Stylish London people! What footwear are you wearing if it's wet?

We have been to London the past two Easters and the weather has been nice and dry so I just wore trainers. However we arrive on Easter Sunday for a week and the weather looks wet 😭 I'm thinking my feet will be soaked walking about in the rain. What footwear are you wearing and I can hopefully buy similar when we are there? Thanks!

@tobee I'm bringing my Russell and Bromley platform trainers to wear at night. Though I am cautious in them as I went over my ankle in them one night and fell down some stairs when I was wearing them with a long maxi dress. The bruising on my foot and leg was spectacular!

Ooh no! Sorry to hear that. Bad luck!!

Thanks all. I'll maybe not bring my wool coat and just wear my trench and pack my raincoat. @Camdenish I am definitely not a roadman although my son looks like one in his tech fleece clothes.

Good decision re the coat! I also live near Glasgow and I am in London regularly for work - I always wear a thin coat as it feels at least 10 degrees warmer than home!! I usually wear my white FitFlop trainers or these chunky boots from John Lewis - comfort is key! Have a great time! 😁

Wish I'd known this two weeks ago😱I've bought a new pair - they look a bit stiff and new, I was going to keep the old ones for gardening - but they are going to get a new sole now - might use the new ones for gardening instead!

Here they are! The elastic means they are easy to get on and off and are incredibly comfortable! https://www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-anyday-purcie-leather-soft-elastic-chelsea-boots/p110826865
