Rain Boots...well okay, it's not a new trend.  Like many of you, I thought it was going to be a fad.   But it's a bonafide trend.  Rain boots are everywhere from stores like TJMaxx to Bloomingdale's, from designers like Target brand Xhilaration to mid-price Hunter to upscale Burberry and Marc Jacobs.  With this Chicago weather, we will probably need them longer than we expect.  They are sensible, trendy, and weather friendly.  Pick up a pair to keep your feet dry.
