Agreed! Boots or flip flops are all I wear really!

Nope, I'm with you. I have 11 pairs of boots and 2 pairs of shoes. The only thing I don't like about summer is that my feet get too hot in boots.

I don't suit shoes!!!

Spot on , a nice sleek leg line all the way down-whoosh.Also among loads of other reasons for their superiodness is their ability to balance yer tits out-they sort of create a nice heavy ,solid base so you don't look as if your going to topple over.

I used to wear shoes when I worked, ballet pumps. Apart from that I am lost when it comes to shoes. I find this time of year really hard, getting too sunny for boots but too cold for flippies!

yy zulinka I am 6ft tall with massive tits. I just look weird in shoes!

I don't ever wear proper shoes.

I have various pairs of boots for the winter.

In the summer I wear flip-flops for casual wear and high sandals for dressing up (often wedges).

I have a pair of Converse that I occasionally wear with jeans and that's it.

Blimey I,m 46 and going on daytime dates and also have an hourglass shape(size 6).
I was also trying to decide between my denim skirt/cashmere jumper or jumper dress both worn with black or brown(depending on outfit choosen) boots and tights.
Bodens smart biker jacket is fine with skirt combo but what about the sort of coat/jacket with the the jumper dress.Pictures would really help(my fashion imagination doesn't seem as good as some of the folks here)-thanks.

crikey i,ve posted my last message to the wrong thread !
Is there anyway I can sling this on the right thread without all that bloody typing again !!!!!!!

I can't say it's a 'like' thing as such but I have spina bifida, two very differently sized feet and have foot drop for which I sometimes need an ankle-foot orthosis so all I can do is boots. I have come to love them.
