Liked them first time round!

themoon66 · 06/11/2006 13:56

Bloody gorgeous IMO. Only wish I could wear heels like that without breaking an ankle.

Me too foxtrot - except even in 1986 I detested bows on shoes...

I do like the style though, and the way of wearing them you suggest. But not the bow.

CatBert · 06/11/2006 13:58

Oops - forgot to change Nov5 name...

MascaraOHaraIncredibleSheHulk · 06/11/2006 13:58

I don't like anything about them. Although I have to add that I just don't like that style of shoe/boot

lorina · 06/11/2006 13:58

get the red ones they are lovey to wear with jeans

nailpolish · 06/11/2006 13:59

Not for me personally. Primark have some similar ones at the moment.

nailpolish · 06/11/2006 14:03

oh are they cheaper fimbo than dp's?

dundee has a new primark i might force myslef to go in

I saw them yesterday - I can't remember the price but I wouldn't have thought they would be much more than about £15 as most of their boots seemed to be around that price - they were flying off the shelves though.

lucycat · 06/11/2006 14:11

oh yes Manchester Primark had them last Thurs. they were £15, as Fimbo says they were going fast.

No,in 1986 I was into my Docs in a big way. - deffo not a bows girl then, not really now either but hey ho.

themaskedposter · 06/11/2006 14:11

I would say with jeans ... not a dress
and a nice taylored jacket too
lovely

Skribble · 06/11/2006 14:12

yuck but then I feel the same way about skinny jeans and knitted dresses .

Gobbledispook · 06/11/2006 14:13
