These Boots Are Made For Walkin'

By Dgmommy @dgmommyblogger
This past Sunday was possibly the very best weekend day our family has had together... well, possibly ever. We walked the grounds of The Vyne, a historic (an historic in UK English) Tudor mansion on something like 14 acres. Morgaston Wood is the beautiful forest that encompasses much of the landscape. Along our nearly 5-hour walk we discovered a variety of wild mushrooms, conkers, a huge swan along with other water foul, and heard the calls and songs of numerous birds.
Another discovery was that it was incredibly muddy. The kids were all set in their wellies... After nearly two months in England, I'm starting to pick-up the lingo. Rain boots are Wellingtons, Wellies for short. However, my husband and I were not so prepared. In the 10 suitcases that moved us over, shoes were heavy and bulky, so we each brought only two pair and neither of us included boots for messy weather.
So, I've gone "window" shopping... virtually. Now, I'm not normally shoe crazy, I rarely own more than 10 pair to cover all the seasons, but upon yet another discovery, that of www.brantano.com, I think I've got a mini Imelda Marcos brewing inside of me! They have shoes for men, woman and kids. Want to see what I'm crazy about?
I started with the Wellingtons, of course; but couldn't stay focused. What I really, really want are these:

Then, I got back on track; who knew rain boots could be so cute?!!

These would work better when I want to wear my black jacket, purple hat and matching scarf.

But then again, so would these. What's a girl to do?

And of course, since I left all my heels behind and have every intention to hit the London theatres...

Now, I'll need a sassy dress and bag to match...

 And I do a lot of walking even in mild weather on average days...

I have a thing for red...

That was the most fun shoe shopping I've done in years!! All while The Boy naps. I had to stop because it's nearly time to pick up the girls from school! My husband is on his own.
I love technology... and apparently shoes! Obviously, I'll have to narrow it down to a pair of boots and then one cute pair of shoes. Which would you choose?
