About a year ago I started looking for a pair of leather waterproof boots that also looked stylish. It’s usually hard to find a good mix of these things and nearly impossible to get that at an affordable price. I was lucky enough to find Penelope Chilvers inclement boots on sale in summer and I am so glad I decided to grab them! I wore them here on the Oregon coast for the first time and I couldn’t be happier: they’re very cushy, comfortable and since I got the extra wide calf I can wear them with anything- skirts, leggings or wide leg jeans. I am not surprised Kate Middleton loves these boots so much (she’s usually seen wearing the model with the long tassel and I got the pull on boots just because I don’t love zippers), they’re worth every penny. You can wear them to work with a simple jeans, shirts and jacket outfit or a cute skirt that will add an element of boho chic style. Because of their weatherproof qualities (look for the word “inclement “ when shopping at Penelope Chilvers if you want the waterproof version)you can walk the dogs, wear them in the rain or snow, go horse riding or even gardening (years later after you’re quite done with them aesthetically). It’s quite hard to find a collar style in comparable quality on a lower budget but I would definitely look at Ariat, Söfft & Timberland this season (all the similar styles are linked in the post).
