One of my Christmas presents was the above ! I absolutely love them but need suggestions for what outfits to wear with them please ?

And they’re plain black leather

Oooh! I'd team these with a short kilt or denim skirt and black opaque tights. Very cool!

Fairylea · 26/12/2017 17:51

Anything really! Skinny jeans, black leggings, dresses (tartan short jumper dresses work really well!)

MockneyReject · 26/12/2017 18:20

Yes, jumper dress, shirt dress, t-shirt dress.

Over Xmas, I wore mine with a checked shirt dress, thick, plain tights and my new favourite item, a navy wool coat.

I think they look good with shorts, cut offs and smarter wool ones, and a shorter jacket. I've gone off short denim skirts (on me) a bit, but I second the kilt suggestion.

I don't feel quite right wearing mine with jeans, but mine are 20 holes, so that might be why.

Do yours have zips, OP? I'd wear mine a bit more if they did!

I go 90s grunge in skinny jeans, checked shirt.

HorseItIntoMe · 26/12/2017 23:19

Yes they have zips!

Thanks for the suggestions Flowers

Suits you!
Because I'm not, I always see more petite women carrying off looks I can't.

I reckon you should post a daily photo of whatever you're wearing with them, OP.

Adarajames · 30/12/2017 14:45

Nope, don't think they suit you, will suit me far better so reckon you should post them to me! Grin Wink

HorseItIntoMe · 30/12/2017 16:28

Awww really Adara 😔 ok thanks for your honesty, just pm your address and I’ll post them off immediately

They are gorgeous OP - I'm so tempted but as I'm nearly 50 and overweight they remain a pipe dream

TheHeraldOfAndraste · 30/12/2017 17:36

They look fantastic on you Horse. So tempted to buy some in the DM sale but I have way too many pairs. No 14 hole ones though...

Wickedstepmum67 · 30/12/2017 17:40

Brilliant Xmas present! As a Doc Martens lover, I say wear 'em with anything and everything, and enjoy. 😉

starzig · 30/12/2017 17:42

If you are young enough, a tea dress. If not then mini skirt, fishnets and top.

HorseItIntoMe · 06/01/2018 17:35

My outfit with them today if anyone’s interested 🤓

They are fab, and you look fantastic OP!

I am a recent convert to docs and think these are lovely.

JoyceDivision · 06/01/2018 17:52

Tarquin,I'm 40 and have 14 and 20 hole dms, it's not a pipe dream, get some bought!

Mermaidbutmytailfelloff · 06/01/2018 20:02

Tarquin, I am 50 odd and have with much deliberation (and help on here!) bought my first pair of dms. Since I haven't worn anything else since they arrived I will soon be getting more! Had loads of people complimenting them too! Just go for it....

HorseItIntoMe · 07/01/2018 10:14

Agree Tarquin get some bought !!

I wish people wouldn’t think they’re “too old” for stuff. Or “too” anything 😔

TarquinGyrfalcon · 07/01/2018 11:40

I am tempted - although I’ve just embarked on a no-spend January after the excesses of December.
I shall earmark them as my next purchase.
Not sure why I’m worried about how I’ll look as one of the good things about getting older is that I generally don’t care what others think!

TarquinGyrfalcon · 07/01/2018 11:41

I should add I do own half a dozen pairs of docs already...

HorseItIntoMe · 07/01/2018 14:56

Same Tarquin at 38 I’m Way more confident and couldn’t give a fuck

Get some in feb 😆

OP, you’re one of those people that other people take mental notes of their outfits.

Love your boots, they really suit you.

Undercoverbanana · 07/01/2018 15:15

DMs are the very best. Skinnies, leggings, shift dresses, short skirts - they go with everything are are so smart and comfortable. I wear my DM boots almost everyday for work and at weekends.

HorseItIntoMe · 07/01/2018 15:17

OMG raptors thank you

That Honestly means so much X
