6 Rainy Day Looks If You Have No Summer Holiday Plans

So with summer coming up, we all are planning our cute little holiday outfits. You know, maxi dresses, shorty shorts, and flared skirts to mention a few! But what about those of us that are not going on holiday? It’s a sad fact but not all of us have grand holidays planned this year. But just because you don’t have an exotic getaway planned doesn’t mean you can’t create fabulous rainy day looks. So instead of eating ice cream and sitting at home pouring over your friend’s Facebook pictures of Barbados, dress up and face the summer rain in style!

1. Keep it simple with some dungarees

You can never really go wrong with dungarees especially when it comes to rainy day looks. They always look cute no matter what. Some dark blue denim or black denim dungarees will look nice and the darker colour will hide any raindrops! Pair this with some converse and a bright stripey top to add colour to the outfit. Something to complete the look nicely would be a translucent raincoat with a hood. This will add a chic touch to the look. Tie your hair back in a high pony and add some big hoop earrings for a cute, fun touch.

Sweater dresses always look cute and stylish. Because it’s summer, it’s always advisable to wear some brighter colours, even if it rains. Now if it’s a little cold you can wear it with some nude tights to keep your legs cosy. This outfit would pair nicely with some ankle boots and a long thin raincoat. You could even dress it up with a long shell necklace or a colourful, silk scarf. Or if you’re feeling brave and don’t mind wet legs, you skip the tights and wear some knee-high boots or some funky wellie boots.

Again you can pair this with a raincoat or a matching denim jacket and neon coloured umbrella!
