what do you wear when its raining

[nailpolish]

i bought a sensible raincoat the other day, well more anorak tbh and dh says i look mumsy and old in it but its practical and was cheap in the sale

now i dont want to wear it!

and i hate brollies

tell him to bog off

I wear barbour jacket and a driazabone hat.
I look like an Aussie sheep farmer.

Just whacking a baseball cap on now to do the school run! I just get totally wet but don't care coz my hair doesn't frizz!

It ain't easy being a yummy mummy... always got pneumonia - but my kids friends think I'm cool

afraid i cant afford barbour

this was in the factory outlet store

i think its a mans jacket, but do i care?

NP, mine is a 'barbour style' cheapo off the market!!

I don't care either --if it is raining I prefer to stay warm and dry rather that glamourous and wet!

but can you be glamorous and dry?

that is the question

do you put the hood up?

does it have a hood cod

its the hood that gets me

Nailpolish - I have the opposite problem. I don't have anything sensible to wear when it rains (my parka is too warm on a day like today) so I end up being completely under dressed and soaking wet. My DH keeps going on at me to wear more sensible clothes and buy some outdoor clothes but I can't find anything I like and can afford.

I need a wide-brimmed hat. Dh has a fab waxed cotton one with a wide brim but it's too big for me to nick

(Umbrella is OOTQ, am buggy-pusher)

don't bother with the hood - here is what you need

cant use a brolly her either as buggy-pusher

Umberella here to. Could never wear wellies. Except at Glastonbury.

great gingerbear, apart from the colour

i need something for walking to playgroup every morning - 30 min walk there and 30 min walk back

and no brolly

so do i just wear the anorak with the hood

after all, i tell dd1 to put her hood up

chav wear regatta round here

we are more hardcore as it rains 365 days a year

I have a pink and purple waterproof coat that I bought at a horse-trials years ago. It's too long, the zip broke ages ago, and the hood is miles too big so I blunder about like a purple wet mushroom !!

Want to replace it, but can't find anything I like.

I hate brollies, someone nearly poked dd2's eye out with one the other day. i have an absolutely hideous v old waterproof coat thing, i suppose you'd call it an anorak. with optional zip in fleece. hideous. but comfy

yes thats what mine is like

has a zip-out fleece which i immediately removed as hate fleeces

LOL at 'mp3 pocket' and 'goggle wipe'

typical markies
