Fab February: Rainy Day Outfit Ideas

loose waves - bride hairCute rainy day outfits with red jacket and warm hat

Today's Fab February is looking ahead to the warmer rainy days of spring, which I am sure are only days away. (After, of course, the latest cold front passes then I am positive it will be spring). So looking ahead to those beautiful days when you will still need to dress warm, but not polar vortex warm, here are a few items to have on stand-by in your closet:

1. Cozy Knits. This has not changed from my winter weather post, however now you may not have to wear 4 layers of thermal underwear underneath your sweater. You can just be cozy in the sweater worn all by itself.

2. Thick Leggings. No leggings are not pants, but they can be worn underneath your long cozy sweaters. Just make sure the sweater comes down to at least mid thigh if you are planning on wearing leggings and no pants.

3. Rubber Boots. Get rid of those clunky winter boots and grab your bright yellow rubber boots! Or riding boots. They come in all sorts of colours and patterns nowadays so pick which one is your favourite, or a have couple to choose from. Practical and pretty.

4. Warm Wool Hat. You can ditch your full face mask but having a warm hat, even if it is just in your bag, is a good thing to have in the early spring. Especially because it does get cooler at night.

5. Spring Jacket. This one is my favourite! You no longer must look like the Stay-Puffed Marshmallow Man. There are so many wonderful spring coats that are waterproof and warm that you can just go shopping for ages in the nice warm malls while waiting for spring to arrive.


I hope you enjoyed this post! It marks the beginning of a spring hair, makeup and outfit trilogy. So hopefully this lifted your spirits and gets you looking forward to more Fab February and to spring!

New Year's Eve Makeup: Kim Kardashian Style

New Year's Eve is the perfect day/night to sport sparkling silver eye makeup, and who better to look to than Kim Kardashian. Eyes: 1. Prep your eye with a base.

Summer Lace OOTD and Natural Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's OOTD is my favourite summer look. Lace, loose waves, and a natural makeup look. It was nice and warm today so I brought out one of my favourite dresses. It is from American Eagle, and was given to me by one of my friends a few years ago. I like that it is strapless as when I am outside enjoying the sunshine I don't have to worry about awkward tan lines! I went with a natural and glowing makeup look today, and I even filmed it for you! You can watch the video below. It is inspired by the gorgeous Gigi Hadid. xx Jess Instagram: jessicakinnari
