OK, I have admitted that the biggest size that <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=swedish+hasbeens+cilla+nature&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=pqi&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1222&bih=665&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=bBFDWUQ_4--JmM:&imgrefurl=www.swedishhasbeens.com/cilla-chelsea-boot-p-61.html&docid=J9m47vsra2sOdM&w=800&h=600&ei=m-t5TvDHMqeb1AWV19WuAQ&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=330&page=1&tbnh=139&tbnw=172&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:7,s:0&tx=63&ty=58" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">these come in is too small for me and I can't have them. Sad

Where oh where to find something similar? I have looked at all department-store websites, Topshop, Schuh, ASOS, Net-a-Porter, La Redoute, all the usual high-street shops. I want:

'Natural' or other pale-ish neutral-ish colour (or tan or that lovely 'gingery' brown, but no darker).
Calf or high-ankle length.
Not lace-up.
Bit of a heel but not much more than the Swedish Hasbeens.

So so grateful if anyone can help!

Have you tried Duo? They are fab!

piprabbit · 21/09/2011 15:03

Probably too dark...

Something like these?

Or this

What size are you looking for?

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 21/09/2011 15:10

Cheeseandbiscuits, have looked at Duo but they're all too high or too low (I know, it's like Goldilocks!)

piprabbit, I like that second pair. Would have to try them on to check length. I think I'm a UK 8 but it seems to vary, or the terminology ? sometimes I'm a 41, sometimes a 42, but Kurt Geiger 41s, for example, are often too big Hmm

Thanks both!

I'm on my iPhone and lying in bed when I'm up I'll do a wee bit of hunting! I need boots too.

These are lovely

So are these

Sanita

Bargain but too dark

Sanita anemone halfway down

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 22/09/2011 14:17

Thanks again everyone! tethers, I've tried on those Kurt Geiger ones and in fact half the shop, and they are all lovely but all a bit short. Love the Sanita ones.
