Rainy Day Outfits


Here on the East Coast we haven't had a nice sunny day in about a week and I have been struggling with what to wear. I want to look cute and classy but also stay warm and dry. I have tried to be creative, so here are a few outfits I have come up with.

 OUTFIT #1

Since I am not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to necessities, I did not have an umbrella for quite a while. I have been very dependent on jackets and hats alone to keep me dry. The first outfit I wore in this intense rain included leggings paired with hunter boots, a cute and soft sweatshirt, a hat, and a thick rain jacket.

I found this picture on Pintrest which is very similar to what the outfit I wore looked like. I got my leggings from the Under Armour outlet and my sweatshirt from target. Any hat works obviously but I rocked a hat I got from my University that says La Salle Golf. I also did not wear a vest instead I wore a rain jacket from Nike.

This jacket is probably pretty pricey. The only reason I have this jacket is because my coach gave it to me for a golf tournament! Below I have linked a cute and cheap rain jacket that is warm, classic, and basic.

Columbia Rain Jacket  - VERY NICE and under 50$

To add another prep element to my outfit I also wore a monogrammed necklace I got from Etsy

Monogrammed Necklace - These are usually 50-100$ but Etsy has nice necklaces under 50$ and if you buy from Etsy you are helping local businesses (yay economic growth! woo!)

OUTFIT #2

When I finally came to my senses and got an umbrella I was able to not only wear cuter outfits but also do my hair!! I wore black jeans because if they got wet the water wouldn't visibly stain my jeans for the rest of the day. I am really into black on black so I paired my black jeans with a black turtle neck.
This actually the exact picture I got my outfit inspiration from! I wore a very similar coat I got from Primark for 20$!! It is gray.

Coat - This is the coat I have but in blue. The price went up a little but just as I stated in my last post, Primark is much cheaper in store than it is online.

Also, although I do not have this umbrella I am obsessed with an umbrella I found on Amazon for only 14$!! (AND FREE SHIPPING)

Umbrella - Very classy and cute. Make a statement on the way to class or work!

Again, I wore my monogrammed necklace from Etsy!

OUTFIT #3

Although the above outfits are pretty similar to all the rain day outfits I wore, it has hit me that maybe some girls like to dress up no matter what the whether is like! I have also fallen in love with the Hunter boot and dress look! If you're looking to dress up on a rainy day, here are some suggestions!

For a more formal look
I think pairing any dress with a long jacket is A LOOK. I also like the idea of wearing a semi-formal outfit in the rain with simple hair. The simple, low pony tail is defiantly a good idea for the rain so that your hair stays out of your face if there is wind. The low pony tail is also a very classic look in my opinion.

Another less formal, but still dressy, option would be similar to this
Again, I personally would wear hunter boots with this look as well as a longer coat but a dress that is casual and comfy is a good option for an uncomfortable rainy day! I also like the idea of wearing a statement necklace to dress up the outfit a little more.

Statement Necklace - Francesca's has a plethora of statement necklaces for under 30$

I hope some of these outfits give you inspiration on rainy days! I also think looking nice on rainy days makes the day feel a little less....blah. Ya know? Below I have linked Hunter Boots! I mentioned them in my last post Winter Show Must Have's!! So defiantly check that out!

Hunters

Love,
Mary

Hello ladies! My name is Mary Eyde and I am a sophomore at a small University in Philadelphia Pennsylvania called La Salle. I am studying Political Science and hope to be a politician one day. I would describe my style as low budget prep. I have staple items in my wardrobe that every prepster has such as hunter boots, bean boots, and a few vineyard vines shep shirts; but besides that, every item of clothing I wear I try to get for under 20$! I am a broke college student with no job during the school year so I ration my money as best as I can. The way I dress is very important to me and that is why I spend most of my money on clothes. I am a strong believer in look good, feel good. I do a lot of thrift store and small mall store chain shopping to find my outfits. You'd be surprised how many Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren items I have found at the local Good Will. Hopefully you stick around for my blog journey! Love, Mary

Winter Shoe Must Haves!

We are in the middle of Winter here on the East Coast and I've been thinking a lot about show wear! I've come to realize I wear the same five shoes throughout the cold season. My most worn shoes are definitely my L.L.Bean Boots  Click the links on where to buy: LL Bean   Sperry Tommy Hilfiger I personally really like the way these boots look, although some may not. These shoes are very practical and keep my feet really warm. Recently I attended the Eagles Super Bowl Parade (Go Eagles) and the high temperature that day was 32 degrees and these shoes kept my feet warm all day. There was also a lot of mud on my boots after attending the parade and when I got home the mud wiped off the boots with little effort. Above, the boots are pictured in blue but they also come in brown. They also come in a shorter version that goes to just the ankle. These shoes are kind of expensive, going against the name of my blog, but I have had these shoes for four years and they stil...
