April Showers, Brings Rainy-day Fashion

Spring has sprung, and hopefully, April will be the home stretch of this particularly cold and windy start to the year. So, let us embrace the April showers before May brings us flowers, by taking risks and having fun with the fashion that a rainy day brings.

Follow along for some weatherproof styles that will make you the light the forecast is missing.

MATCHING Jacket & BOOTS

Make a pop in the gloomy weather by matching the color of your raincoat and rainboots. This fun, coordinated outfit will make you look put together and bright, whether you’re sporting sweats or sophistication underneath.

Metallic raincoats

A sheen to any material adds a level of luxury to an outfit. A metallic or reflective raincoat will have you literally shining through the streets in a storm; a statement piece that speaks for itself.

LOUD RAINBOOTS

Fun patterns or colors on the feet can liven up any otherwise dull outfit or day. Footwear is the perfect place to take a risk, and a bold, unique rainboot will not only keep you dry but also keep your style interesting.

Leather look

Many synthetic and patent leathers are naturally water resistant. With plenty of styles and silhouettes in the (faux) leather jacket department, they are the perfect choice for an elevated, day-to-night coat that can resist the rain.

Umbrellas as accessories

Start thinking of umbrellas as more than just a shield from the rain. Choosing a stylish umbrella that complements your outfit can complete your overall look and signal that you put extra thought and effort into your style.

Windbreakers

As it slowly warms up, and there may be days with a slight sprinkle or mist, opt for a windbreaker. The light, wind, and waterproof jacket adds an effortless, sporty chic vibe to on-the-go looks.

So don’t let April showers cramp your style; enjoy the drizzle while it’s here. After all, changing seasons means changing outfits.
