agreed

it's the pointyness of the toes - it's just not right

Stiglet · 03/10/2006 11:29

I agree - same goes for cowboy hats

hermykne · 03/10/2006 11:30

i have two pair - one with very very very rip van winckle toe and one gaqrden variety rope a cow boot.

not only am i frequently complimented on both pairs but for those of us inable to wear a heel - especially on a boot - they are ideal as the heel is not too high and is blocky so we dont fall over.

btw - i have just bought a fairly ordinary boot for this winter - and not had a comment yet becuase its so easy to be ordinary dont you find?

nailpolish · 03/10/2006 12:22

suggestions?

which madonna would you go as

TutterIckOrTreat · 03/10/2006 12:25

cowgirl madonna - definitely. lots of shirts like that in the shops now. blow dried hair and comboy hat.

dh suggested leotard madonna

mates going as goth madonna, pointy titted madonna, material girl madonna (ie marilyn monroe) and desperately seeking susan madonna (which i wanted, but ive been delegated cowgirl madonna)

southeastastralplain · 03/10/2006 13:07

they're ok! what about on men

FIMBOnABroomstick · 03/10/2006 13:10

One of the mothers at playgroup has a pink pair

nailpolish · 03/10/2006 13:11

fimbo, you obviously live in style central

NomDePlume · 03/10/2006 13:12

I'd want to go as fingerless gloves 'Like A Prayer' Madge, I think.

NomDePlume · 03/10/2006 13:13

BTW - also hate cowboy boots. I don't like those 'work boots' ones either. Too butch imo.

nailpolish · 03/10/2006 13:13

my fave is Borderline madonna, but someone pinched that

pesme · 03/10/2006 13:14

daisy duke looked pretty good in them!

FIMBOnABroomstick · 03/10/2006 13:15

What about Holiday Madonna a la LiveAid? Don't you already have footless tights? Very 80's throwback.

crunchie · 03/10/2006 22:15

Nailpolish I HAVE A PALE PINK PAIR AND a gold pair

I wore the gold pair at teh weekend and I LOVE them. I don't care if they are in or out they are simply the BEST IMHO

I will continue to wear them, but then I do LOVE kitsch, I also have red sequined dorothey shoes

What about these

crunchie · 03/10/2006 22:17

these are a copy of my favourite shows

nailpolish · 04/10/2006 07:48

crunchie the boots are hideous cheap looking

but i love the shoes

do they come in a size 3?

i NEVER imagined you to wear shoes like that !

NOMurDErousPLUME · 04/10/2006 09:34

They sell sequin Dorothy shoes in Office. Or they did last season.

crunchie · 04/10/2006 20:21

NP what did you imagine me to wear??

I bought the shoes form Kurt Geiger last season, but those ebay ones are good copies. I don't know about size 3, you would have to search ebay

codMorgan · 04/10/2006 20:22
