they're nice in rl too!

Jones the bootmaker has some nice ones in too, lou. more sleek and grown up than my big fark off rigger boots

my thread has so been hijacked LOL

with you on the In thing nappies - but anyway, they are in, they are they are they are - only have to look at the dress up dummies on Netaporter and matches to see that - plus Vogue says so.

So there, previous poster (have forgotten your name sorry)

eyelasH- winter shorts had not gone "out", some things just work and so are here to stay, I think that this is one look that will stick around for a while as its wearable but strays from safe.

re shorts with tights, I couldnt not wear my shorts without tights, I'd be locked up for indecent exposure if I didnt have them on but all the bright young things near me are wearing cut off denims with opaques and ballet pumps or uggs- if I was five years younger I might give the look a go myself but I think I might be just a bit past it! Its v on trend at the mo to wear tights with shorts.

hi letthem, sorry for nicking your thread - how rude!
went shopping today
didnt see shorts, saw dresses. so got them instead.
saw gorgeous biker boots too... have resisted until i see what these work boots are like.

ooh nappiesgalore, where did you see biker boots?
I think to wear winter shorts, you need a good pair of legs as most are mid thigh length so cut accross the leg at the fattest part ( she says bitterly looking at her big wobbling thighs and shaking her head). There is just no way I could carry that off even with tights.

I have my doubts about my abilities too. Sometimes I think my legs are okay but mostly, if I'm honest, they're pretty foul. I may re-think the shorts thing ....

yes, nappies, where were bikers please?

gah... cant remember name of place... was a 3 letter shop name in the marlands shopping centre in southampton. weird yellowy light and trez industrial interior. i can remember that they had doc martens, a brand called Art and some others... the boots were a brand called Oxygen, with an O2 embossed on the heel (small like, not like a mobile phone advert)
they were yummy.
will look for a link but may be called away to deal with my children who are all in the bath as i type...

hey i found them! this is the website of the shop in question too... they have nice stuff

they were quite a bit nicer in rl than the pic shows tbh

the office and jones sites are too expensive for me, i have v similar boots to the m&s ones in black already, i wanted something less casual , but they are v nice

hmmm... not overly loving those boots nappies.

i ain't doin shorts though - dresses/long tops & leggings i'm fine with, but not shorts.

I want some good army/biker type boots.
