Another 'is this a mum boot?' question

7 replies

Househunter · 18/02/2013 07:30

I've been looking for ankle boots to wear with skinny jeans and they must be comfortable or I'll never wear them. I asked my 2 year old dd whether these were mum boots and she said no, but though the tan ones were. But as she is wearing a bright pink Peppa pig onesie I'm not sure I can trust her opinion.

Any more experienced opinions? Or any suggested alternatives welcome (preferably the dreaded Clarks as I know they will be comfortable)

Thanks.

They wouldn't be my choice but they are ok. I find new look shoes and boys comfortable and decent quality. They also do wide fit if needed

Am Blush.
For some reason I read this as "Is this mum a boot question" and wanted to know if "boot" was some kind of term for a PITA mum. Hey ho.
I like mum boots, as it happens. :)

Mum boots indeed. Step away.

Have a look at Kate Kanzier - www.katekanzier.com/shop/ankle-boots/ (sorry if the link doesn't work, I don't really know what I'm doing!).

There was an article in the Guardian I think about her being designer but affordable... I bought a pair of the betty wedges here when I returned to work because I needed smart but comfy (and I find myself running for a train at least once a day!) and they're genuinely the most comfortable heels I've ever owned...

Thanks for replies. I like the look of the last New Look one linked and a lot if the Kate Kanzier ones but I'm just too chicken to order non Clarks ones after too many experiences with blisters etc. Have ordered these ones as well as a couple of others in the hope that one pair won't look too mumsy on. I may be a lost cause though Smile
