Blake Lively in Stella McCartney Thigh High Boots
Posted on January 20th, 2010 by Shomore under Celebrity Shoe Style, Shoe Trends, Stella McCartney Shoes
One current shoe trend I have yet to embrace and never will are thigh high boots. Appearance-wise, they are best left to those who have super skiny, mile long legs of which this shoe blogger does not possess. But even if I were taller, I’m not sure I would enjoy the lack of breathability in thigh high boots, what I assume would be constrictions in movement, giving up 10 or so minutes of my day to put the shoes on/off, or the minor flash of thigh as exhibited by Blake Lively who is wearing Stella McCartney’s perforated thigh high boots.
So I’m curious, if you could rock this shoe trend, would you wear thigh highs?

Oh my goodness.
At just under 5-3, I’d look like I was tottering on a pair of stuffed sausages. Plus, they’d be crotch-high & the pretty-woman-before-makeover thing is definitely not for me & probably an after 35 hard core No-no.

These boots look wonderful on the Neiman Marcus web site. They even looked great on Sharon Stone after photoshoping. I can’t imagine them on a real woman. Look closely where her hip and the boot meet. Even on Blake Lively there is a *lump/roll*.
I keep remembering the Friends episode where Ross wore leather pants, then couldn’t get them back up after going to the bathroom. I think I would be the same in thigh highs.

Hey guys some of us actually look good in these! I own this exact pair and I always get compliments whenever and where ever I wear them. I wish there was a way I could post a picture of me in them. My only complaint is my thighs are small, so the boot tends to slide down sometimes.

Kymberlea is great you call pull them off. I am sure they look gorgeous on. I have only seen them on Blake and Stella McCartney. Most folks just cant wear them. But you know not ever thing is for everybody.
LOL at the r5bales, friends flashback, hiliarous

I love boots but am much too short for thigh highs. I do love the over the knee boots though and am certainly glad boots have made a comeback.

I would pull them on and rock ‘em if I had the legs for it! It worries me that even Blake Lively has a little too much “junk in the trunk” to hide a little roll spilling over the top. Beautiful boots..but maybe they do just belong on stick-thin models.

I’m super short and these would be much like pantyhose to me. Haha
