Not sure why, just over the last few days am developing a desire for some.

Not sure if they're in or not but what the heck....anyone seen any nice ones?

You joining A tap dancing troupe?

Pagwatch · 04/03/2013 19:26

Love them. Can't do them as I had them last time they were in. If you did a trend the first time you are too old to do it twice...

I like these

ApplyYourself · 04/03/2013 19:28

Please don't.

Unless you're joining a dance troupe Grin

Those Kurt Geiger ones are beautiful but ideally I could do with some about £60. I'm also worried I'm too old for them now.....

I think they are unspeakably awful...but if they are your heart's desire then go for it. Grin

VivaLeBeaver · 04/03/2013 19:42

I'm having second thoughts now.

I suspect white Dr martens would be even worse wouldn't they? Grin

I have never seen a nice pair of white brogues in my life.......ever!

Seen loads of bloody ugly ones though.

I love them.
I remember going to watch a gorgeous boyfriend play cricket for Surrey one summers day. I was wearing a white long skirt, white top and some brogues. He was unspeakably handsome and brought me champagne and strawberries during tea. Then he drove me back to his in a convertible and produced the biggest penis I have ever seen. It was like a soft porn version of The Great Gatsby. Without the tragedy. Or death.

Sounds amazing. Now I'm going to be disappointed if I get some and that doesn't happen to me Pag.

Viva !

VivaLeBeaver · 04/03/2013 19:55

And I'm never going to be able to look at white brogues again without thinking of you and the cricket playing big penis man!

I think he may have been the origin of the saying 'he carried his bat'. Seriously.

landofsoapandglory · 04/03/2013 20:00

I want these Viva, but I already have 2 pairs of brogues and a pair of nude loafers so I don't think I can sneak them past DH!

Clarks have white patent ones.

Oooooooohhhh Dune had some soft soft pale pink ones. No longer available anywhere. They're my ones who got away. I shall never forget them. I SO wish I'd bought them :(

williaminajetfighter · 04/03/2013 20:08

TOAST usually have some nice ones for summer. Wallet will take a hit but great quality. www.toast.co.uk

VivaLeBeaver · 04/03/2013 20:08

I've already got some white and tan heeled brogues a bit like the ones in Dune but with a heel.

It's flat white ones I'm hankering after, or was.

Size 40 is too big for me but thanks.

The Clarks ones are nice.

I like the Clarks ones too.

Boden has a nice looking pair.
