Wedge Rain Boots to Step Up Your Rainy Day Style! (thefind Guest Post)

by

From our friends at thefind.com:

Waking up to the sound of an unexpected spring downpour doesn’t necessarily have to mean that you’re day’s outfit is totally hopeless. Kick your clunky galoshes to the curb and invest in a rather stylish wedge rain boot, and you may find  yourself jumping for joy the next time rainy weather drops in for a visit. Hunter has several elevated styles, but my favorite is definitely the Andora wedge with its slight platform sole and strappy buckle embellishment. If you’re all about color, these lace-up ‘Rain Check’ boots by Dirty Laundry make a serious statement with their lace-up detail and bright colors like fuchsia (shown above). Embrace a sexy print with these python-patterned boots from Charlotte Russe (they’re bargain-friendly, too!), or if you’d prefer a heightened take on a more classic style, these Loeffler Randall Matilde Boots have just the slightest wedge for a baby step in a more stylish direction!

Go nude this spring. Pinky shades of beige are all the rage this season and make for the perfect warm weather wardrobe. Neutral shades of beige complement either an all nude shaded ensemble or a black and white combination. Add a nude-toned handbag, statement necklace or strappy tied sky high sandals to add a feminine touch of romance to your look.

The design can be slipped on easily and features a tulip hem with dramatic draping effect on the back. Draw some attention to your neckline with a pretty bejeweled necklace that oozes sweetness. This vintage inspired Sequin Crystal & Enamel Floral Necklace ($188 at Nordstrom.com) features muted pastel colors on a goldtone chain.
