Wellington Boots. While many people like to go for the sophisticated and classic blue and green style Hunter Wellies, mine are more of an ode to my childhood and the bright glossy wellies of the early 90's.
I do actually have a pair of long navy blue Hunters which I have had for years and despite mud, muck and horse are still going strong. They are however a bit of a faff to get on and off and do get incredibly warm in the summer so perhaps wouldn't be my first choice of festival boot. These however are something special.
The short boots benefit from being a more manageable size and slip on more easily for 'in and out of tent shoe requiring missions'. They come in either the classic style (more matt) or this high gloss finish and in a beautiful range of colours.
I chose this Fuchsia pink pair as the Mint ones were out of stock so my attempts at grown up sophistication were quickly forgotten as my heart took over and my mouth said "pink" to the sales assistant in Kurt Geiger.
I plan to wear these to brighten up the laborious task of sorting out our new garden while listening to Glastonbury loudly on the radio. Ankle deep in mud and loving life? You can take the girl out of Devon......
