I liked the ridiculous biker types with the studded straps but had 3 or 4 differnt types on and liked them all

my friend has just bought some pied a terre which are lovely on
i'm still making do with last year's shoe boots......

GLORY BE A BOOT THREAD

Okay, this may be a controversial statement (what? On MN? Never........) BUT I think spending £200 for a fab pair of boots is worthwhile.

I have a pair of black knee high heeled boots from Hobbs which cost me £200 5 years ago. Am just having them re-soled for the first time ever. They still are in perfect nick.

However, for bargainous and funky boots, I don't think you can beat Faith. I have a pair of biker boots which are 2 years old and still going strong.

can't you get them for Christams AND birthday

Lauriefairyonthetreeeatscake · 05/12/2009 13:30

oh god buy them. I just bought a pair of those fitflop short Mukluk boots yesterday and totally overpaid for them (£125 everywhere, I paid £149.99) in Sole Trader as they are sold out everywhere else and the shop assistant said when I pointed it out "We are the only in this town selling them so we can charge what we like".

tis true but I still felt gibbed.

I say badger hubby till he concedes defeat. Then, once they are bought, tell him you want a matching handbag for your birthday! R&B do fab bag/match boot sets.

FreeGeorgeJackson · 05/12/2009 15:05

he is in good mood
