I think generally I dress ok and look reasonably stylish when I can be bothered to
But I can't make ankle boots look right on me. I bought some lovely tan/brownish chelsea boots and have literally not worn them once because after looking at myself in the mirror I just take them off again.
I've tried them with skinny jeans that are really tight around my ankles; I've tried them with slightly looser ones turned up a bit - both ways I look like a golf club doing an impression of Max Whall. I've tried them with boyfriend jeans rolled up a bit and I just looked like a Dexy's Midnight Runners extra. What am I doing wrong?
I've read all the style blogs - most of which talk about the Chelsea Boot being the boot that suits everybody - everybody except me that is .
I'm tall (5ft 10, size 12) and reasonably fit - my legs are fine until I put boots on it seems! Is it just me? This small and probably insignificant problem is driving me nuts!
