I would take a 38, I'm a 39 and the I remember I tried the 40 and it was simply huge. And I use the 40 in the lacow, bidou etc booties.

^I saw lots of Etoile stuff in store today. Fell in love with a vest and a creme colored blazer but will wait for the next sales because all IM stuff in that store always goes on sale with 70% off People here don't get the Marant hype yet, apparently.

[gossiping]

surely, you jest.

YAY! I found a pair! Can't wait!!!

My dicker boots arrived today. They're more beautiful then I thought they'd be. I think I might spray them with a suede waterproofer though so I don't have to worry about them.

^Are dicker the new ones? what colour did you go for? I had such trouble tracking mine down when I got them, it was such a challenge but so worth it!

You need to spray them every day if you plan on wearing them in snow or rain. Suede is really delicate.

pembldon - Yes, the dicker is her same boot as the lacow, etc. it's just the name of it for s/s '11 I guess. I purchased the taupe color - it's a dark taupe that I think will go with everything. They were so hard to find since she doesn't sell them online here (USA), you have to find some small boutique that carries her line and that will sell them to you via phone order.

The Ida ~ I sprayed them with apple guard rain and stain for leather and suede protection, I usually use it on my bags so I felt comfortable using it.

[The_Ida]

^Yes, but you need to spray often. No matter what you're using.

Do you wear yours in the snow? I live in Norway and I haven't worn my boots in Oslo ever since november, and I really miss wearing them I feel so ugly wearing my doc martens because of the weather. but I'm frightened that the water will penetrate through the waterproof spray regardless.

^^There's a french blogger I like that wears hers in the snow (hopefully this will link to the right page on her blog, but if it doesn't look at her december posts):

I'm guessing she just waterproofed hers. They seem no worse for the wear.

[The_Ida]

Sure. But you still need to spray them frequently.
