Right Boots - are we fancying lace-up ones for AW10?

[traceybath]

Like these perhaps?

Am thinking with skinnies or even opaques and denim mini perhaps?

Do you mean really lace up or looks-lace-up-but-has-a-zip?

I like to fold-over, but not sure it would flatter my giant ankles.

Proper lace-up Trills - not liking the fake ones really.

Am pretty sure you don't have fat ankles.

My legs are disproportionately large compared to the rest of me, which is slim. So even if my ankles are not fat fat I don't want to emphasise them.

Yes tracey despite their 'old woman who lived in a shoe' stylings I do like those.

What about those bashed up All saints style ones? Or have they had their day? in other words have Primark started doing them?

Well done on starting a thread btw!

I have my eye on these Bonnie Tyler-esque beauties.

I do like the heel style on those - what is it called?

Tracey did you see these? now half price. Can't remember your size...

Ooh yeh^@Marsha. I don't do ankle boots, but they are nice^. I love Belstaff boots. Sexy.

Marsha - bargaintastic but not my size unfortunately.

I really wanted the indigo colour on NAP.

Bought some lace ups ankle boots from topshop today and love them.

Tried on with leggings and turn-up shorts (look good) and also with skinny jeans stuffed in tops (also very good)

My DH asked why I didn't buy knee high boots I was like ' knee highs? in 2010??!!' FFS!

Tether - oh they are fab. I want them. I don't care if they are a tad witchy poo and I have legs the size of tree trunks. I want them!!!!

tracey I bought some like that last winter and jewels is right - they are so versatile and comfy and I love them loads. Get some!

I bought some from KG last year < preens > but I've never seen them on the website.

They're a bit like the AllSaints ones but with a heel.
DD calls them my 'old lady boots.'

I love lace-up boots though; had some from Clarks three years ago which really were Victorian governess style with cuban heels.

If anyone can identify a good alternative to the indigo Belstaff ones, I would be very interested (where's tethersend )

Aarh - do you know the really annoyhing thing was the indigo belstaffs were massively reduced in the US NAP sale but didn't go in the UK one.

Right off to look at topshop and All saints ones.

Tracey - I didn't know that, but I remember you mentioning something about a sale in relation to them. Let me know what other options you find!

traceybath - oooh I've got those, they came last week, they are gorgeous, lovely old-looking weathered leather. Lace up is the way to go!

Oh goodie 101!

Am hoping lace-ups will solve the problem of most boots being too big on the leg without having to resort to duo's frumpy selection.

Oh my - been waiting for lace up ankle boots to come 'back in' since mid 80's.

I like the Topshop ones but not the colour - and I'd like a proper sturdy heel please
