The Glastonbury wellie trend loved by festival's best-dressed celebs
The final day of Glastonbury Festival is here, but the fashion statements are far from over. Yesterday, Worthy Farm was graced by numerous celebrities, with our best-dressed favourites all sporting one common accessory – ankle-length wellies. These Chelsea boot-inspired wellies were seen on everyone from Billie Piper and Lily James to Daisy Edgar-Jones at this year's Glastonbury, solidifying their status as a festival must-have. The popular choice appeared to be Barbour's Black Wilton Chelsea Wellington Boots, currently available for £55 at Next, or £54 on Amazon while stocks last. According to the Mirror, these ankle-length wellies strike the perfect balance between style and practicality. Unlike full-length wellies, which can cause overheating in high temperatures, an ankle-length pair offers comfort and coolness while still safeguarding your feet from mud. Plus, they're much easier to slip on and off when it's time to retire to your tent at the end of the day. The Chelsea Wellington Boots also effortlessly complement any outfit, functioning just like a regular pair of ankle boots. They can be easily paired with anything from midi skirts and mini dresses to a simple pair of shorts or jeans. Billie Piper opted to pair hers with an oversized green waterproof jacket and black micro shorts underneath, flaunting her bronzed legs while staying warm and dry. In contrast, Lily James chose sporty white drawstring shorts, a beige crop top and a quilted bomber jacket to complement her ankle-length wellies. Daisy Edgar-Jones traded the Barbour's version for a pair of Hunter Original Rubber Chelsea Boots, currently discounted from £145 to £58. One day, she channelled 00s Alexa Chung, pairing them with simple wide-leg denim shorts and a vintage-style satin camisole top. On another occasion, she chose a flowing white midi dress and a raffia shoulder bag, demonstrating the versatility of the wellies. The Barbour Chelsea Wellington Boots are available in four different colours including black, navy and olive green, while Hunter's Original Rubber Chelsea Boots come in either black or ivory. If you're looking to add a vibrant pop of colour with your wellies (it is festival season, after all), then the Bobbi Ankle Wellies from Merry People (£89.95) are perfect. They're available in a range of bright colours including yellow, bright pink, rust and burgundy, with a total of 16 different colours to choose from. While ankle-length wellies are clearly a popular choice for summer festivals, they're also quite handy for daily use. They can be worn for dog walks, family days out in the countryside, or simply to keep your feet dry during your winter commute. We'll certainly be adding a pair to our shoe collection.

Glastonbury's best dressed celebs are all wearing one specific style of wellies
Glastonbury has set a new festival fashion trend this year, with celebs like Billie Piper and Lily James all spotted wearing the same pair of £55 ankle length wellies The final day of Glastonbury Festival is upon us but that doesn't mean the fashion looks are slowing down. Yesterday saw countless celebrities making an appearance at Worthy Farm, and all of our best-dressed favourites had one item in particular in common – a pair of ankle length wellies. The Chelsea boot-inspired wellies were spotted on the feet of everyone from Billie Piper and Lily James to Daisy Edgar-Jones at this year's Glastonbury, cementing them as a festival essential. The main pair of choice seemed to be Barbour's Black Wilton Chelsea Wellington Boots, which you can pick up for £55 at Next right now. The ankle length wellies are the perfect combination of stylish and functional. Unlike a full-length pair of wellies, which can make you way too warm when the temperatures are high, an ankle length pair lets you feel comfortable and cool whilst still protecting your feet from any mud. Not to mention they're much easier to pull on and off when you're ready to crawl into your tent at the end of the day. The Chelsea Wellington Boots are also easy to style with any outfit, working just the same as a regular pair of ankle boots. You can easily pair them with everything from midi skirts and mini dresses to a simple pair of shorts or jeans. Billie Piper chose to wear hers with an oversized green waterproof jacket and a pair of black micro shorts underneath, showing off her tanned legs whilst still being warm and dry. Lily James, on the other hand, opted for a pair of sporty white drawstring shorts, with a beige crop top and a quilted bomber jacket to go with her ankle length wellies. Daisy Edgar-Jones swapped the Barbour's version for a pair of Hunter Original Rubber Chelsea Boots, which are currently on sale down from £145 to £58. She channelled 00s Alexa Chung one day, teaming them with some simple wide leg denim shorts and a vintage-looking satin camisole top. Another day she opted for a flowing white midi dress and raffia shoulder bag, showing just how versatile the wellies are. The Barbour Chelsea Wellington Boots come in four different colour options including black, navy and olive green, whilst Hunter's Original Rubber Chelsea Boots are available in either black or ivory. If you want to bring a fun pop of colour with your wellies (it is festival season, after all) then these Bobbi Ankle Wellies from Merry People (£89.950 are ideal. They come in a whole host of bright colours including yellow, bright pink, rust and burgundy, with a grand total of 16 different colours to choose from. Although ankle length wellies are obviously a top pick for the summer's festivals, they're also pretty useful for your everyday life, too. You can wear them for walking the dog, for a day out in the country with family or even just to avoid soggy feet on your winter commute. We'll definitely be adding a pair to our footwear roster ASAP.
