Basically I want to find some nice, over the knee, black boots which don’t look slutty and don;t have a very high heel so they are manageable and I can actually wear them without causing myself multiple fracture.

To my horror, a quick browse on e-bay returned the following selection: a pair of size 7 white boots, a pair of tacky, pointy boots with a killer 4-inches heel, a pair of old, size 8 cavalier boots, and various other ‘beauties’ not even worth a mention.

Conclusion: I need to learn to be flexible if what I want to wear doesn’t actually exist, and will stick to under-the-knee lovelies
