As winter and its wet weather creeps toward us, you’re probably wondering how to approach seasonal shoe shopping: “Do I really want to buy cute suede booties when they’ll just end up getting destroyed in the rain or snow? What will happen to my nice work heels if I accidentally step in a puddle?”
Turns out, you don’t have to exchange your booties and heels for rain boots and snow boots. There are actually several brands that offer cute shoes designed to withstand the elements. This blog features RLS’s three favorite waterproof shoe brands: Aquatalia, Blondo, and Italeau. Some of the prices may seem a bit high, but keep in mind how much time you will save checking and worrying about the weather!
I’m in desperate need of a new tall black boot so the Blondo Ellie Waterproof Riding Boot might be coming home with me very soon! I plan to try them on when we are shopping for clients at Nordstrom this week. They are beautiful and an amazing price point.
Happy Shopping!
