The "Boring" Boots About to Be All Over Our Feeds This Fall
Prepare to see a surge of style flooding your Instagram feed this season as rain boots make a triumphant return to the forefront of fashion just like they do every fall. While these trusty footwear companions have long been associated with practicality, they have stepped into the spotlight as a trendy and coveted accessory. I feel like their popularity really surged when a pair of vintage Chanel rain boots became a must-buy overnight. My Instagram app was tempting me to buy them. Since then, the fashion world has embraced the versatility and charm of rain boots, incorporating them into a wide range of outfits and styles and proving that rainy days no longer need to dampen your fashion sense.
I plan to make a splash with my own rainy-day ensembles. Whether you're a devoted follower of fashion trends or simply seeking a functional yet chic addition to your wardrobe, rain boots are always a good idea, and it's time to embrace their resurgence.

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way to Who What Wear, where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, rollerblading through New York City traffic, or exploring the latest luxury vintage boutique.
