i would why not? if youre a bit stumpy though i'd wear with black tights to make legs look longer

jinglinggoblin · 06/12/2005 19:33

am 5'9 and always wear black tights anyway cos my legs are so blindingly white! i dont know why, i just have it in my head that calf boots dont go with skirts but i really like these

i have been wearing mine over the last week, they are over 10years old, battered about, and have scribble on them and signatures (my friends wanted to sign my boots with tipex at the end of the school year lol), but so comfty. i will never part with them. well maybe i will when the soles fall off or soemthing.

yes

Not linked to your original question but just had to sing DMs praises too -have got 2 pairs of the most comfortable sandals ever , looking at the website I see 1 pair is not produced anymore which is a shame as I've worn them solidly for about 5 summers so could do with replacing!

LOVE the pink ones. Yes the black ones would look fine with skirts imho. Does anybody know any high street shoe shops that stock DMs? Also can you still get them in children's sizes and if so, does anybody know where please?

hmmm, so thats one dont do it, one go for it and one why not. my mum has offered to buy some for xmas so i might, they are rather lovely.

i dont know any nationwide shops that stock them im afraid, we have a shop near us called briggs which has lots but didnt have these in my size
