5 Favorites {no. 9} Rainy Day edition

Well, here we are on the last day of April (can you believe it?) and it is a very, very rainy day here in NYC. But we all know that April showers bring May flowers, so let's focus on that, shall we?

Here are five of my favorites for a rainy day:

{1} a quality pair of rain boots

I received my Hunter boots as a Christmas gift a few years back, and let me tell you - they are just wonderful. My feet are always warm and dry, no matter how large the puddles (and they've been tested!). I actually wear them year-round, with liners as snow boots (the streets get so slushy here in the city after a snow that you really need something waterproof). 

{2} a sturdy umbrella

Need I say more? :)

{3} a fabulous rain coat

A rain coat is great for some added protection. I bought one at a Columbia outlet a few years back and have had great luck with it. Mine is white, but a fun pop of color always brightens up the gloom!

{4} reading

Whether it's a great book, a great blog post, or your favorite magazine, rainy days are great for reading.

{5} a romantic comedy

Perfect timing for a stay-at-home date night, complete with a movie! One of our favorites is You've Got Mail. Tell me you've seen it.
