Andrea Corr's boots

45 replies

I saw Andrea Corr at the Radio 2 Hyde park thing yesterday on TV and I absolutely loved her boots, they were black, slightly over the knee and flat. Anyone any idea where you can get boots like that?

Ta in advance

(I would link but I'm not sure if there are any photos on the R2 website and I'd probably cock it up anyway ).

Thanks Neal, I probably couldn't afford the sort of boots that Andrea Corr can afford but I can still dream...

Quite like her top as well but black makes me look a bit corpse-like.

Wait............The Corrs have re-formed?

Sad Sad Sad

As for the boots I think they may be Jimmy Choo.

squoosh · 14/09/2015 13:53

Maybe not actually. She's a bit of a short arse so maybe they're just knee high boots.

Oh my god (faints at the price - perhaps I could ask for them for my next 5 birthdays and christmases) but they are gorgeous. If I owned a pair of Jimmy Choos I'd be too scared to wear them and get them scuffed. Thanks squoosh.

P.s. apparently they're making a new album.

Ha ha, Tbf I'm also a bit of a short arse and knee highs never go over my knees. I reckon they must be softer leather so you can still bend your knees ok.

They look like Stuart weitzman 5050s to me.

These

Wow the coors! They were shit weren't they?

squoosh · 14/09/2015 16:18

They were indeed! And I suspect still are Grin

whatdoIget · 14/09/2015 16:37

In a way it's good to remember them because quite often hearing music of that era makes me yearn to be young again. The corrs don't have that effect on me Smile

mrsrhodgilbert · 14/09/2015 16:40

Ah, I used to like them but it sounded like she was struggling yesterday.

whatdoIget · 14/09/2015 16:41

Ah well at least her boots were nice

mrslebon · 14/09/2015 16:53

Next have a much cheaper copy of those boots. They were too baggy around the ankles for me though, although overall they were pretty good.

Christ do these women not age at all? Do they drink magic water or something?

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 14/09/2015 17:23

You're all so mean! Grin I was there and I thought they were great.

They do all look a bit... plasticky though. ----

There are loads of black suede flat OTK boots around this A/W.

mrsrhodgilbert · 14/09/2015 17:33

They don't look to have aged, despite saving numerous children between them now. She did sound better when I found the tv coverage, maybe just wasn't coming over too well on the radio.

Have a look on the Dune website. I really wanted some from Russell & Bromley but couldn't afford them (nearly called it Holland and Barret then! Blush but the dune ones are nice, got them last season but they have them in again.

UrbaneFox · 14/09/2015 17:48

I liked the corrs. those boots look very ordinary! hard to imagine somebody saying 'oh, those boots, i must have those boots!'

Queenbean · 14/09/2015 17:50

Funny how Andrea was always the fittest one and now the other two look incredible

I love the coors and I'm not ashamed to say it!

squoosh · 14/09/2015 17:51

There must be standards!

And standards dictate that Corrs fans (!) should be shunned by decent society.

I like plain boots (though I suspect that OTK boots would be considered a bit kinky in rural Shropshire on the school run). Thanks for the (cheaper) suggestions. Why have I never noticed OTK boots before or are they more popular this year?

I wasn't a great Corrs fan but I have got a soft spot for 'Only when I sleep'.
