Almost thigh high...

In this month's VOGUE, I was confused as to why PRADA ever thought that these were a good idea...

This look is most definitely not for me...however, inspired by QM's post about her new Topshop thigh high boots, I dug out a pair of over the knee boots I have had for ages, but never worn.

Even though QM made them look positively demure in the below image, I had always steered clear of them through fear of looking 'slutty'. I think I would definitely need to wear them with leggings and a pretty dress a la QM, rather than with bare legs.

Unlike QM's boots, mine come just up over the knee and are flat, as opposed to manically high wedged platform numbers! I bought mine in Next of all places. I wore my Topshop suede ones far more often, back in the day, over my jeans, and folded down to resemble something out of Pirates of the Caribbean. It was a good look at the time, honest!

My Hero!

The Kenneth has promised to buy me a dress for the wedding at the weekend. YAY! Perfect Man! So I am going to head into town in a couple of hours, choose it, then go for dinner at Wagamma (Two Chicken Katsu Curries please!) and then we are going to see the new Johnny Depp film in the cinema...I forget what it's called. Wish me luck!
