Cybil's 2010 Boot thread. You can stop pestering me now

[cybilliberty]

Ok I'm going to start with these, seen from a distance in London but I actually quite like them

Come on Corny, Su et all

ANY ONE INTERESTED IN BOOTS

ill have em
size 6

Honestly they are hardly cold and you're jumping in them already

i know you speak the truth but its still hard..............

You could wear those with a black knitted dress and tights aswell.Also slouchy tweed trousers I like them.get a pair of skinny black cords from american apparel like a corset!I am busty but wear skinnies

So what is best boot length to wear if you're a shortie (5ft not much)? Legs not in too bad a state but calves could never be described as skinny. To go with skinnies or short skirts/tights...

Meg - I think mid-calf generally.

Or if knee-high - they need to finish a good inch or so under your knee or its just too principal-boy.

But I'm not a fan of heeled knee-highs with skinnies tucked in any more - its a bit liz macdonald

What about these. Anyone seen anything similar but less overbaked?

I like the basic shape but am not sure about sooo many buckles. Also when I see furry lined boots, I just can't shake the image of Pat Butcher...

Oh brilliant - a boots thread!

What does anyone think of these KG boots

Saw them today in HoF and quite fancy them (didn't try on). What would you wear them with - skinnies tucked in/leggings/suitable/casual skirt and tights?

Any views? Thx

Millie I like those. £££ though! I would wear with anyhting really, would look nice with tights and sloppy jumper dress

Yep, I know they would be 'an investment'! I'd one of those window-shopping days today (rare in my life!) where I just spotted on expensive thing after another ... now I've come back to home and reality just to drool and dream ! Re the boots - told myself they'd 'only' be around £40 more exp than a Duo pair

Perhaps these instead. Don't really like the scuffing though.

like Millie's- they look cosy. Also like Cain's. Defo want kinky Nancy boots now.

I don't like the lacesxones with a heel.
Like millies but agree £££

I like Millies and you're right they are only a bit more than a duo pair.

Millies are my favourite so far too but really don't want to spend that much (though there is a KG shop near me so may take a look anyway)

Meg B. i am 5ft3 and have normal-sized legs but calf-length look dreadful on me - just accentuate my slightly baby-shaped legs!.Over the knee ones are really flattering.I bought a pair of 'truffle' colour ones from Duo in the sale and have worn them with everything.I like Duo as the boots fit well and are mainly classic designs[i am not a fan of biker boots anyway].However i do think they are expensive so only buy in the sale.The worse shape for me are any boots that do not go right up to my knees.The high knee/rather than calf-length work better tbw.

Can anyone here think of a brand of shoes sold in Germany that starts with the letter T?

I tried on a pair of blue ankle boots that were fabulous now I cant remember the name of it.

It was quite a long word. Something Tiss etc???

Queue once you have heeled with laces on you change your mind!They give all your old clothes a different look and most look good with skinny legs and tights so I would have thought you'd like them

I've been dreaming about them - doesn't bode well for the bank account! Next step ... start another thread re dresses/tunics; then get myself back to HoF!

Oh, and inbetween times go through all the links above to look for a pair of heeled ankle boots to wear with too-long-for-flats, jeans.

Nod I have some suede brogue a like heels from ages ago. Will tru

Bought these today for work in grey. Am breaking myself back into high heels gently after mat leave.

porridge those are nice in grey. A little Miss Whiplash!

HowsTheSerenity - Tamaris maybe?

I bought these last year, took the laces out and they are very comfortable but are they still ok and what would I wear them with?

I love those urban outfitter boots but I have horribly wide feet

tights dresses,I woudl say. I think the jeans tucked into long boots has had its day
