The weather has been rubbish in London - its practically feels like winter again! Is perfect weather for thigh high boots, and am happy to say that have finally located a lovely pair of streamlined ones like the Brian Atwoods. Glad that all my hard work searching has paid off. Have now won the boots on ebay, after some heavy heart beating and counting down the minutes!!! Can just see them with my red cape, or worn like the below pic (although I will probably have about 4 inches less of leg poking out the top...).
