I bought my first pair of shoe boots/shoots/shoebooties/schbooties - whatever ... around 3 years ago from Clarks. I'd seen a few people on Avenue 57 rock the dress/shoe boot look and thought I'd better have a go. I also bought the most amazing pair of ankle boots with a little heel that I also wear with dresses/skirts etc but the heel just broke and I will admit that I nearly cried. I'm going to take them to the cobblers (such an old fashioned term) to see if they can do anything. If they can't, then I will cry.
There is a very fine line between and ankle boot and a shoe boot. I actually think all of these are ankle boots. The phrase I'm seeing on all these sites is 'heeled chelsea boot'. The great thing is they can be worn with jeans/trousers/skirts and dresses - probably the most versatile piece of footwear you will ever own.
My top 5 picks for black shoe boots:
New Look - £24.99
Clarks - £69.99
Office - £75 (low stock, be quick if you like)
Marks & Spencer - £35
Dorothy Perkins - £29
Here I am today in my shoe boots with a skirt (I swear the tights and the shoes in real life do look ok and not as crap as it is showing here)!
What do you call them? I call mine shoe boots!

Having looked at some others yes, mine are shoe boots!
DeleteI have a pair of black shoeboots and love them with dresses and skirts!
ReplyDelete~Anne xx
I am thinking I might need more to enable me to wear more dresses in the winter
DeleteDefinitely shoe boots. Like your selection (although I've tried on the Marks ones and they're really uncomfortable .. thought I'd let you know!)
ReplyDeleteOh interesting because they would be my first choice to replace my broken ones. I'll order them and try and 'see' but thanks for the tip off
DeleteShoe boots, Im on the hunt for a new pair too, to many to choose from though :) xx
ReplyDeleteIt's overwhelming how many gorgeous boots there are this year
DeleteDefinitely shoe boots for yours! I have a pair of black, a pair of grey and a pair of brown shoe boots and too many pairs of ankle boots too - a bit addicted I think! Love the New Look ones. Lynne x
ReplyDeleteWOW, you do have a lot!
DeleteShoe boots/ ankle boots whatever, they look great x
ReplyDeleteI'm in the 'whatever' category too! I love them
DeleteI love the Office ones....they come in leather too which I am considering!! Fab picks Fiona....the time has definitely arrived for us to get the boots out! xx
ReplyDeleteOooh leather would be perfect for the British weather!
DeleteI don't know what they're called either but yours look fab with that lovely skirt x
ReplyDeleteThey're great with dresses and skirts - it's taken me a while to 'get' this trend but I'm going to use it a lot this Winter
DeleteLove your boot selection esp the Office ones. I think I may have to get my beige boots out today (weather permitting!)
ReplyDeleteI don't have beige .. need some!
DeleteI've heard them called Shoots...but for me, it's booties! I always look for a pair with a bit of a dip on the front as my legs are so short and straight across ones tend to make my legs look shorter. Now I've got my new navy ones, I'm going to be brave and start wearing them more with skirts and dresses! Ax
ReplyDeleteYes that is the key I think Avril, the dip at the front for a more flattering look with skirts/dresses
DeleteLove that skirt on you! They're always shoots for me - salivating over M&S ones at the mo. Actually don't think I own a pair. "faints"!
ReplyDeleteGet yourself a pair NOW
DeleteThe Office ones are just perfect! Ax
ReplyDeleteThey are aren't they? I've just taken some New Look ones in but they stink!
DeleteI would call the ones you are wearing a shoe boot for sure but the others are more ankle boots in my head! x
ReplyDeleteI think you are right
DeleteI would call yours a shoe boot for sure! Loving those office boys there x
ReplyDeleteReckon the Office ones will sell out soon!
DeleteYours are a shoe boot! Great selection, I have bought two pairs if boots for this winter, so have to stop now!
