I'm mildly obsessed with their stuff but can't afford to pay full price. I've ordered this dress too, but I'm less sure about it. I'm slim but busty so the shape might not work on me.

I ordered them this morning.... I slept on it and decided if my size was there this morning it was meant to be. Now hope that they fit 🤞🏼

Those boots are on their way to me too. Any thoughts on what to wear them with?

I also want to know how everyone is going to style the boots!!

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 24/03/2021 11:29

Midi dresses? Cuffed jeans? Pinterest has lots of examples if you search "styling ankle boots."

This is amazing that you are both showing the goods and offering the styling tips!

Now: say one is wearing ankle boots (brown) with a midi dress - what colour tights would you wear with them? If bare legs, what socks???

(Yes, I really need help after a year in skanky leggings and a hoody that makes me look like the Cookie Monster)

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 24/03/2021 19:50

I think I'd be inclined to go with bare legs (or possibly nude tights - or maybe nude fishnets, they can look quite cool), with socks "hidden" by the boots.

Maybe when the boots arrive I'll try a few options and post on here for feedback?

The website says people buying those boots also often buy the pomegranate salt and pepper shakers. Confused

Snooks1971 · 24/03/2021 20:56

klaxon
Boots are no longer available!
See what you’ve done OP! Grin

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 24/03/2021 21:02

But what about the pomegranate salt and pepper shakers??!

@GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal there will be an army of lookalikes across the land, all grateful to YOU.

TheDaydreamBelievers · 25/03/2021 07:43

I cant even SEE the boots as they are sold out!

Snooks1971 · 25/03/2021 19:25

Has anyone else’s boots arrived yet? Mine came today - so quick!

Not sure yet, I need to try again, only wrestled one of my hobbit feet in to the left one before getting all hot and bothered.

They are lovely though!

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 25/03/2021 19:46

That's not fair, mine aren't coming till tomorrow!! I want my boots!!!

Stamps boot-less feet.

I bought the boots too, they are arriving tomorrow! I am 50 something so hope they are not too young for me.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 25/03/2021 20:07

Why on earth would you be too old for them, @pinkearedcow? They're just boots.

@pinkearedcow

@pinkearedcow don’t be daft - no way are you too old! I’m 50 next week. They are pretty ageless IMO
Snooks1971 · 25/03/2021 20:10

@GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal let us know how you get on ... I’m so used to my Ash lived in hi tops and wasn’t used to brand new constricting leather Confused

goldpendant · 25/03/2021 21:38

Mine are arriving tomorrow! How are they coming up size wise? I'm a big 6 but not a 7..... ordered a 39. Let's hope they fit. I have got narrow feet!

Pinkappleblossom · 25/03/2021 21:39

Mine came! They are lovely but I had to completely unlace and relace them before I could fit my feet in them.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 25/03/2021 22:15

Waah, I ordered them first, how come everyone else's are arriving sooner??!

OP posts:
everyonebutme · 26/03/2021 06:16

Mine arrived yesterday evening and I've not tried them on yet. They look lovely in the box though! Worried about getting my feet into them now after comments above. By the way I'm 57 this year!
