I'm wearing my new LK Bennet knee length black leather boots with 2 1/2 inch heel to work today with knee length skirt and not one comment! Usually I am more of trousers kind of girl so this look is a bit different to me and not one person has commented. I'm not the sort of person who expects comments on my clothes generally but thought today might get someone saying something - after all the boots were very expensive!

Harrumph....

BTW thanks Gingernut for noticing earlier although did feel kind of awkward outside pre-school as most of the other mums were in jeans!

New boots there Tallgirl? They look good. Not often we see you in a skirt either, you really should wear one more often, its very flattering.

Will taht do?

Hey, nice boots!

(know how you feel, nobody mentioned my fab new corduroy culottes this morning, except dp who sort of smirked a bit...)

Tallgirl · 02/11/2005 12:36

Thanks for your kind comments - really I'm flattered. It's not that I'm attention seeking generally but it is nice once in a while. I got more comments yesterday when I was wearing jeans and a top from Sainsburys!!

Some people have no taste!

they're probably just jealous

Blimey! If I'd known about the bra I'd have embarrassed you even more . Are you wearing it today as well? Will check out your silhouette later . BTW, I was a bit disappointed you didn't comment on my new top this morning .
