Yay Or Nay Wednesday #3

YaynaybootsIt's voting time again! I keep spotting these £350 boots from Scorah Pattullo in magazines, and though they look funky all dressed up with yarn and knitting needles in craft-inspired shoots, do they really stand up to the test of being wearable? Or nice? Love them? Hate them? Think they should be left solely to Harajuku girls and 'quirky' art students? Can a normal woman really wear them? You have your say. The press love them, but do the public? Price aside, sweater-esque knitted boots - yay or nay?

Nay.. the quirky art students would probably look great in them, but a normal person? I don't think so..

The jumpers your grandma used to knit you for Christmas... wrapped around a pair of ugly green shiny boots... with the totally unnecessary addition of pom-poms? NAY thank you!

Posted by: Emma | September 28, 2005 5:36 PM

Nay ! It's like your nan's knitted jumper secretly attached itself to your boots, hoping that you wouldn't throw it away now it's securely wrapped around your sexy boots - this is inspiring grandmothers to make christmas jumpers last.

I think I'm alone in this one but I say yay. You would need a low key outfit to pull this off but I think it would work.
