yes and no... it depends if you look good in them, if you do yes but if you dont no.

 

[eastendsnob]

Yes, yes, yes, if you've got the legs!

I absolutely them, In know it's so last year, but who cares, I want to wear them this fall. They are indeed very sexy & feminine, but where the hell do I buy them. Anybody ? any idea?

thanx

over the knee boots are great. But you do have to be so careful with how you wear them. As so many people said, they don't normally work with minis. BUT I did once see a girl in a brown pair of over the knee leather boots, and worn with a chocolate brown mini skirt and drapey, loose ivory chiffon top, it looked really good...not hooker-ish at all.

I think it totally depends on how you wear them and on the ATTITUDE with which you carry it off.

Some of the runway models look great,but unfortunately I have never seen a woman on the street quite pull it off. .

Yes or no for over the knee boots? Depends on the boot, depends on the knee.

Would it work on petite figure ? Say 5 ft 2 ?

^ Hmmm..I'll say to be safe, try on these boots before buying, peferably with an outfit that you'll wear these boots in just to see if it works.

It's a little harder to pull this look off if you are on the petite side, but I really think it depends on the person, the outfit and the attitude

^^ Attitude is key - in OTK boots, you can't be meek and mild and shy, you've got to confront the world with a "Here I am!" confidence!

I know! Some of those boots would come up to my hip bone!

I like the look, just NOT leather, or that shiny plastic look (whatever you call the material) But I loooove suede ones. Oh, minus the heel.
