Rainy days are becoming my new favorite. I actually avoided buying a rain jacket for the past two years because I was convinced the second I purchased a jacket it would never rain again (yes I know it’s a little crazy). I broke down a couple weeks ago and purchased my new rain jacket, something about walking Stanley in the cold rain in a sweater just wasn’t working for me anymore.

Now, we have matching jackets and go on morning walks in the rain! It is just about the cutest thing you’ll ever see. You can check out his adorable jacket and follow along on his adventures here.

A good rain jacket has also been the number one item missing from my packing list. Always, always, always pack some sort of rain jacket when you are traveling. I don’t know how many times I have bought a poncho or just stayed indoors on a trip because it was raining so hard.

Investing in a good rain jacket is super important which is why I went with this one from Lands End. When I saw the yellow I just had to have it! The color is definitely bright, but it is such a classic look that I think it works with my closet. Bonus: this jacket makes everyone around smile because it’s so bright.
