STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Making Rainy Days Fashionable

October 26th, 2016 at 2:00am

Hurricane Matthew recently passed through Elon University and it was the perfect opportunity to embrace rainy day fashion. Hailing from Tampa, rainy days were so typical that no one ever seemed to realize the fashion opportunity with each and every rainy day. When I moved to North Carolina, I wasn’t sure how many rainy days we would endure here, but I was honestly excited to hear that some rain would be coming our way. In fact, I was hoping to see some stylish Fashionistas make use of their cute rain clothes and strut across campus.

When I saw this Fashionista walking across campus I was so excited to finally see someone take what could be an excuse to wear sweatshirts and jeans, turn the rainy day into a fashion forward occasion. This Fashionista paired her warm flannel shirt and jeans with a fashionable, yet essential navy rain coat and matching Hunter rain boots, or wellies as known in England which is where Hunter is based. I personally love how she added a pop of color with her bright green umbrella and red flannel to combat the gloomy blues. With this outfit and sparkling smile, anyone can turn a gloomy, rainy day into an amazing one!

Have fun with rainy days and never miss an opportunity to show off your style, regardless of the weather!
