There has never been a time since the late seventies when I haven’t had at least one pair of over the knee boots in my wardrobe – usual black suede or black leather, but I did also dabble in metallic leather. I love them (obviously) and currently have two suede pairs and one leather, but having seen the purple ones you tried, I’m going to have to seek those out. I’m no spring chicken, and I’m not skinny, although I am quite tall and my legs have always been the bit that I didn’t want to change!
Go on, go for it, you’ll be converted!

I have a black suede pair that have been a constant in my wardrobe for 3 winters now. I have large calves & boots that stop half way do me no favours. I always feel bulletproof in tall boots & the right length skirt. You should just go for it!

I love the idea of tall boots with skirts that cover the tops. Very sleek and neat. And warm. Jx

So sorry about the funeral… You have to be careful about the over knee boots. On the tall and thin they can negatively evoke Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman” and on the truly short and round “Puss in Boots” which is a good look for a cat but not so much for a woman. Stick with brown suede which is softer and lose the knee gap. Your calves are quite slender and you look good in these:) Feeling opinionated this morning…

Hmm I am older and rounder so I would not wear them . But they do look good on tall skinny types.
