There’s nothing so banal as talking about the weather, but for North Easterners who have suffered (I’m not being dramatic) through one of the worst winters in the books, Spring sun was a dream that seemed inevitable. Until, one remembers that March and April and sometimes May mean rain, and a lot of it. So, in other words, the weather is the topic du jour, and there’s not much to be done about it.

Who wants to move to California with me? I’m joking, kind of. In the meantime, don’t let teeming rain make you look bad, get a colorful parka or chic trench and face that grey day like the chic lady you are. Click through for ten options, and if anyone has a sublet on the beach in Santa Monica, leave it in the comments.

      Rainy days are my favorite days,too. Especially in the mountains! All the JACKETS are lovely. But that’s exactly what they are – jackets. Not a coat. Specifically, a raincoat, that is long enuf to keep your legs/slacks, dry. Their was only one raincoat viewed. IF it’s raining, the rest of the outfit is perfectly silly. There are many fashionable raincoats out there and I have 1/2 of them. They are a great fashion statement for a cool spring day. Long coat, short dress. Dressed with a silk print scarf ( it doesn’t have to be silk), it goes into an evening with style. So, I like your selection, but I’m not very happy with it. All one is going to do in those rain jackets, is get wet.

      Oops! My apologies. The headliner does say jacket, but they won’t keep you dry.
