Gaga for Galoshes

Ah, spring. For those of us emerging from the deep freeze to the reality of melting snowbanks and brownish puddles at every street corner, it isn't all butterflies and daffodils.

Splooshing in the City just got more interesting. With the economy casting its own gray pallor on the streets, what's called for is a return to those carefree after-school times. Fun up your boring beige trench with a funky pair of rainboots...

like these giraffe prints from dav Women


or these houndstooth heels


or maybe even these peacock beauties?

... hmm. Maybe not.

Would you spend your money on these rubber boots? Not for the original list price upwards of $100, we're betting. Right now Endless.com has a promo for $15 off a purchase of $75 from a select range of rain boots. Add to that their ongoing sales, it works out to a pretty good deal!

Take that, ugly old galoshes.

Yes I would definitely wear them. I would probably go with the houndstooth, but the peacock is the most exciting by far!

yeah they are a BIG trend out here in BC... must be all the rain! I will likely get a pair this year. I agree the houndstooth is what I would go with...

I plan on NOT wearing them with everything like some of the BC girls I see! hahahah!

I agree with MizzRobin - wear them with everything? They are rubber boots, after all...

ooh I like the Houndstooth one! It's currently raining where I am...they'd certainly come in handy right now.
