Rain Day #2

Another day of rain! I seem to be the only one excited about this wonderful change in weather. Only a little over a month until I see my first flurries of snow! And with the snow will come some wonderful wardrobe changes gahhh! Cannot wait.

But I am getting ahead of myself. For now, I need to focus on the up and coming month of Fall. If you live in a city where there are seasons, now is the best time to prepare for the imminent cold that is fast approaching! Jackets and coats will still be at relatively affordable prices at vintage stores and flea markets, and the selection will be greater.

Knowing this, I decided to make a quick stop into Buffalo Exchange yesterday, where I found a fantastic wool Herman Geist jacket, similar to the one below, except has two large buttons for a looser fit. Can't wait to pair it with some hunter wellies :)

Something about waking up to the rain pouring down 18 floors below just really gets me going in the morning. After living in San Diego for the last 6 years, I have not seen much sign of seasons. I emerge from my bed with one thought, "Rainboots!". Yes! I get to wear them today, and I will not garner looks of confusion as I did previously this year when I first found my wonderful Hunter boots at a flea market, brand new I might add. A girl can't just wait until the most opportune time to wear $40 Hunter boots! I wore them during sprinkles, and mists, any excuse really. But today is different. Today I will wear them in pride. Here are my vintage inspirations for surviving in the rain...
