Looks for Rain

The rainy season is here! (Well for most of the 50 states) I know rain wear can be a downer, but with a few tips from me you can look hot even while its all wet outside.

The first outfit is for those of use who want a funky flare. The first thing to grab attention are the green boots. They are a solid color which makes it easier to match up with other more busy pieces. The nostalgic Tale Spin shirt beings a pop of bright blue. I layered it on top of a grey polo to make it warmer. Next, a black water proof jacket, a green scarf, and the brown umbrella to keep you warm and dry! Lastly, a pair of blue jeans that act as a neutral to bring them all together.

This next look is a preppier way to keep warm and dry. A pair of grey corduroy pants to start off. The brown color of the boots pulls in the brown leather jacket. The argyle sweater with the great graphic is layerd on top of the grey polo shirt. The graphic on the sweater is a good way to get the pop and trend of a graphic without going overboard or making it look juvenile. Lastly, the wool cream scarf to match the sweater and the basic black umbrella that wraps up a classic look to keep you warm and dry.

The last outfit is for those femme lesbians out there. This look was actually inspired by the umbrella. The two fabrics, textures, and the bow give a regal yet Victorian feel. The floral rain boot gives a great piece of pattern to a solid colored look. A pair of skinny jeans fit easily into the boot and keep you from having the water creep up the denim all day long. The white ruffled shirt is perfectly framed by the low v-nceked, black and grey blazer. The cut of the blazer as well as the ruffle shirt really add to the Victorian look inspired by the umbrella. Then to finish it up the floral patterned earring and dusty rose scarf ties in with the boot.

So keep warm with layers and dry with a fun umbrella and rain boot. Enjoy the winter seasons ladies!
