Polka Dotted Rubber Boots

It was just one of those mornings where I knew EXACTLY the look I wanted to achieve, but when I looked in the mirror, it was completely NOT the image I had hoped for. You see, when it snows (or rains), I am highly excited ONLY because that means I can pull out my cute polka dotted rubber boots. Today, they were not gellin' with any of the outfits I put them with. Yes, I realize some people buy shoes to match an outfit, NOT ME, I buy my outfits around my shoes.

And this morning my closet failed to coordinate with my polka dotted rubber boots.

I noticed the time I normally leave for work was quickly approaching, and every single thing I pulled out to wear was NOT it. I was frantically trying on everything that would give me warmth, yet a sassy artsy edge. I gave up on trying to match the boots. (tear. sniffle.) I settled for black pants, a sweater, and Ugg-like boots. Clearly, I needed to spend a little bit more time on it because I am NOT happy with the choice I decided to leave my house in. (I soon remembered why I haven't worn these black pants in 5 years.)

When I left my house, the higher power of fashion sense that exists among us tried to get me to start over as well because....that's right...I slipped and fell as I walked to my car. I not only just slipped, but I fell down. I stood up, brushed off my shame and looked around to see if anyone was laughing at me. (Cause really, if I would have seen someone fall like this...I would be laughing.) All I could think to myself was....

.....this wouldn't have happened if I was wearing my polka dotted rubber boots.
