Boots

I brought these over a year ago and still haven't worn them..

Trying to get my sense of style back after having a little one but have lost confidence and time to plan outfits 😅

I am tall 5,10 so normally have a longer length in trousers

Thank you !

i raised a similar thread recently for chunky soled boots and had some good recommendations. I’ve ended up getting Levi 501 crops in a 28 leg (I’m 5 foot 8) and they are great. I’m sure they would look good with docs. I paid 40 quid for them on Amazon so much cheaper than from Levi direct.

Pretty much anything goes with DM boots!. I wear mine with jeans, skinnies through to wide legs, wide leg trousers and joggers, leggings, work trousers, skirts and dresses :)

I wear mine with absolutely anything.
I know skinnies are apparently terribly unfashionable now, but I often wear my docs only tied loosely, skinny black jeans and a band tee (but I'm a metal head so it goes with the territory 😉🤘🏻)
I no longer wear actual docs as the quality is so bad now, mine are solovair, still made in England

Agree with the crop 501s, but yea also basically anything.

I think they work with anything, I only have two pairs of boots for winter: lined DMs and Solovair 8-eyelet brogues and I wear them with trousers and skirts. You can see them on the Shopping my wardrobe 2026 thread combined with different bottoms because that’s what I have.

I second @Seagullstopitnow, my Solovairs were the same price but are better made. Unfortunately they are not lined for winter so I need to wear thick wool socks.
