I have this dress for a special event we have coming up, I am a size 18. We will be outside for some time and I have a smart warm jacket and thick tights to wear. Can I wear boots with it? If so what length? I have chunky legs so would need a wide fit. Or if not what would you suggest? Need something comfy-ish for standing around. I’m not great at dressing smartly! Any advice gratefully received.

Course you can. I have the Hotter quilted suede knee ones, elastic side panel - in burgundy. They will look great with that dress.

Where is the dress from? I love it!

It’s from Roman, I don’t think MN like them very much!

That’s a really nice dress, boots or flat shoes would both be fine with it.

Pavers and SimplyBe both have a good selection of wide calf boots

Thank you, uncertain which way to go! I think I probably need to bit of a heel so I don’t look too dumpy!

Ooh I have some lovely silver and copper jewellery to wear too, so the brown would work I think
