Rainy Season Clothing Essentials

After a summer that seemed to overstay its welcome, I knew that it was only a matter of time before the rains would come in. And when they did, I knew they'd be ready.

Before anything else, I would like to say that my sartorial taste takes great pains to stay within the field of trying not to look stupid. As broad as it sounds, a quick look at many of my old photos will attest to how easy it is to fall into the opposite. Whether that makes me a credible source of style is debatable, but hey, I'd like to think that there's a lot of crazier things out here on the internet. 

So without further ado, here's an idea on things to wear during the rain days. 

1. Parka - In this case, the fabric isn't waterproof, but the camo pattern keeps me from looking all drenched when caught under the rain. I've been on this parka thing in recent months, keeping a good set in a small rotation.

2. Dark Denim - I'm no denim purist, but I do favor darker shades in times of rain. They hold up better than a pair of chinos would, especially when its raining hard. 

3. Boots - Just because wet feet aren't fun.

So there. Nothing ground-breaking, just a hopefully acceptable response to what the weather's been throwing at us lately. Stay safe and dry, everyone!
