How To: Dress For Spring Showers

We suffer some crazy weather during the Springtime – with blazing sunshine and blue skies one minute followed by wind, rain, hail and even snow the next! Don’t get caught out by inclement weather conditions, take note of these top tips for surviving Spring in style, with the best cover up coats and most weather-proof boots:

  1. Pack a Jacket

Whether you go for a waterproof parka or a full-on raincoat, it’s only the very brave (or the very foolish) who leave the house without a jacket in Spring! Even if the sun is shining it’s a good idea to have a fold up fold-able rain coat in your bag just in case.

  1. Be All Right in Tights

There’s no reason why you can’t wear pretty new season dresses and skirts. Just add tights for extra warmth and off you go! Patterned tights will look great with an on-trend button-down denim skirt.

  1. Bootie Call

Booties aren’t just for babies! Just below the ankle boots are a great stop gap shoe for when showers make sandals and ballet flats impractical.

  1. A Wearable Welly

If it’s raining cats and dogs then only a waterproof wellington boot will do – but you don’t have to watch your style points wash away in the storm! There are wellies to suit every style now, from quirky patterned boots to celebrity-favorite Hunter wellies. 

  1. Hat Hair, Don’t Care

Spring showers and quick changes in weather conditions aren’t good news for your ‘do. Why not style out Springtime frizz with a kooky hat instead? A trucker or snapback looks casually cool over a ponytail, or pop a fedora, trilby or floppy hat on over a side plait – sorted!

  1. Style It Out with a Scarf

The right scarf can add just the right element of extra warmth on days when it’s not as warm as it looks. A wool or cashmere shawl-style scarf will be warmest, and you can fold it down and pop in your bag if the sun gets stronger.

  1. Under My Umbrella

If there’s nothing else for it but to hide under an umbrella, at least make it one that you’re happy to show off. A quirky umbrella is a great way to show your individuality.
