The rain has a bad reputation for ruining our fun, but this season, we’re looking at reasons to love the rain, and a few colourful pieces which will help you to make the most of stormy weather…
1. Splashing in puddles!
Who doesn’t like embracing their inner child and going for a stomp in the puddles? If you have a little one, it’s a great excuse to don your own wellies and have a good splash about!
2. The rain waters our gardens.
Put your watering cans away for another day, the rain’s here to lend a helping hand and ensure our gardens are looking bright and beautiful when the sun does show its face!
3. You get to wear cute clothes.
When else is it acceptable to wear matching wellies and waterproofs? Pairing a beautiful bright mac with a pair of glossy wellies is the perfect antidote to a grey day. Check out Barbour’s Weather Comfort collection for the ultimate in colourful jackets!
4. You can pretend you’re in a movie or music video.
Don’t pretend you’ve never done it! Our top choices are ‘Why Does It Always Rain On Me?’ by Travis, ‘Purple Rain’ by Prince and ‘Set Fire to the Rain’ by Adele – ideal for creating an epic music video, even if it is only in your head.
5. Save the laundry for another day!
The rain is a perfect excuse to put chores like laundry, putting the bins out, and mowing the lawn on hold! Result.
6. Rainbows
Everyone loves seeing a rainbow, right? We can’t have rainbows without a quick shower, so bring on the rain!
7. Finally – festivals are better when you can dance in the rain!
The atmosphere is just so much better when the rain is pouring, your wellies are caked in mud and your favourite band is playing – and getting muddy is what festivals are all about, right?
Top choices for wet weather!
