red and white polka dot wellies

(via Cath Kidston)

These wellies are the archetypes of rubber boot perfection, in my mind.

I had a pair just like them when I was about four. My Australian cousins, visiting from afar, brought them to traverse the wet and cold wilds of Canada. They left them behind for me.

I have been searching for the perfect adult sized pair ever since, but every time I find them, they are far too expensive :(
