Opinions on these Boots

I really like these. I think they would be good for work (business dress).

Would probably wear with bootcut trousers, blouse and Jacket.

I'm 50, Dd is 18 and is horrified. Grin

I am on my feet most of the day and have a bit of a walk from the carpark.

I am also a fire marshal so footwear needs to be enclosed and sturdy --but still business dress

Too funky? fredfunk.co.uk/products/untitled-sep5_12-13

I second Monsoon for shoes. I have a pair of silver/grey suede heels and they're great quality for the price.

Yeah Monsoon boots are surprisingly good. Even the pointy heeled ones are comfortable for me. I don’t t own footwear from any other ‘non footwear specialist’ places, just Monsoon. In fact bought some today from Vinted.

I love sparkles and colours in my footwear too.
Do it!

@Whatnowfgs can a workplace really dictate no jumpers or cardigans? I love the boots by the way

Whatnowfgs · 06/10/2023 22:00

@fridaynighter I assume so. I suppose it has never been challenged.

I see the link doesn't work anymore do you think I made them sell out? Grin

They are available through other outlets.

I think they look cheap and nasty, sorry OP.

These are nicer if it's that style/colour you particularly want:

The boots you've suggested are literally 10x more expensive.

dudsville · 06/10/2023 22:06

Op your first boots are fun without being wild or ott. I have a friend who would wear those well. The carvella and the really expensive boots are dull and safe. A person who wears your first pair is doing something interesting!

HappyMe6 · 26/12/2023 15:51

I like them go for it

Pigeon31 · 26/12/2023 17:57

They look fun, but I don't know if they look comfortable, you'd have to try them.

oneflewoverthe · 26/12/2023 18:29

@Flyinggeesei234 I never considered Monsoon for footwear either. I just picked up some Chelsea boots in the sale via your link. Bargain! Thanks!

oneflewoverthe · 26/12/2023 18:29

Oh this is an old post!

Kwasi · 26/12/2023 19:28

They don't look like 'on your feet all day' boots to me.

Have you tried Fly London?
