When it rains, we accessorize!
California has, once again, been drenched with precipitation. Rain, rain… go AWAY! I, for the most part, dislike the rain; it messes with my hair, wreacks havoc on the roads, but it does allow us to accessorize like never before!!!
I’ve always been a fan of bright colored ‘gloomy weather’ wardrobe pieces. If it’s raining out I, a) want to make sure I can be seen through the fog, and b) want to be a ray of sunshine among the clouds when looked at. That being said, I paired the dress with a double-breasted light blue peacoat… one of my favorite jackets. In case of rain puddles, I stepped into a pair of my favorite black-buckle boots. Lastly, I topped the look off with a hot pink umbrella adorned with slight stripes of white, green and peach.
I stayed inside most of the day, but when I ventured out… I did so in style and was a ray of sunshine for the rest of the world bundled up in black and brown.
*Please excuse my lack of "semi-glamorous appearance" today... today my motto is "Saturday's were made to stroll around looking like a bum."
