]

Dick Whittington

[AmberNectarine]

Thigh high, sock boots with a chunky heel, flattish pixie type boots and biker boots seem to be en vogue.

[PatMullins]

Schteve Madnnn?

[WhooooAmI24601]

I can't say Steve Madden without pretending to be that sturdy lad playing snooker who throws his shoe about whilst off his tits on quaaludes.

I'm going for thigh-highs this year. I'm 5'8" with long, decent legs so hope to pull it off. The DCs will probably instruct me not to wear them if I look too ridiculous.

[ShiroiKoibito]

I haven't seen it, but I only paid £19?? for them and I like them

might have to watch it now

[gingerbreadmanm]

i think leathwr amkle boots with a sock top. i saw some on river island and imagine they will look nice. pretty cool for a change. also alternative heels e.g. heels at an angle.

[prettywhiteguitar]

Love love Steve Madden shoes, I have some lovely sky high wedges that are really comfy ! Wolf of wall st is an awesome film

There seems to be a lot of this kind of thing about if what I saw in the shops today is anything to go by - NOT my cup of tea, but quite striking...

Over the knee is so not going to be happening here either.

[RunnyRattata]

Love those boots but they're way out of my price range and not going to work on a rather dumpy fifty something

[PacificDogwod]

The ones I linked to, Runny?

There are far cheaper versions about too - hang on a mo'...
