Welcome to Florida, when rain and thunderstorms are not a matter of “if” or “when,” but more like a matter of “how long” and “how bad?” Anyone native to our great state knows that it is completely routine to have a bright, sunny day interrupted by dark storm clouds and rainstorms reminiscent of the Vietnam scene from Forrest Gump.





We Florida residents inevitably have to therefore resort to a “dress as-if” mentality when it comes to choosing every single one of our outfits during the Summer, which here lasts approximately nine months. Not only do we have to dress so as to stay cool in the oppressive heat, which meteorologists have termed “Devil’s Ball’s Hot,” but we have to prepare for the seemingly unavoidable afternoon deluge.

For the record, as we’re writing this, it is raining for the SECOND time today, and it’s not even 2:00 p.m. We’re shooting for a hat trick and it’s not even tea time. That’s how we can assure you that it is necessary to have some inspiration as to what you should wear on a day that resembles Swingin’ London, minus the world-class culture and unnecessary vowels in your words (or is it “wourds?” ) So we’ve put together some looks to try on our next rainy day, which at this point looks to be today at 4:00. Enjoy.
