My mum owns these red boots which are pretti old.... suprised they're christian dior... thats what the box says!! haha!! She asked me if I wanted them.... is it just me or the more i look at them, the more they look like red gumboots?!?!?!?!

I'd like some advice from u ppls~
I'm short (not even 1.6m).. have short legs & biggish thighs as u can see in photo....
I'm working on slimming the thighs though...



what length boots will suit me? i don't want high heeled 1's because i can't cope in heels well.....

Should I take these boots or not?!? I don't have any boots let alone even gone shopping for any..... the colour also seems odd doesn't it? never seen any red boots worn around.....

They aren't my fave but I love the color.

But there's just something about it that makes it lose its appeal.
The height is great, but without it, it looks like a mens' shoe to me.

I don't know. If it was me, I wouldn't take it.

You can't keep running from what you're trying to find.

The equestrian look is in now, but these ones sort of look... man-ish. like hardxcoreL0VER said. I don't think you should take them, unless there's an outfit that can really pull it off. I dunno, Christian Dior usually isn't too wearable. ermm.gif

I don't think it looks like Christian Dior. I mean, it looks sorta awkward. It looks sorta wide in the third picture.
Those shoes look old.. Newer shoes are more slim because they have zippers.

If they're Christian Dior, take them. And the vintage look is kind of cool.

I should tell u guys about my clothing dress....maybe that will give u guys an idea.... I'm the jeans & Tshirt girl who wears sneakers / sports shoes all the time...very casual looking... so I was kind of trying to look for a change...

Hahaha!! The box says Christian Dior & the colour section thingy is red! So I assume its ancient pair of Christian Dior or its fake!! XD

The problem with newer shoes is that I need to have long legs to look good in them let alone even be able to zip it up entirely or else I'd have to wear skinny leg jeans to be able to wear it if it doesn't have a zipper coz ithe boot is too slim.... as a short person with short legs & biggish thighs, skinny leg jeans will make me look even shorter.

They're O.K., not my personal style, but if you think you can pull it off, go right ahead. _smile.gif

Flat boots are really popular nowadays. Take them, even if it's just for the time being. They'd look great over skinny jeans.

My legs are kind of the same way, but I feel that the skinny cut lengthens them. I dunno, try it and see what happens.
 
showstopper!
