The rain falls hard on this humdrum town...

Rain Coat: My mom
Blouse: Forever 21
Skirt: H&M
Tights: Target
Boots: TJ Maxx
Ring: Fred Flare

 
Yesterday was an unbelievably rainy day. It was raining really obese cats and dogs, it was cold, and there was no light to speak of, so no photo shoot that day. Instead, I decided that I would spend the whole day in my pajamas. It was a good call. I got a lot of things done. I updated my blog layout, played about thirty rounds of computer solitaire and practiced a few orchestra pices on my cello.

Inspired by yesterday's rain and Gene Kelly's birthday (you know Singing in the Rain?) I decided to do a rainy day themed outfit post today.


So that's pretty much it, no excessive writing today. Don't forget to follow me on my new twitter account, and my blog on bloglovin' or blogger. Also, sometime in the future I'm planning to do an about me post, but I want to talk about what you guys want to know, so ask me anything on my formspring.

  1. Love this rain coat. Where did your mom get it? I'm just realizing, my move to Boston will require more rain gear. - Katy

  6. I love the mix of colour. I did this a lot in university but since getting into law school I've had to tone my wardrobe down to look professional and/or demure. :( I miss the rainbows.
