Many thanks to Rais for running one of the most entertaining SWD challenges to date. I have the dubious honor of carrying on the Challenge tradition, and I chose to take inspiration from the season...
Imagine: April showers came last month and for some of us it seems they never left. It's now May and the spring air is supposed to be filled with the scent of tulips in bloom and the sound of squirrels emerging from a long winter's hibernation. Instead, it's thick, wet and suffocating. It's raining, and it shows no signs of stopping.
Alas, the fridge is low on cow juice and you've got no choice but to head out your local overpriced convenience store - their inflated prices are only made worse by the fact that the owner has a habit of casting judgmental looks on your distressed, overlong shirts and jackets with extraneous dangly bits. You try to tell yourself he's jealous, but you can't help the feeling that he somehow just knows your fit that day only got a few pity thumbs on WAYWT.
This errand must be completed - but how? What will you reach for that'll keep you stylish and bone dry in the face of the urban/sub-urban/rural environment that so desperately wants to enter your pores? Norwegian Rain or She Brings The Rain? Engineered Garments or Overengineered Garments? Gore or waxed cotton?
As always, an entry can be anything from a story to an outfit grid to a photo of you wearing your vintage Patagonia in the great outdoors. No matter the entry, it should should keep to the theme of rainwear. Bonus points for pics featuring actual rain.
Entries will be taken from now 'til May 20.
I hope i'm doing this right
