Rainy days are no fun at all. But if you have a good raincoat, it truly makes all the difference. Not only will you feel just a little more grown up knowing that you’re not traipsing around campus in some soggy fleece spring jacket, but you can rest assured that your raincoat is giving fashion and utility. They really don’t make raincoats like they used to.
Sure, there’s nothing like a classic yellow raincoat, but if you don’t want to feel like Paddington Bear, there are options! Whether you’re looking for a belted trench for a rainy date night or a packable, perky parka for festival season, there are so many ways to up your raincoat game. Most importantly, you want to find a raincoat that is actually waterproof, so it’s worth shelling out just a little more dough than you might usually in the name of staying dry. And you want it to be not too heavy, especially for spring’s April showers, when it’s nasty outside, but also pretty warm. You need to breathe under all of that rubberized cotton if you want to stay cute. The spring raincoats here all fit those bills, so all you really have to think about is what color and length you want to commit to this season.
