Featured Shoe: Joules Posh Wellies

NOTE  – THESE BOOTS ARE NO LONGER FOR SALE!

I was sifting through my Tumblr yesterday evening and came upon the most delightful wellies I’d ever seen.

The beautiful Brabourne Farm site had a post on a bunch of adorable wellies and these just stopped me in my tracks.

I adore cute wellies but these have to be my favorites so far. They weren’t referenced so I had to do a bit of sleuthing but I finally found them… and on sale too!

The red pair are shiny and striking.

But I love the navy with the blush bows.

But the Meadow green pair are my favorites. They all have the classic wellie shape and would look just adorable with dresses and tights in winter as well as cute summer shorts.

Wellies have become one of those “must have” shoes that every girl needs. These are a bit high for rainboots but not too crazy pricey, especially at the sale price. And if you wear them as fashion boots (not yard work boots) they will last a long time and add a fun, fanciful element to a dreary rainy day.

Utterly Ridiculous

I haven’t ever been a huge fan of Tory Burch but this is truly ridiculous.

Looks like a regular old duck boot to me, right?

No, it’s a Tory Burch duck boot… for $195!

A $195 for a duck boot that doesn’t look any different than a traditional one. Plus, how can you even wear that out in the rain for that price? I used to wear this type of shoe to my riding stable to wear when I wasn’t riding. When I was doing things like washing the horse or cleaning a stall.

I like nice shoes but almost $200 for a “work” shoe? That’s just stupid.

Just get a nice L.L. Bean one for $60…

I’m sure you can even find generic cheaper ones. And I’m sure they would all work and feel exactly the same.
