SD I second the Converse BB boots am a fan . Those yellow ones are fab.

spacedonkey · 11/01/2006 11:33

I guess bb boots would be a pain when pregnant though

Enid · 11/01/2006 11:34

yy

I do like them but too much hassle

these would look silly wouldnt they?

I don't think they'd look silly, I'm a fan of a good old plimsoll

But those yellow ones are gorgeous

Enid · 11/01/2006 11:39

I love the yellow ones

but maybe the black with yellow stripes would be more wearable? or like football boots?

OP posts:
meggmoo · 11/01/2006 11:39

love 'em. In brown they are very funky.

spacedonkey · 11/01/2006 11:40

drool - I like them both, but I see what you mean about football boots. Prefer the yellow with black stripe - I think bright trainers look great with jeans

And I think personally I prefer the yellow trainers I bet they look great with jeans.

spacedonkey · 11/01/2006 11:42

very Kill Bill aren't they? (in a good way)

Enid · 11/01/2006 11:42

yes I like the yellow now

I am limited in clothes now but my uniform atm is jeans, burberry navy peacoat, big scarf - the yellow ones would be great, shame the stripes are black not navy

nope, definitely not a clown with size 7 and 5 foot 9. I'm size 8 and 5 foot 9 and I'd wear em, clown feet or not, they're fabulous.

Enid · 11/01/2006 11:46

I didn't know you were lockets

so thats why you have been agreeing with me

I like stinkweasel

ah but sw I might be a couple of inches taller, but my legs are like sticks, resulting in a "canoe" effect when I wear flat shoes
