Giveaway: Joules Rain Boots


Every morning after Sebastian has risen at some ungodly hour of the early morning slash basically still nighttime he has a little ritual that makes perfect sense. He devours his instant oatmeal, checks if Julia and Theo are awake (never -- because they are 100% human and not 80% vamp like he is), tells me to "shhhhhhhhhhhh" because they are still asleep, and then goes and puts on his rain boots. Or Julia's rain boots. Or one of his and one of Julia's - whatever combination he knows will make her the most angry and spit her usual morning dragon breath because Bash loves a good show.

Not my point. Simon has mentioned once or twice that he never gets in on the blogging giveaway/review action and has suggested that maybe a golf company might be interested in taking a peek at the Camp. Laugh. I can do you one better, Patton. Wellies. Joules recently started shipping their awesome stuff to the states (I've had the link to their scarves open for several days now) and generously sent the big kids and Simon each a pair of kickbottom rain boots. Don't think I didn't show Simon photos of the royal princes for style inspiration because I did. Let's see how he did ...


(Well first ... this picture. It was actually raining to make the photo super authentic and Julia was like "catch duh wain, Bash!!!" and Bash was like ............... "enthusiasm is my favorite.")


The kids love their boots or their "boooooooooooooo" as Bash enunciates so smartly and Simon even didn't argue too much when I asked that he not tuck the boots under his pants (?).

Vant un pair? I thought so. Joules is giving away a pair to one lucky reader (any pair! girls, boys, mens, or womens!) ... don't tell me you don't love these. Don't - because they are my favorite in a size 8.

Just Rafflecopter your way to victory and many thanks to Joules for being so kind!

  1. Well, I was dying for a pair of the Evedon ones, so I finally bought a pair of red ones as my "goodbye England" gift to myself before we moved back. But while the printed wellies (in the beagles or the navy stripes) have always turned my head, I think I'd go for classic bright yellow in the posh wellies- what's more classic than yellow wellies?!?

  3. Um... yes please. I have never had a pair and always wanted one!

    ReplyDelete
  55. Love the women's premium rain boots in black! The bow does me in.

    ReplyDelete
  56. These are very cute! I think I would selfishly have to pick a pair for myself if I win. That way I wouldn't have to hear my five beautiful children fight because one of them got a super cute pair of rain boots.

  72. My daughter really wants a pair of red rainboots. We were just talking about it today, it's serendipity!

    ReplyDelete
  73. But of course! I've always wanted a grown-up pair of rain boots. Because I'm selfish that way and my girls would only fight over who got the gifted boots if I picked a kids' pair.

    ReplyDelete
  74. So....you want me to pick just one??!? It's a toss-up between the navy stripe, pink spot and navy dot. Really, it' a toss-up between all of them but I suppose you want me to narrow it down.

    ReplyDelete

  124. Slightly embarrassed I only comment on giveaways - but you have great ones and I can't resist. That being said - half the wellies didn't show up on my page, but I'm slightly fascinated with the wellibobs. Not sure if the real-life-me-wearing version would come off very well, but they're more fun than the hunter green plain rain boot I'd probably go for.

    ReplyDelete
  125. In LOVE with the red striped pair. And it might actually rain once in a while in North Carolina, right?
