Rainy season essentials usually include an umbrella, raincoat, and rain boots. You can opt to wear any type of shoe that is water resistant and will keep your feet warm and dry. However, rain boots would be the safest way to go. You never know when it might start flooding in the streets and you find yourself stuck at the office because you decided to wear some sneakers.

As necessary as rain boots are, sometimes they can ruin your outfit. Lucky for you we found some options that will not only keep you dry but are pretty chic too.
