My honey and I are heading down to Seattle this weekend for Easter. We’ll be staying at the luxurious Edgewater Hotel, a romantic Alaskan lodge-style boutique hotel right on Elliott Bay next to Pike Place Market! Ominous forecasts can’t touch this excitement!
As a girl who’s all too familiar with rain (Dublin,Vancouver) I thought I’d share some packing tips for rainy climates:
Tan Trench Coat- Banana Republic Black
Leather Motorcycle Jacket- Armani Exchange
Charcoal Moto Jeans- Current/Elliott
Light Grey Cardigan- House of Cashmere
Black and White Racerback Tanks- American Apparel
Little Black Dress- Vince
The Trench is the iconic rain coat and the ultimate Classic Wardrobe Item (CWI). I also love a motorcycle jacket in the rain because the more worn and beat up the leather the better! One of the most bewildering rain dilemmas is when the hem of your trousers starts soaking up water and transporting it up to your knees. Cue the bugles: enter the skinny jean, a godsend for the rainy day city girl. Simply tuck them into some cute boots and you’re on you way!
