1. Invest in a good raincoat. There is nothing worse than arriving somewhere feeling cold, damp and gloomy. A good raincoat will keep you dry and never go out of style. Plus, they last for years if you take good care of them.

3. Ditch your boring, black umbrella. Would it be out of line to say these umbrellas may make you wish for rain? Maybe that’s going too far, but these designs are both adorable and made to last. Trash that bodega umbrella if you haven’t already and buy something you’ll enjoy opening.

Hautelook.com is having some great sales today, starting with Gucci Accessories, including wallets and keychains. I also just picked up a few pieces from the Lucca Couture blowout, as everything is under $20. And don’t forget to check out däv Raingear, there are some really fun patterned wellies.

Everyone knows that wellies are necessary for Glastonbury’s ever-present mud, so those are sort-of excusable. Adult onesie footed pajamas, on the other hand, are never excusable. Never: not in your bed room, not when you’re sleeping in a tent in a muddy field, and not when you could be dressing like a British It Girl while braving the mud. I’m not even going to mention the prints on these pajamas….
