Summer + Rain = Shoes??

Jeez, I never know what to put on my feet when its hot AND raining. I have on closed toe heels today in nude patent and my feet are sweating like two little b*tches!

What do you wear when it rains in the summer? Closed? Do you just let your feet get wet?

These are the things that I think about all day.

The only reason I even have these patent heels is b/c someone tossed them in the bin near the registers at Marshalls and they happened to be size 7!

Re: Summer + Rain = Shoes??

I wear whatever goes with my planned outfit that day. If it's open toe, it's open toe.
I can't work my outfits around rain! Chat Icon
I am in a strappy black high heeled sandal today.


ETA- I dont' work in the city most days though- so I am in my car and then right into my office.
I am sure if I had to walk all over NYC I might change my tune!

I short calf height rubber boots that I wear and change into something else at work.
I hate walking around in wet shoes, then sitting in my office with cold wet feet.

Normally I'd do the same... or even sneakers, but I have a wake to attend after work. So I wanted something that I could commute in and wear right there. But these are SO soaked now, I think I might just buy another pair of flats or pumps to wear. Chat Icon They are THAT wet.

Was thinking about posting the same question, this morning! I was planning on wearing cream pumps (closed toe) with my tan pants - because of the rain. But I didnt like them with the pants when I put them on, so went with nude open toe pumps and just thought, oh well, guess my feet will get wet - which they did. If I was going to be out of the office today, going to other locations during the day, which happens often, I probably would have gone with the closed toes shoes, even though I didn't like the way they looked with the pants. I can deal with one trek from car to office in the rain with the open toes, but multiple treks would have made me wear more "sensible" shoes in the rain Chat Icon

I also feel, for some reason, like patent leather is "waterproof" but I'm not sure why! I always seem to turn to patent leather when it rains.

I should probably invest in rain boots!

I will usually throw on a pair of sneakers until I get into the office. If it's not raining hard, I might wear closed toe flats. But sneakers are usually it for me. I CANNOT wear flip flops or any open toe shoe in in the rain. I have a very strange thing with my feet getting wet by rain water/dirty water/wet grass...don't ask, just drives me crazy. Ugh, not to mention all the puddles and the subway Chat Icon. And Lord knows I can't wear my rubber rain boots in the summer unless I want to have a heat stroke Chat Icon

I invested in a pair of rain boots which I always forget to wear. So...to answer your question, I'm wearing sandals and my feet got wet.
Oh well.......

Re: Summer + Rain = Shoes??

I commute to the city - and never in my heels - so when it's hot I just wear flats or my sperrys. Normally i'd wear my hunters - but its way too hot ......

I won't wear sandals or flip flops to walk through the city on the filthy streets

This might sound weird (in fact, I'm sure it sounds weird) but I had a pair of rain boots but wearing them made me feel claustrophobic! I wore them once and sold them on ebay.

In the summer I wear flip flops in the rain and change when I get to my office. I dont mind wet feet, better than wet shoes all day or even worse, ruined shoes
