Rainy Day Essentials
Stay dry and stylish with our favorite wet weather gear!
Whether you are facing spring showers or a winter deluge, it pays to be prepared for whatever nature is creating. But prepared doesn't mean giving up on fashion! It's easy to look stylish while you go about your rainy day - adding some sunshine to the gloom with bright boots, or keeping your phone safe during your commute with a chic waterproof bag. Whatever your style and weather patterns, we've curated our favorite rainy day essentials from brands we love to keep you fashionable and dry during that next storm.
BLUNT UMBRELLAS
New Zealand label Blunt set out to do something revolutionary: re-invent the umbrella. The result is a beautifully engineered tool that (1) doesn’t poke you in the eye, (2) can handle strong winds, and (3) lasts for years. With a Blunt umbrella, you can say farewell to disposable umbrellas, broken and abandoned on the street, and brave the elements with confidence. Available in multiple colors. ($59-$89)
PATAGONIA TORRENTSHELL JACKET
You can't really beat Pataongia for technical specs and sustainable values. Their Torrentshell Rain Coat is designed for the trails and the city and whatever happens in between. Not only is this jacket waterproof, breathable, and fair-trade sewn, but it is also packable, folding up neatly into its own pocket for easy grab and go protection. Available in multiple colors. ($149)
GORMAN 'DOT DASH' RAINCOAT
We challenge you to find a punchier raincoat print than those from Australian label Gorman. Every season, they come out with more bright prints to inject sunshine into your rainy days. We think this Dot Dash Raincoat would pair perfectly with our Bobbi Mustard boots, what do you think? ($62)
KULE 'MASON' BUCKET HAT
Literal sunshine on your head, we adore this bright and merry bucket hat from NY label Kule. This energy is perfect for both rainy days and summer sun. ($98)
HELEN KAMINSKI 'FRANCINE' HAT
With neutral colors that go with everything and a wide brim for protection from raindrops and sunlight, the Francine hat from Helen Kaminiski is a perfect wardrobe staple. Made from water-resistant Italian cotton with UPF50+ protection, the Francine is lightweight and rollable, ready to go with you on all of your merry adventures. Available in multiple colors. ($170)
CRUMPLER
Melbourne label Crumpler is all about bags that work hard and play hard, and this Strength of Character messenger bag is no exemption. Designed for all your day-to-day needs, this bag has three closure options for the main compartment, a laptop sleeve, and a "front pocket mini-office." Weather-resistant, stylish, and practical - what more do you need? Available in multiple colors. ($106) 
SEA BAGS MAINE
Handcrafted from recycled sails on the working waterfront in Portland, Maine, these unique bags add a special touch to any outfit. Pick from an array of styles and shapes, or create your own custom bag. We love the daily versatility of this Red Mariner Stripe Convertible Bucket Bag, but also lusting for one of their larger tote bags. ($120)
BOBBI BOOT
No list would be complete without our popular Bobbi boot! Available in multiple colors to suit your mood and style, our Bobbi boot is perfect for getting you through any rainy day.
Stay Merry everyone! xx
