I need to spend some money - boots, shoes and a few skirts

I am going to do some (on line) shopping today.

I am going to buy

  • some knee high black boots
  • some flat black ankle boots I can wear under jeans / trousers
  • some skirts I can wear with the knee high boots

I bought a denim skirt from Warehouse but it made me look really lumpy so I have returned it but can't find another one that I like. I am a size 12 with good long legs and am happy to wear short skirts. Happy to spend up to £45.

In terms of boots. I like these but am not happy with all the suede. I also like http://www.asos.com/Miss-Sixty/Miss-Sixty-Metal-Detail-Long-Boots/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=756723&ci d=1509&Rf-100=Boots&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Black these a lot but am not happy with the silver logo part.

I want a pair of cowboy style boots that will fit under trousers with a reasonably slim leg. They have to be black and can have a block heel but not too high as I want them for park etc. Happy to spend up to £100 but would be happier spending less.

I don't like Duo boots, I am a size 7. They have to be black as I already have brown, grey and green.

Thanks anyone who can help.

MM

Has anyone seen these in rl? Would they fit under trousers.

Thanks. Maybe that puts me off too! Though I expect your mum's a very stylish & beautiful woman . I have never bought shoes (or much at all) from Next but saw someone link to them elsewhere.

I never thought I'd say it but I am getting bloody tired of trawling looking for boots!

I did link to some Next ones but link seems to have gone. The Clean cowboy ones I think they were called.

No, I am online browsing now having had no joy earlier. I might just buy the Miss Sixty boots I linked to and see how blatant the name is.

I had a look at Fly and they're all a bit informal for me.

I am still looking anyway....
