    My stupid legs are long, so over the knee boots usually just about reach my knees and knee high ones are mid calf :mad:

    I'll be wearing my fake suede ones (over knee) from Penneys again.

    Thanks, I think over the knee boots are great for winter and look really edgy.

    They are not the easiest trend to pull off. I think they would look great with a tunic/dress
    and coloured tights that match the boots. They could also be worn with skinny jeans.
    For during the day, You could wear them with a long chunky knit cardi and dress.

    Sure as hell am. Got a divine pair in Faith around this time last year and wore them to bits, so it's replacement time. :)

    Not too high and worn with short skirts/leggings. I'll get plain auld black ones for versatility.

    Did you go with a heel or platform?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 272 ✭✭angelxx


    I went with a low heel and they went just above my knee, Wore them mostly with short skirts. As I said they are not the easiest trend to pull off, Your style is rock chick? Adapt them to your style and black goes with everything.

    I like them when they're flat. not really sure about the ones with heels, bit slappery I think, sometimes I don't think that though between two minds haha

    Stumbled across this thread while browsing, just thought i'd throw my 2 cents in there....
    There is nothing sexier and more attractive (imho) than a girl wearing a pair of over the knee boots! Love that look.........

    I took the plunge and bought a pair of Topshop suede over-the-knee boots! I was in two minds about whether I could pull them off (I'm 5'0" so there was an initial worry they might be crotch-grazing!), but they come to just the right height. They're lovely. :)
