Fiddly brollies, be gone! There’s a better way to stay stylishly dry

Rainhat

Every morning, after I’ve made tea and fed the dog, I pick up my phone in search of wardrobe inspiration. Ignoring Instagram and Vogue Runway, I open Dark Sky, the weather app, which tells you exactly if, when and how hard it will rain, on your street. Then, and only then, do I think about what to wear.

As far as fashion goes, whether or not it’s sunny doesn’t matter. Even the temperature isn’t a dealbreaker – by this time of year you are wearing warm socks and you grab your coat whenever you leave the house. If it’s colder than you thought when you step outside, that would be when you run back in and get your gloves.
