Are these shoeboots nice or not?

Sorry ladies - don't know how to make the below into an automatic link:

www.dune.co.uk/catalogue/style.asp?y=A10LSU10COD930M&pc=10&f=1&dac=1

I have high heeled shoe boots that I wear on nights out but was wanting a pair that were lower heeled so I could wear them with dresses during the day without crippling myself and as a change from day flat boots or knee high boots.

But I don't know if the silver buckles make them look dead cheap and tacky or not?

What do you reckon?

TIA :)

Oh Lordy, never mind ladies, think I hate them now! But too late have already ordered them on-line!

Will see what they're like when they arrive but think already they will be returned due to the blooming silver buckles.

Can't see them, copying and pasting your link only brings up the main page.

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the web address (URL) surrounded by and . So type www.mumsnet.com to display a link like www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at this page", would display "Look at this page."

It should be buckles Or laces

Can't you cancel order?

FaffTastic · 28/12/2010 21:50

Too late to cancel order Cybil though am sure I can return them to nearest Dune shop when they arrive and if they look hideous on.

Think you might have hit the nail on the head though about buckles AND laces.

Pain in the backside trying to find a pair of shoeboots for everyday wear where the heel isn't too high or else they aren't to flat and clumpy looking. Huff Sigh.

Ahem you do realise I am the QUEEN of shoe boots?

CybilScissorhands · 28/12/2010 21:52

I will find you a pair

What are specifications

CybilScissorhands · 28/12/2010 21:53

would you consider a wedge?

CybilScissorhands · 28/12/2010 22:02

lots here

FaffTastic · 28/12/2010 22:13

I must have trawled the internet for about 2 hours last night looking for my ideal day pair where the heal wasn't too high. Dont really fancy a wedge.

Loved these but the balck ones aren't in the sale and they don't have the grey in my size:

SoldOut

Also liked these but think the high is too high for daytime as I was wanting ones I could walk in that wouldn't ned up crippling me after 500 yards:

TooHigh

Have loads a few pairs for going out/evening but was wanting soemthing more casual to throw on my feet during the day with dresses.

(Must say, I really liked the Dune ones, but dismissed them as too high!
