Skinny calf boots! - Real Mum story on MoM

8 Comments

I love boots. Especially knee high boots! My problem is that because my legs and calves are so skinny, they just swim on me! I’ve tried boots with a strap at the top to gather it all in but, it just looks puffy and the kind that lace up but, they’re few and far between in nice styles. I can get them adjusted but the adds to the cost as it is around $180 to get them altered. I’d love to buy some from Europe where boots come in different calf sizes! I wonder if I could get hubby to take me on a holiday!

I have a different problem. I have wide feet, especially across my toes. The only shoes i can find wide enough are mens. Consequently I mainly wear mens’ sneakers. They are going to be too hot travelling up in northern Aust. so I need to find some sandals – not with pointy toes as seems to be the latest ladies’ fashion, and to a lesser extent mens too. Looks like I do the rounds of the shoe shops to find a suitable pair. Not really looking forward to it.

Have you tried to find and buy some online? My hubby thinks knee high and higher boots are for bikie molls. Lol. Silly old bugger.
