PLASTIC FANTASTIC
The Gumboot Dilemma: Wearing them keeps your cute Coach flats from getting sloshed, but puts a real damper on your slick work week style.
We found a fashionable solution.
Hailing from Brazil, Melissa is an innovative line of plastic shoes that manage to be all at once sustainable, sleek and well-designed. Just take a gander at the Joy + Alexandre Herchcovitch Oxford ($99) and Vivenne Westwood Anglomania Mary Jane ($199). We picked up a pair of the former and were tickled to find inside a perfectly-sized small pink bag for storing the shoes in should you wish to switch into those Coach flats when in the office.
Did we mention they’re also infused with a deliciously sweet scent? Now nothing will rain our parade.
