Rain Rain Go Away

So what's the deal with rain boots? I realize it was raining crazily outside for the past couple days, but seriously, can't we find something a bit cuter to wear?

For some reason, I just cannot seem to like these boots made from rubber that remind me of being a child. I truly understand the need to be dry and warm, but there really are a ton of other shoes available at every price point that will have the same effect! It was especially hilarious seeing these girls stomp around in their big ole rubber boots once the rain went away and the sun came out! You look like you're about to go work on a farm!!! Ladies, this is just unecessary in California! Just throw on a pair of good leather/patent boots and be on your merry way.

On a serious note, I apologize for the rant...and I'm sorry if you like them [they can look cute on some people], so I will get to my point! There are much better options available in which I will show you below... [even though I'm crossing my fingers that we don't get anymore rain!]. P.S Don't even get me started on Uggs...I wear them in the house and to take the dog outside, they are not for going out drinking at night!

If you absolutely have to wear rain boots:

Lust for Lita

  

Lita is a phenomenon. 

Since her arrival in Fall 2010, she has been the talk of every blogger and fashionista. For those of you who do not know about Lita, my only question is, where have you been!? Mostly joking, but I think everyone needs a little bit of Lita in their lives. 

Coming in a multitude of colours, there's definitely something for everyone, and at an average of $160 per pair, it is somewhat attainable. Styles go from basic colours [black, grey, brown, etc.] to the Lf exclusive leopard fur...and even shag! Unfortunately, Lita is getting so popular that many styles sell out immediately [as in a few hours]. I already own the brown, and am currently lusting over the black glitter, black fur, taupe suede, pewter glitter, and leopard fur...only about $800 worth of the same shoe (crazy, I know, but I told you I was addicted to shoes!). Sadly, the black glitters sold out on Solestruck right away but I will continue to wait for them.

At 5.5 inches, you may already be thinking "there's no way I could walk in those," but the high platform and an extra thick heel makes them simple and comfortable to move about in. For those of you that are tall, even better! When I wear my Litas I am just over 6'2" and I love it! I have worn them shopping, to school, out at night, and pretty much anywhere else I can! My only advice to you besides to buy them, would be to go down at least a half size and be cautious around stairs.
