The weather in Boston over the past few days has consisted of rain, rain and just when you think the sun’s going to break through…more rain. For the past week I’ve been sporting my plain old black rain boots to and from the office, and it has been seriously depressing. In an effort to upgrade up my current go-to rainy weather footwear, I decided to look for a new pair of wellies that are both practical and stylish! And hopefully warm enough to get me through the cold winter months.
In Boston it seems like everyone owns a pair of Hunter ‘Original Tall’ wellies. While I admit that they are definitely a practical option, I don’t think I’d go so far as to say stylish. As we learned from what I like to call the “North Face Fleece Phase,” not all trends in New England equal fashion trends.
Here are 5 of my favorite wellies that will keep your feet dry, but not your outfit!
1. Hunter’s Regent Apsley
2. Hunter’s Regent Grosvenor
4. Michael Kors ‘Fulton’ Rain Boot
