I quite a fancy a pair of these.

I'm 28, long time DM wearer, but usually stick to the normal lace-up boots, haven't ventured to their other styles.

I have SHOCKING yet comfortable taste in clothes and footwear (I live in jeans and tunics, Converse and DMs) so whilst I think these boots are great, the rest of the world could be laughing at me.

I wouldn't wear them as they don't suit my style, but I do like them. DM's are always a good investment. I have some 22 hole black ones that have lasted me years.

ThePigOnTheWall · 21/07/2012 07:54

Hmm. I don't know what to suggest if they are your style Sad

I am tempted to say that there should be an upper age limit on the purchase of any DMs. I haven't worn any since I was 21. But then of you're going to be a student it might be ok

Still think they're vile though. Sorry Sad

MonaLotte · 21/07/2012 07:57

I like them so hell yes!

Not my taste at all- blurgh! If you like em OP get them, it wouldn't do if we all liked the same stuff would it Wink

Elemental · 21/07/2012 08:50

Love them! Have recently bought the same in black for £44 from an Amazon sale and am very happy with them. Now I want that purple too....

DontmindifIdo · 21/07/2012 08:53

I like them, but I wouldn't buy purple, think they are rather lovely in brown. God damn it I can't afford and don't need another pair of flat boots...

BelleDameSansMerci · 21/07/2012 08:59

Absolutely not my thing but sound like they are yours... Buy them!

UnnamedFemaleProtagonist · 21/07/2012 08:59

I quite like them. They aren't my style but if you can rock them then good for you. I'd prefer to see them with little dresses or shorts rather than jeans.

daisyrain · 21/07/2012 09:10

Love them,

I would wear them with black tights, floral dress & cardigan.

DinahMoHum · 21/07/2012 09:11

yes

omletta · 21/07/2012 09:12

Hell no - geography teacher meets Dr M

Chandon · 21/07/2012 09:23

Well they are great if you want to stick up two fingers to looking pretty.

But I am sure you donot want to look pretty, and why should you?

I cannot say they are lovely! But I have a much more boring style myself, so that is probably a good thing....from your POV

dexter73 · 21/07/2012 10:07

Yes from me. I love purple.

clayfeet · 21/07/2012 10:15

Passive aggressive much Chandon

Dawndonna · 21/07/2012 10:57

They're gorgeous, I think I may have to have a pair.

Geordieminx · 21/07/2012 11:00

(((((shudder))))) NO!!!!!

cocolepew · 21/07/2012 11:06

Yes. I like the brown but I have a feeling I tried them on a couple of years ago and they weren't very comfy. I bought Fly boots instead.

"looking pretty" WTF?

EnglishGirlApproximately · 21/07/2012 11:09

Love them - now where's my credit card??? Grin

pictish · 21/07/2012 11:12

I've got those but in black. They are absolutely brilliant - I lob=ve the purple colour and it is a big HELL YES from me!

pictish · 21/07/2012 11:13
