Do you think I'll look like a c u next Tuesday if I buy them?

Really? They look awful to me.

noddyholder · 07/11/2014 18:52

I know someone with a pair and she always wears things I like but I can't take to those.

MrsCakesPrecognition · 07/11/2014 18:54

This page has lots of pictures of women wearing them...they still look daft.

Giddypants · 07/11/2014 18:58

these are much more reasonable!

hydeparkhottie · 07/11/2014 19:00

I love them. If I was skinny, I would wear them.

TheGirlwiththeShittyTattoo · 07/11/2014 19:01

There are so many things I don't like about those boots my finger will have worn away by the time I'm half way through listing them

Bunbaker · 07/11/2014 19:02

Sorry, I think they are the most hideous boots I have ever seen. They just make legs look like elephants legs.

They are even uglier than Uggs.

slug · 07/11/2014 19:02

I tried a pair of those on Giddypants. The looked fantastic but hurt something chronic

MyGhostIsFlummoxed · 07/11/2014 19:02

I can't see the very first link but the second boots are fucking hideous & anyone wearing them definitely has more money than sense (obviously I'm a fashion guru Grin)

Seriously, do people spend thousands on them?

thenightsky · 07/11/2014 19:09

Style with leather leggings and a billowing silk shirt - the contrast in volume will make a real impact

You'd look a right twat in my small North Lincolnshire village. I'm not sure if that's what they mean by 'real impact' though. Grin

Ledkr · 07/11/2014 19:09

They are flared boots aren't they, like flared jeans.
I'd wear ugly uggs over those things any time.
I just adore ugly fashion, amuses me greatly.

Would they be good for people with cankles?

PacificDogwood · 07/11/2014 19:43

I can see how they look really fashionable and 'now' right now, but yes, they scream 'fashion-victim' to me: I will wear anything to prove I'm with it Grin

I agree they'll always look better on some young, long-legged, slim thing stepping out in a cosmopolitan area rather than on stumpy, middle-aged, living-in-the-sticks-me, but I am not bitter much Grin

Bunbaker · 07/11/2014 19:46

And they will be so "last year" next year.

I'm glad I'm not a fashion victim fashionista.

Lunaballoon · 07/11/2014 19:49

Oh, good God! Shock

MistyMistletoe · 07/11/2014 19:50

Why not just wear your trousers/jeans over the top of a normal boot. This would give the same outline.

mum9876 · 07/11/2014 20:10

They are truly awful.

Now I've clicked on them though, they're going to pop up at all times of the day, wherever I go, on my screen to haunt me.

Ledkr · 07/11/2014 20:24

We should arrange a meet up and all wear them!!
The ones in my first link look like dougal from the magic roundabout (shows age)

alemci · 07/11/2014 22:00

all hideous and the first ones look like they are long haired. those bulgy black ones, wouldn't you trip over your feet

peasandlove · 07/11/2014 23:16

I like the givenchy ones

burnishedsilver · 08/11/2014 00:31

Its like the bottom half leather bootleg trousers stuck to a boot. The look soooo try hard.

KikitheKitKat · 08/11/2014 08:35

If Per Una made boots they'd be like those first ones!

WitchWay · 08/11/2014 09:49

Horrible. Your feet would look like the cavemen from Wacky Races.

LeoandBoosmum · 08/11/2014 16:36

Good Lord, if I had that kind of money to splash around it wouldn't be on any of those boots - they are seriously amongst the most hideous I've ever seen (no offence!)
