Adrien: Monsoon Season.

What the crap with this weather. While I'm glad we didn't get a hurricane I sure would like to see the sun eventually. On Friday morning it was pouring down rain and it's a bit of a hike from the parking lot to my building, so I dusted off my Hunter rainboots and the resulting outfit cracked me up. Why not take photos of this mess? Sure:

I'm wearing my Everlane Heavyweight striped tee which, while not the most flattering piece of clothing in my closet is basically perfect at being exactly what it is: a boxy breton style top best worn over skinny jeans. I love it. They also have a new Boxy Striped Tee which of course I want because why wouldn't I? It looks cute on Grechen. Everlane totally has my number.

Ha, I look like I should be grouse hunting or something. I'm wearing my much loved Downtown Field Jacket (Downton Field Jacket? I KILL ME.) and my new Cambridge Satchel twist lock bag. I promise there isn't a dead bird in there. The medium oxblood bag isn't in stock right now, but this little wine crossbody at J.Crew would be a very nice substitute. Or, just get Marianne's bag.

So tiresome how I keep wearing this Cluse La Bohème watch and Beaded Cone Pendant Necklace. I will try to mix it up one of these days. No promises, though.

My boots are classic green Hunter wellingtons like all the college girls wear now, though I will say they've been a solid purchase. I've had them for five years and they've held up through rain, snow and mud. In the winter I keep them in my car to wear before/after muddy bike races. Hunter has gotten very fashionable and now offers a glossy finish and fancy patterns and colors. Whatever works for you crazy kids. I only wear mine when I absolutely have to but I do enjoy watching the students clump around in them any time the skies look vaguely threatening.
