Rainy days can be a drag. When the weather’s gloomy and wet, it’s easy to feel like there’s no point in doing much of anything. But don’t let bad weather get you down! There are plenty of ways to make rainy days fun, and we’re here to give you some outfit ideas for those rainy days where you just want to curl up with a good book or take it easy at home.
First things first: throw on some comfortable clothing. We recommend wearing a pair of leggings that you can lounge around in, or even sweatpants if you really want to be cozy. If you’re not into leggings or sweats, try pairing jeans with a cute sweater or lightweight jacket. The important thing is that whatever you choose should be easy and comfy so that when the rain starts falling, you can sit back and relax without having to worry about your clothes getting wet.
Outfits to wear on rainy days
True story: I moved back to the East Coast from Los Angeles a couple of years ago, and for my first month here, it rained almost every day. Coming from a place where it typically rains once in a blue moon, I was thoroughly unprepared. Before the bulk of my wardrobe arrived, I was armed with a denim jacket, and the closest thing I had to rain shoes was a pair of Everlane loafers. I felt like a fool surrounded by prepared east-coasters in goulashes and anoraks.
So it got me thinking about how I can pre-plan for rainy days in the future—while still looking cute (naturally). Fittingly, I took to the internet and researched the rainy-day style of street-style stars while out and about when the forecast was less-than-stellar during fashion month. The results of my research? A crop of fresh outfit ideas for the inevitable string of rainy days to come.

Cute Outfits for Rainy Summer Days
If you’re the kind of person where a storm just ruins your whole day, don’t worry: It’ll all be okay. You can still wear some super cute outfits—complete with rain boots, an umbrella, and jacket—that might make you actually look forward to wet weather. But if you’re like me and love those gray, rainy days (I mean, I’m from Florida where it downpours at, like, 3 p.m. every day during summer), then I’m sure you don’t need any convincing that you can still make the most of your outfit.

There are so many routes you can go with your outfits, whether you want to keep things sophisticated in a classic black raincoat or go for a more eclectic or sporty look. Obviously, your clothing choices also depend on how hard it’s actually coming down or if the forecast will clear up later, but if you’re stuck thinking of cute rainy day outfits, we rounded up 18 here for you so you can stay dry—and look super stylish at the same time.

THIS ALL-WHITE ENSEMBLE
Vinyl Crop Smock Colorblocked Raincoat
HUNTER BOOTS
Yes, I know that white might not be the best color to wear when it’s raining (it might get see-through when wet), but hear me out: If it’s just lightly drizzling outside, and the forecast shows that it’ll clear up later just go for it! A white tank and jeans will look so good under a clear vinyl raincoat.
