On a scale of one to 10, how awful is to see rain after you have already put together a perfectly polished outfit? I would say this is a solid 10 of a miserable situation. Grabbing rain gear to add to your outfit may seem like a bummer, but it totally does not have to damper your day! Rather than having the rainy day blues, kill your look and embrace the street style accessories.
Now more than ever, there is plenty of chic rainwear to gear for the wet weather. A simple way to protect yourself from the rain is to add an umbrella—specifically a clear bubble style one. What better way to showcase an outfit than with an umbrella that doesn’t cover up your stylish look at all? This must-have rain gear offers a total all around visibility and will not clash with any colors in your clothes. If this doesn’t add a little excitement to your day, maybe this inspirational look will do the trick.
I spotted this Fashionista walking along the Brooklyn Heights Promenade during a slight drizzle. She is wearing classic black joggers that create a great base for the rest of her outfit to play up the magic. Her Calvin Klein windowpane shirt adds a nice flow to the rest of the outfit and amplifies a simple black on black look. To accessorize, this Fashionista adds her Steve Madden velvet heels for comfortable, all day footwear. She also includes a gold necklace, a gold watch and a chic pink Coach cross-body bag.
Now for the real fashion statement—her clear bubble umbrella patterned with pink flamingos. Even in the most miserable downpour, this Fashionista can turn heads. The fun and youthful flamingo pattern offers the mainly black palette outfit a quirky personality. Not only can this Fashionista showcase her already fashion forward outfit, the umbrella adds the playful touch necessary for a dreary rainy day.
So next time you wake up to the sound of rain, get excited to grab your umbrella and strut down the street in style.
