are they silver and shiny or white and mottley? Confused

Either way, nice isn't the right word.

sorry, not doing it for me either.

Thehusbandsatcricketagain · 31/07/2011 21:01

I am older but still wear hippie stuff but my days of wearing spangly boots is over & don't worry bout the extra Llbs if you just gave birth,god that's totally normal.If you like the boots then go for them & don't listen to anyone else,they are your feet :o

oh no. I hope not shiny. I actually preferred these, but they don't have my size.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/07/2011 21:02

Good God, no....Unless you are Robert Smith. Sorry but they are Really Not Very Nice At All. Right? :)

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/07/2011 21:03

Dragon - I admired those ones in town the other day and dd1 was horrified.

Ooooh, nevergoogle love the Kurt Geigers. Not the same price though. Probably a little bit more mature...

OK Remus Love Robert Smith. He still looks cool.

I have them in tan leather. Best pair of shoes I own, and bloody should be too at that price.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/07/2011 21:11

See, I love RS too but there's no way I think he still looks cool. He actually looks worse even than the Great Moz does now and that is saying something.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/07/2011 21:12

Why did I call you Dragon I wonder? Have you changed your name or am I being v stupid? Confused...

nevergoogle · 31/07/2011 21:13

it's me, nevergoogledragonbutter.

Totally disagree Remus. Moz doesn't look cool anymore, it's the tight shirts over his paunch. Bob still has it. He could lay off the lipstick though...

See nevergoogle, I checked straight away if they had it in brown but they're sold out. Gold or silver won't do it for me.

nevergoogle · 31/07/2011 21:20

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/07/2011 21:20

Moz deffo not cool now but RS looks (whispers) grubby.

I love these nevergoogle. Are they hard-wearing?

OP posts:
nevergoogle · 01/08/2011 17:46

well, they're leather, but i admit to being a bit precious about them because of the price. super comfy though.

Karbea · 01/08/2011 17:52

Not for 38 year old, teenagers shoes I'm afraid.

ivykaty44 · 01/08/2011 17:54

in 1980 they might have been trendy - they are not now
