it's raining, it's pouring

 and rain boots are not boring.  they used to be -- when they were called "galoshes".  who wants to wear THAT?!?!

i remember one of the engagement photos of Princess Diana and Prince Charles.  (yep - i am that kind of Brit, thank you very much.  i have a nice collection of memorabilia) i was beyond obsessed.  she was wearing Hunter wellies - and she looked like the most glamorous creature i had ever seen.  years later - Kate Moss at Glastonbury festival - wearing the ultimate rocker chick outfit - and Hunter wellies to muck through the mud - again - style perfection. 

most likely after the Glastonbury photo - wellies got INSANELY popular here in the olde US of A.  and now, everyone and their little sister makes a rain boot.  if you're feeling traditional - the Hunter wellie will get you through any storm - including this disgusting mess outside my window right now.  if you're feeling a bit designer-y - Burberry is well in on the action as well.  and if you're feeling budget-y, Laila Rowe has a well priced and pretty adorbs collection of wellies to be had.

the rest of you may get soaked to the bone - but your feet will look cute and your tootsies will stay dry!
