Constant, unrelenting rain for about three weeks has led me to an almost physical craving for these two articles of clothing. They are so good-looking I want to eat them, and I would if I could.

Damn you, adorable tattoo rain boots!

Curse you, sassy red shiny rain coat!
A pox on both of you brazen hussies! You put lust in my heart, and wilt thou leave me thus unsatisfied in this land devoid of shopping options and shoes in my size? Begone, out of my sight, I tell you.
And off I go in my flip flops, flinging muddy water onto the backs of my calves with every step. Ah, life in Paradise.
When I was a silly and eccentric college girl I used to wear a yellow slicker and red galoshes, often in the summer rain over a bathing suit so I could go out puddle splashing. oh the whimsy! Those are truly great boots, pragmatic, brazen and a little slutty. Like all the best ladies!

Jillian: What do you wear now that you are a silly and eccentric non-college, adult girl?

Boots with funky designs on them seem to be the new fad for fall around here. You can even get them at Walmart for an affordable price. After walking in the rain today and soaking the bottom of my pants, I think I’ll get my arse to the store and score me some of dem.
Amen

Hmm…why didn’t you post links to where you found those? They are cute and I can’t shop w/o the links.

Those boots are sweet!! I have wellies but they they don’t have quite the same panache.

I am always showing up to work with mud all over the backs of my calves! Milo laughs at me when I attempt to avoid this by not picking up my feet and actually just sliding one foot in front of the other.

Don’t care for the boots but definitely digging the shiny trench.
