Describe Your Perfect Date - April 25th

Anyone who has seen Miss Congeniality knows the answers to this question.  If you haven’t, click here for the clip.  Miss Rhode Island, who ends up winning the whole Miss United States pageant in this awesome chick flick comedy (spoiler alert!), says the following “I’d have to say April 25^th.  It’s not too hot, not too cold; all you need is a light jacket.” As a tribute to this moronic but memorable answer in the movie, I decided to treat you all to a post highlighting light jackets paired with rainboots for those rainy spring (not too hot, not too cold)days.

Outfit #1 - Peace and Love

Earth Day was just a few days ago so as an homage to this late April national holiday, I decided to wear my dog-print rainboots with a peace sign graphic tee, medium-washed jeans, and an olive green utilitarian jacket.  I added my worn-in, all-time favorite cross-over messenger bag to finish my laid-back vibe.

Outfit #2 – Mixed Prints

I’ve concluded over the years that stripes and prints work well together.  For this look, I paired my dog-print rainboots with a black and white striped skirt, white crewneck tee, and my cognac faux leather jacket to complement the beige color that is found in the print on the rainboots.  I also wore my coral necklace for another dose of color to accompany the rainboots.  If it is slightly raining, but this sun is shining, this outfit would work great with the weather, however I wouldn’t recommend this outfit if there is a thunderstorm.

Outfit #3 – Leather and Brights

If you have to plans for a night out, but its pouring rain, give this outfit a try.  I decided to wear my bright green Doc Marten style boots that are water resistant with faux leather leggings and a bright multicolored printed tunic.  I maintained this edgy vibe by wearing a black faux leather jacket and wearing my hair in a ponytail so my fuchsia colored hoops can be shown. This outfit is perfect for those who want to take risks with their wardrobe and like experimenting with bright colors and textures.
