Wellies!!!!

I don't know where you are, but it was soo rainy in New York this week. And the perfect thing to wear on the way to work when it is pouring out is a cute pair of Wellington Boots (galoshes, wellies, whatever you want to call them.) Just throw some cute flats or sandals in your tote to put on once you get to work, and you are good to go!

These are the classic Hunter Wellinton Boots. First popularized by the Duke of Wellington in the early 19th century, these are the archetype that every other boot is modeled after. And you can find them in tons of different colors as well... shopbop.com has pink, yellow, red, navy, green and more...




If you are looking for something a little more fun, there are tons of patterned and printed options. Chooka has a great selection... From these Houndstooth Rain Boots to Preppy Whale Patterns, Anchors, or even Breast Cancer Ribbons (10% of proceeds for this particular boot go to Breast Cancer Research.)





These funny little Marc Jacobs Jelly Ballet Flats serve the same practical function as the Wellie. They even have holes along the side of the shoe, so that your foot can breathe. But beware, you may still get quite muddy. I would only wear these in the city... No outdoor camping trips in these babies.
