I really like these boots for work. Adore shoes/boots that lace up in some way.

These for pottering about at home with toddler in leggings, dress, cardi combo.

(weeps quietly in the corner as she contemplates wearing last year's boots)

cyb · 16/08/2010 13:20

oh dead don't worry, I'm wearing last years Fryes as my brown flat boot option.

I have biker boots from waaaay back that I will be wearing too. Fancied a lil' pair of cuban heeled black ankle boots .

Have grey shoe boots from BHS of all places last year.

So actually, boot wise I'm sorted. Still fun looking (and laughing) though

cyb · 16/08/2010 13:21

Nodders, LOVE those first black ones you linked to.

noddyholder · 16/08/2010 13:24

I want a wrappy type wool coat belted no buttons navy blue

cyb · 16/08/2010 13:28

oh yes that sounds nice. But i'm just about to put my bikini top on and read in the garden so can't think about coats today

noddyholder · 16/08/2010 13:30

Grin really? hope you are putting cream on or will be crepey chest

cyb · 16/08/2010 13:30

isthatporridgeinyourhair · 16/08/2010 13:46

How lovely Cyb Envy. It's like the freaking arctic here.

I'm going back to work in September and am considering [[www.asos.com/countryid/1/Asos/Asos-Tiger-Suede-Kitten-Heel-Shoeboot/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1071558&MID=35718&affid=2134&siteID=0RpXOIXA500-OBKVN6InZ0Hoq07g65kqqQ these for wearing with slim trousers and skirts). Too low?

isthatporridgeinyourhair · 16/08/2010 13:50

Ooh that didn't work. Try again here

WhatsWrongWithYou · 16/08/2010 14:14

Timberland anyone?

cyb · 16/08/2010 15:25

Hi porridge!

I'm not convinced about the whole kitten heel thing tbh. I think I'm too 'big ' to wear them. I imagine them on teensy people. Are you teensy?

I ahve had to come in from garden. Am getting TOO HOT

QueuePosition3 · 16/08/2010 15:33

AGREE WTH kitten heel theory.
i want fryes too - although think might be flappy of calf
my BEST buy last year were black cowboys from new look
girls at school luffed em and i wore em a lot with skirts

QueuePosition3 · 16/08/2010 15:34

those one witht eh double buttons on nod i tried on last year
too gapey again

cyb · 16/08/2010 15:34

Ah, Fryes CAN be slim on leg. Mine are and you know what twigs I've got (altho I recall you beat me in a tape measure-off)

QueuePosition3 · 16/08/2010 15:35

QueuePosition3 · 16/08/2010 15:36

..thast why am interested in ( spit) boden elasticated ones i linked to - pph had similar from russell and b and were v flattering

QueuePosition3 · 16/08/2010 15:36

noddyholder · 16/08/2010 15:37

I have had fryes before campus weren't flappy iirc we all had them at work years ago and I gave mine to charity shop in a stressy house move Shock!

cyb · 16/08/2010 15:37

Mine were still £120. Love them though

Are you in pub ALONE

cyb · 16/08/2010 15:38

noddyholder · 16/08/2010 15:39

cyb · 16/08/2010 15:40
