Rainboots in Summer

I find styling rainboots a little bit of a challenge, especially in summer when shorts and boots can get ugly real fast. The other day it was pouring outside but I still needed something to do, so after a quick Starbucks run I headed to the park and snapped some pics on the boardwalk. I must say, the lighting was pretty darn good for a rainy day.

I ended up sticking to all of my basics to keep the look easy and workable. Skirts and dresses look cute with rainboots but it's shorts that can be the toughest to style.

How To Combat The Rain

Happy April! It's hard to believe how fast 2014 is flying by... I still feel like New Year's was just yesterday!

We've all heard the saying, "April showers bring May flowers!" and this year I'm actually debating whether or not it's going to rain this month or just keep snowing. Seriously, I googled it, and this was the longest winter in Wisconsin since 1936. On a brighter note, it can literally only go up from here (temperature wise, too).

If it actually rains this month (praying it does), I will for sure be donning my trench and prized hunter boots. A fun fact about me: I love when it rains. As much as I dream of a day by the pool (in other states of course considering I'm trapped in a polar vortex), I'm a rainy day aficionado.
