Hours before the year 2011 knocks on our doors.

Are you ready?

Ehem, shoe-wise that is...

Well, I know what pair I'm gonna be wearing to tonight's big bang party!

Yepeeeeyyyy!!!

It's here! It's here!

I didn't expect it to come THIS year considering the holiday frenzy on the post and all but SHE's HERE!!!

Don't you just love?

TILLER...

A fabulous wedge bootie...taupe, thank you very much!

I should also say, Thanks Nicole!!!

That was quick!

It is beautiful on the feet...fabulous!

I believe I will be strutting on the streets tonight on my 4-inch platform heels. Stacked, mind you.

I'm wearing it with my fave pair of jeans but these beautiful pair shall be sashaying on higher grounds with my long ivory gown come January...it would be perfect!!!

A HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE indeed!

Go go go to FivebyFive on both Multiply and Facebook.

You can feast on more there. I am pretty sure you will find your perfect match...matches. hehehe...or should I say, HO-HO-HO!

Will be taking more photos of the Tiller with my ivory gown soon, on site. Next week. Too stoked.

Thank YOU Boss!

Way too cool.

So where do I begin?

I can't even specifically remember where it all began. Ahhihi

Like a lifetime...the quest for the perfect wear for rain and flood. But no plain red or black rubber boots for me please, thank you very much.

Started many many years ago when my town was hit with the worst flood ever. I discovered walking in them rubber boots took any cares away. Rain had been bad the past years but I still didnt get my own rain boots.

Many many years ago I discovered Wellington Hunter boots. Rubber, practical and fashionable. But alas they were only available abroad. Although some Wellies have found their way in the Philippines but still they don't carry the plain black. Scroll down a few entries of my blog and you will see which style I had been on the hunt for. I didnt find them Wellies.

But I found BAJA!

The word literally means 'flood' in English.

Alas, a locally made rubber boots for them rainy days when you just can't help but go go and go!

Rubber, practical, fashionable and snakeskin. Plus it is locally made. I actually prefer to buy local. It is comfortable! A 100% waterproof!

And it's WEDGE ladies and gentlemen!!!

Isn't it fabulous?!

I do hope more designs will be available soon. We need boots like these. I love that they are locally made. Are we ready for them fab rubber rain boots? Of course we are! And we just simply need them in this tropical weather of ours that have lately been very unpredictable. So ok, it's not all rainy days that you find people in rain boots. But with designs like these, it could just be a matter of time actually. Wouldn't it be cool to be commuting in the city in them boots? Running for the jeepney or taxi would be a breeze. I could also keep these handy in the car just in case the skies decides to give us some major rain. And hey, stepping into them coffeeshops in these snakeskins would just be way too cool!

Find them here!

Thank You Boss for letting me find them!
