Brown or black boots?

Hi,

Im on a budget (as usual) but need more boots as this winter I was a good girl and didn't look until now they in sales.

Have ordered these from Asos:

www.asos.com/ASOS/ASOS-ASTERIX-Leather-Biker-Boots/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2776444&WT.ac=rec_viewed

and bought these at Matalan which I can easily return within the next week or two:

www.matalan.co.uk/product/detail/s2534350/leather-knee-high-boot

Ive got a fairly casual office and I could wear them to work but i wear mainly black or grey dress/ skirts to work.

At home, I wear black denim the odd time but favour dark blue jeans and have a dark grey denim above knee but not mini skirt i wear all the time. Tops and cardigans are all grey or blue or navy.

Which do you think are the best for both work and casual?

Im on a tight budget, so the prices of these boots are what id like to stick at.

Thanks readers!

I think the brown ones are gorgeous. I like the black ones but would only wear them with jeans or leggings.

Brown ones, definitely!

Definitely brown! You can use brown with almost any colour even though it doesn't seem like you could.

The brown ones are very glossy and deep chestnut brown all over in real life. Much nicer than in link.

Worried brown is limiting and see tonnes of pics of celebs (not that I really care) of celebs in black biker style boots.

Thanks for your comments so far.

I own the brown ones and love them Grin

I've worn them quite a bit lately though and my only complaint is that they have started to slouch and don't look as good any more.

You would prob take better care of them than me though!

I would for black with your wardrobe. I think they would go much better than brown. I prefer the style of the brown boots to the black ones linked though.

What colours do brown boots look best with?

I wear mine with blue jeans. They loo ok with black skinnies but not as good as black boots would.
