I love rainy days. And I love that a rainy day doesn’t have to mean a bad hair day and soaked clothing. Hunter boots have really opened up the world to a fashionable wellie that can be styled up or down. In the spring, I love putting boots with shorts or a shorter skirt/dress.

Make a distressed denim short more polished with a structured blazer, but maintain the casual feel with a graphic-T. I didn’t intentionally match my purse to my shoes; in fact, I try hard to NOT do that, but it happened to be the bag I had, so I went with it and it works for me. Sometimes “mistakes” or “just go with it” moments make a happy turn out!

Blazer (Ralph Lauren, also at Lord and Taylor), Shorts (Levi’s), T-Shirt (JCrew), Boot (Hunter), Purse (Lauren Ralph Lauren, similar Ralph Lauren)

Little tip: these are, again, youth size rain boots. They are another cheat for the small-footed-folk.
