Summer thunderstorms usually come and go quickly, but the puddles hang out. Somehow, they become as appealing as pools on a hot day, so slip a pair of Pluie Pluie Rain Boots on your lil divers before they hop into the deep end.
Two big hoops on each boot help slip them on and off, even when they get muddy. I dig the blue stripes, but Pluie Pluie also makes a pink-striped version as well as other patterns.
Available at Belly Dance Baby for $29.
