When it rains it pours

We've all heard of the horrible rains, thunderstorms and whatnot going on in our dear Australia. Our hearts go out to everyone who is affected by it all. Our darling Princess of Palais de Steff has assured us all that she is indeed high and dry and thereby safe from it all. Yet we can't help but want to help out a little. You know, keeping Australia dry and yet fashionable all at the same time.

You see, once the rain has gone away and one has to venture back to ones house, it can will be a tad very muddy. So, one perhaps is reluctant to wear ones new YSL boots. This is where 'Petras Palace comes in. We give you a sometimes stylish alternative to the gorgous suede boots you've got in your shoe closet. You could go the Wellington way, and no they don't have to be those flat hideously mudgreen ones. Let's see what the designers have come up with, especially for you.

Marc Jacobs

Funky rubber boot All Stars from Converse.

I realise that with the last two options, we are stretching the designer term a bit lot. However one should have options, and to each their own I suppose.

In the rest of the world, we may not have as much rain, but we do battle the elements be that wind, snow, coldness or even heat. I'm sure there must be somewhere with heat. We shouldn't be neglected in this, so I give you some other options of boots. These all by Christian Louboutin.

  4. I'm just thankful there are no CROCS pictured on this page!

    Salt stains are a big problem in Mistress MJ's part of the world.

    Which boot is most stain resistant?

    Oh Hai kabuki and Miss Scarlet!

  5. Just in the nick of time darling.

    I must say I do like the Mark Jacobs. Very Practical!

    The ground is still damp here and we are looking at more rain for the weekend... you would think we'd had enough by now...

    I'd settle for the long leopard Louboutins tho.

  6. It's the Louboutin Zebra Tall Boots for me. They are divine!

    How thoughtful of you to provide such choices for the fashion conscious Australian. I'll have a word with Liz and see if we can't get you a Dame-hood!

  7. I've gone for the black, shiny lace-up Louboutins. They are lick worthy. Not the peep toes. I have to keep my toes hidden, it's better for everyone that way.

    For more practical wet wear, I'll have the pink, heart Mark Jacobs. Camp, but fun.
