rainboots

so the snow is starting to melt away in nyc today which means massive puddles everywhere.

my choice of shoes when it rains or snows is a good pair of rainboots. im not a fan of the snowboot look...*shake head*
i actually picked up a cheap pair from a random store at the manhattan mall about 2 years ago and they've been good to me but i feel like now i want a real NICE pair.

i first feel in love with hunter boots after my old roommate got a pair. she's floral designer and scored herself a pair for work purposes.
i love the tall, slim look that they have. no bells and whistles. simple. classic.

but let's face the facts. $115 for a pair of shoes that you only wear on&off depending on the weather....it's sortof hard for me to swallow.
but thank god i have a friend who works in retail and has access to these! if she didnt i dont think i would even contemplate purchasing them.

so now it comes down to color.
i am a lover of all things RED. i love the color of how vibrant it is. this might sound weird but i feel like it's a color that has life behind it!

so while doing my daily blog surfing i came upon a picture emily over at cupcakeandcashmere looking oh-so-lovely in her red pair:

dont they look fabulous?!?!!!

as much as i covet this...i think it's more practical for me to own the black or navy pair.
esp since i usually wear my red burberry trench when it rains.

i'll update on what i end up getting :)
