Style 101: April Showers Bring May Flowers-Saying Yes To Rain Boots

Rain, rain go away-come again another day. Don’t be the one singing the weather blues this spring. When April showers come around, most people dread the idea of wearing rain boots or they’re willing to ruin their everyday shoe of choice. Don’t be afraid to try something different and give rain boots a try. Remember ladies, being fashionable doesn’t mean forgetting about functionality. Just because rain boots are functional and necessary in some cases, they don’t have to be an eyesore. There are tons of super trendy and chic rain boots that will complement your outfit whether you’re going to the office or having a casual weekend out and about.

As a lover of leopard print, there’s no way I could tell you about rain boots without showing you a pair with leopard print. I love these super affordable Target ‘Adara’ Rain Boots in Brown Leopard. The print is subtle, chic, and definitely a statement shoe. With these boots, you want to keep your outfit simple. I would wear these boots with a simple white v-neck (my weekend go-to piece) and dark denim. If I had these in my closet, I’d be doing the rain dance just to bring these sassy boots out.

I love the Steve Madden ‘Downpour’ Rain Boot! It’s edgy and right on trend with gold stud accents and buckle details. If it’s warm enough, these boots would go perfectly with a leather mini skirt or if it’s chilly, motorcycle denim is a must!

If you’re all about labels, try these Michael Kors ‘Logo Mid’ Rain Boot. The logo is subtle against the black patent boot and it’s totally affordable compared to popular Burberry and Gucci rain boots. The logo and color are simple enough to go with anything in your closet. And the boot is sophisticated enough to wear to the office! Don’t even worry about packing those heels in your purse with this chic rain boot. No change of shoes needed.

If you’re really into keeping up with current trends, this Ted Baker ‘Atiri’ Rain Boot is totally spring ready. With the oh so popular pastel trend, these mint beauties are girly, pretty, and fun. The boot also has a delicate floral pattern at the top of the boot that fades down the leg of the boot creating a floral ombré (which everyone seems to be obsessed with these days-myself included). Love the buckle detail that wraps around the ankle and harnesses around the bottom of the shoe. I would pair these boots with a flowy dress and denim jacket for a casual weekend out.

We all know that Hunter is basically the “it” boot to have in your closet! They’re functional and come in a variety of colors, but I tend not to buy simple products that I will see everyone wearing. Who doesn’t like a little individuality right? Well, I can’t deny that Hunter rain boots are a must have, but you don’t have to follow the fad. I found these Hunter ‘Sandhurst Carlyle’ rain boots that are different than the popular ‘Original’ collections. I love how elegant these rain boots look. They remind me of a pair of Vince Camuto two-tone riding boots. The dark ruby color reminds me of the trendy plum color that is still very popular this spring. These Hunter boots are office approved and can even be worn on a night out.
