Best Bet: Loeffler Randall Rain Booties

Trading leather for rubber, Loeffler Randall’s stylish new rain booties put your clunky galoshes to shame. With one-inch wedges and hooked laces, these kicks are cool enough for a clear-sky day ($165 at Barneys). Plus, a superlight cordless vacuum, a fragrance-filled amulet necklace, and more in this week’s issue. [NYM]
