The Most Stylish Rainy Day Essential

Hey y’all! How’s your Wednesday going? Over the weekend, the weather was absolutely gorgeous—a tad chilly but very sunny, and it felt like spring. But yesterday?! Back to rain! I guess you can’t get more spring-like than that…Even though we still have a ways ‘til the end of winter, I wanted to share my favorite rainy day clothing item for the upcoming season—these Ralph Lauren rain booties.

I have been wanting a pair of those narrow-shaped black rain booties that everyone seemed to be wearing last spring, and for Christmas that wish was answered! Plus, it came in the form of a sassy leopard print. 😉

I’ve worn these Ralph Lauren leopard rain booties almost every day for the past two weeks. The neutral color palette goes with a ton (I’ve especially liked pairing it with beige and forest green), and the shoes are super comfy. I’m wearing a size 7, my usual size, and they fit well with a thick pair of socks.

I love when an item is both super functional and stylish, and these boots definitely deliver. The only thing I recommend is that you wear tall(ish) socks with them. If not, the plastic can rub on your ankles a bit.

Other than that, these booties are great and I highly recommend them! While tall printed rain boots are fun, I think this trendier short version is the way to go. They’re easier to pack/store, and they can be worn with so much (whereas, tall colorful rain boots may not go with a ton). And even though they’re short, the booties are just tall enough to prevent your legs from getting wet while splashing through a puddle. 🙂

What’s your go-to rainy day piece? Does it rain a lot where you live? Thanks for stopping by today!

Miles of smiles,

Grace
