Sing Your Way Through Spring Showers with Stylish Rain Gear

It’s nearly impossible to look good while trekking through a storm. As soon as you feel the first drop of rain on your nose, your perfect hair falls flat and those suede boots are gone.

But fear no more! The newest trend is fashion-forward rain gear. Don’t let a little water rain on your parade – with a practical umbrella and a stylish twist on those yellow galoshes from the past, you’ll have plenty of waterproof styles to choose from.

Fashionably Functional Umbrellas

No more dragging around the family’s black umbrella that doesn’t quite fit into your locker. Auto-open umbrellas are tiny enough to slip into a backpack’s side pocket and come in a huge array of bright colours that will easily add sun to any rainy day. A bigger, but sturdier option is the clear dome-shaped umbrella that you can see through and will keep you dry from head to toe!

Waterproof and Wearable

The idea of a slick chunky raincoat has always been practical - when you're out in the rain, that is. But dripping your way across the mall whilst carrying it is a huge hassle. With Old Navy’s Jacket in a Packet, you can pull the jacket out of a pouch, which ends up being a pocket inside the jacket! Available in vibrant colours and a double-breasted, waterproof design, dancing in the rain is now both fashionable and doable.

Galoshes Are Cool

Say "goodbye" to squishy soggy socks and "hello" to triumphantly trudging through puddles with stylish rubber rain boots! What used to be a fashion no-no has morphed into the most sought after footwear of the year, coming in every colour, print and pattern possible. Trend-followers might consider the animal prints, while classic polka dots are perfect for school. Either way, slipping and sliding your way home is now a thing of the past.

Whoever claimed, “anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain” was right. It’s not only important to look good in the rain, but to feel good no matter what the weather circumstances may be.
