About this list:

I love the rain... I love the smell, the taste, the temperature... If I could move to Seattle in a little apartment next to Pike Place Market- I'd be a happy, happy camper... unfortunately I live in the land of Perma-Sun. Here is some awesome, charming, kitschy and fabulous rain-gear.

I know all the words to Rhianna's "Umbrella"

Brigg Umbrella. Hand fashioned since 1893. Swaine Adeney Brigg

First to recommend

Description

This umbrella doubles as a flask. Seriously.

I am imagining getting tanked on the way back from a board meeting.

Boss: "Why is FancyPants licking her umbrella?"
Boss 2: "Because she's an effing badass, that's why"

Not much can ruin my day like stepping into a hidden puddle in leather shoes and tights... maybe only spolied milk after I poured a bowl of fruit loops...

That's why I love Wellies. They keep your feet nice and dry, look delicious and preserve your good mood.

Unisex Wellies Hunter Rubber Boots

First to recommend

Description

These handsome rain boots are rom the 'original' maker of rubber boots, Wellingtton, aka Wellies. I am fond of Wellies, but with the new cheap imitation at $20, it's hard to cough up $98 but the real thing. Well, it would be easy if I didn't require so many boots. I go through them like nobody's business (dogs chew on them, yard work, etc.).

These are for men and women, though when it comes to unisex sizing, it mostly fits men. I would raise an eyebrow if I saw a guy wearing these. In a good way.

Another bubble umbrella... this one trimmed in pink. On their website they feature a rainbow of colors all under $20 so you can literally match to your wardrobe. I live in a place that gets 300 days of sunshine- so I'll just take the pink one.

No way.

This is just pretty to look at. The blue umbrella stand which empties moisture into the natural sponge. Amazing.

Design House Stockholm Umbrella black w/lt blue inside

First to recommend

Description

There are times when a safe, sedate black umbrella is best- and Hello Kitty, hot pink and Burberry nova plaid are best left at home.

This umbrella is a safe basic black with a soft light blue inside, it has enough style to separate you from the crowd without overdoing it...

Purple Bubble Umbrella

First to recommend

Description

I have always had an affinity for "bubble umbrellas" they look kind mod squad...
But they also have the ability to keep rain, sleet, and (the dreaded) drizzle away from my blowout... this keeps my do from morphing from fabulous and sleek to Jackson 5 'fro...which is good.

For under $15 too!

The Ambient Umbrella

Description

For times when a regular umbrella simply won't do... this one has a little weather/thermometer/fortune teller feature so you don't have sit through an Al Roker weather report...

AND it kinda looks like a lightsaber...
