Rain, Rain, Go Away...

My time living all over Virginia and in Chicago...oh, and traveling around the world in my free time... have taught me to always be prepared for a little rain, so it doesn't rain on your parade! Find the cute, comfy and stylish rain apparel that works for you.

"When life gives you rainy days, wear cute boots and jump in the puddles!"
