Here are the cliff notes. I ordered them, I tried them on, and I was pleasantly surprised. Owning to having legs on the short side, I’m used to knee-high boots coming up too high, sitting awkwardly on my knee. But not these. In my case, they sit precisely where I want them to.
Emma had already warned me that they weren’t exactly roomy around the calf, and she was right. I’m a pretty true size 12, and they only just zip up over leggings or jeans (as you’ll soon see). This, I’ll admit, was a disappointment, especially from Marks and Spencer, which I’ve found to be more generous with its boot sizing in the past. So it’s something to bear in mind if you’re thinking of investing in them, too.
All in all, I’m pleased with my purchase of trending boots. I genuinely think they look just as good as the real designer deals that are knocking about now. Like everything new I buy, I always make sure I can wear the item with several outfits to ensure it’s worthwhile. I took snaps as I went along, and I thought, “Why not share them with you,” if for no other reason than to prove just how versatile they turned out to be. So scroll on to see the five chunky-knee-boot outfits I’ll be wearing this autumn.
