Confession time! I am not one of those people who copes well with grey skies and clouds. Thus is why I chose to stay in California when everyone else in my family moved to a different state. I can deal with the occasional rain cloud. But I do it in my own way. My rain coat is hot pink with sequined accents. And my umbrella is the most neon shades of green and pink (thank you Marc Jacobs for getting that some people were not meant for the rain.)

While I do have the essential Burberry rain boots to get me through monsoon type storms, I prefer my heels. Granted they’re not the safest and Lord only knows how many time I’ve slipped and fallen due to my impractical yet still fashionable wardrobe choices on a rainy day. Alas, today was no exception to my personal fashion rules for inclement weather. And just as the clouds starting to cover the sun (but ironically they didn’t do anything to help cool the weather) I reached and grabbed my brightest ensemble to brighten up the dreary day.
