6 Rain-Proof Fashion Trends and Waterproof Products to Pair Them With

Don’t let the rainy season steal your thunder—you can still incorporate your personal  style even underneath the heaps of  layering you’ll need to protect yourself with against the downpour.

Gone are the days when you’d have to (shamefully) walk around in a too bright, latex, outfit-ruining raincoat. Now, the beautiful thinking about maturing together with your sense of style is that you learn how to make fashion trends more flexible, allowing you to strut your stuff rain or shine.

1. Chunky Shoes

“Fashionable and functionable” is the name of the game. Chunky shoes are the prefect footwear to keep you mobile around the city, while at the same time keeping your outfit looking en vogue. The world is your runway-don’t let a few puddles keep you from strutting.

2. Baker Boy

Say goodbye to the bucket hat, and hello to its classier and sleeker cousin: the paperboy/newsboy/baker boy hat gives an elegant touch to any outfit, no matter the weather. It’s the perfect finishing touch, because it instantly adds an element of class while protecting you from a terribly damp hair day.

3. Denim on Denim

Comfortable enough to help you charge through the pour, but durable enough to protect you from getting too cold, a head-to-toe denim ensemble is the perfect outfit to opt for on days when on-foot errands are unavoidable. Not only will you be channeling Britney Spear’s iconic denim-on-denim red carpet attire, you’ll also be protecting yourself from getting doused via flimsy fabric.

4. Blazer with Jeans

Lucky for us, the dawn of the casual blazer is among us. You no longer need to be a working gal to walk around the streets of the city bundled up in a blazer. In fact, wearing it just as a fashion statement gives you instant brownie points for innovation. And on days when the rain threatens to throw off your style, a structured blazer on
top of fitted clothes will do you wonders.

5. Bulky Jackets

It’s a no brainer: There’s no better time to don that thick jacket you’ve been storing behind your closet for months than when you need a few extra layers to keep dry. The more oversized compared to your frame, the more high-fashion.

6. Cargo Pants

This may be one of my favorite trends, just because it’s incredible versatile. Not only is it very on trend right now—thanks to the 90s hip-hop revival—but it’s also 100% useful in warding off splashes on your outfit. Prior to the surge in interest in this specific piece, many construction workers would sport a pair for its durable yet movable material. We may not be building any structures, but when a girl has a mental empire to build, you can be sure that, no matter the weather, she’ll never let her clothes get in the way.
