Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 Can you post up some pictures of the Nadia boots you got? What colour did you get? Here you go. I got them in black,but they were quite small on me,in the foot. My toes hit the end,which they never normally do in a size 6 Croc,so they had to go back To be honest there is not much benefit to them for me over the Mammoths which I already have in black & berry ,& keep my feet cosy & dry whatever the weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 They look cosy-but I think I'll stick to my nice pair of suedey flowery boots! Where did you get your berry mammoths from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 Jellyegg They are GORGEOUS, & are a lovely autumnal shade of pink - very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam42 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I too ordered a banger booster but agree with Cinnamon that it is small. The cup size was fine but very tight across the back even though the same size as all my others. Shame as it was a lovely looking bra and material felt very nice.

Mrs Webmuppet Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I'd love a banger booster ( I need all the help I can get in that department) but it sounds as though it would be too tight across the back.........I am broad across the back and very narrow at the front. Buying bras is a total nightmare......of the 'high street' bras only Tescos and Next fit ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 ................I think they go up to a 40,Mrs WM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Thank you. I am only a 34 but my back is rather broad and I am sooo narrow at the front. I have even thrown myself at the mercy of the 'professional' bra fitters in the past who struggle to find suitable bra's ( in fact one rather unkindly stood there having measured me and said 'mmmmmmmmm you are a tricky one to fit, all back and no front!' ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I'm a Bravissimo girl, myself! I go once a year, get a fitting, stock up and then order anything else I want through the catalogue. They're not cheap but having been a D-cup since I was about 14, and I've ascended a few letters since then, I know the value of good support. I tried one of those M&S 'minimisers' once, but all they do is stow them under your armpits I reckon if you've got it, flaunt it - just make sure you have good scaffolding. I missed a delivery yesterday, I'll have to go to the sorting office and risk a parking ticket to pick up my new DUO BOOTS! Can't wait - I wore my last pair so much that they fell apart at the end of last winter. For anyone who doesn't know, they are boots for ladies with larger-than-average calves, and they are worth every penny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 I'm a Bravissimo girl, myself! I really must make the effort & go to the Oxford one. I keep meaning to, but its a fiar way & Oxford is a nightmare for parking They do some very pretty bras! I missed a delivery yesterday, I'll have to go to the sorting office and risk a parking ticket to pick up my new DUO BOOTS! Can't wait - I wore my last pair so much that they fell apart at the end of last winter. For anyone who doesn't know, they are boots for ladies with larger-than-average calves, and they are worth every penny. I have a pair of these - got them a couple of years ago,but then discovered Crocs & have never worn them I really must make an effort to use them this year - I remember them being really comfy, & fitting my sausage legs like a dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 They are marvellous - after years of being unable to buy boots, it has transformed my wardrobe. I can't walk in heels, and flat shoes always look a bit funny with a skirt, at least with office wear, but these look great with anything and I can walk miles in them. Highly recommended, I have a beautiful green suede pair (totally impractical as I daren't wear them if it might possibly rain) and I think if I can afford it in the spring I may treat myself to a slightly more casual 'biker boot' design. Get them out, Cinnamon, and get 'em on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 Its the biker style I have,I think. Nice & black & clumpy,anyway I even found Evans boots too tight on my legs, & wide on the foot,but these are brilliant. Thanks for the reminder that I have them in my wardrobe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Banger boosters!! Wow!! I'm a Freya gal, myself, as mine are "ample" and get in the way at work if not kept under control.... bit like naughty children!! and they do nice Knix to match!! not cheap though, I'd love to go to primark and buy bras for £4 rather than £40, but scaffolding is needed........
