Lace Up Rubber Wellies: Snob or Slob?

I go back and forth between “snob” and “slob” with these See by Chloe Lace-Up Rubber Wellington Boots ($195). Light gray with a touch of fluorescent pink happens to be one of my favorite color combinations (if you’re traveling around Europe this summer, stop by Pinko they have some contemporary-priced finds in this color combo that are super cute!). The laces on these boots are what have me wavering. I wish the trompe l’oeil pocket that the boots have going on, on the side would have been translated into the laces. Either way they wouldn’t have a thing on Jimmy Choo’s Crocodile-Print Wellington boots, but for a rainy day I could see them being a cute option, I just don’t know that they’re worth $200.

What do you think about these Wellies?
