    What Do You Wear When It Rains/Snows?

    "Seems it never rains in southern California
    Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
    It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya?

    Well, it's certainly pouring this week in southern California!

    Which makes me wonder, what do the "out and about" girls on crossdressers.com wear when it rains/snows?

    Same clothes, maybe change to boots. Carry an umbrella. Waterproof mascara helps
    Put a little lipstick on you'll feel better

    Large black plastic yard debris bag with head and armholes cut out. I prefer a crew neck style along with a Walgreens plastic bag tied under my chin for a rainhood. Urban chic.

    Oh alright, not really. It depends on just how ugly it is out there. Remember I live in Seattle where rain is a way of life. I've seen girls in shorts and t-shirts toting umbrellas. Go figure. If it's way nasty, like raining sidways, then it's a long (below mid-calf) leather coat and boots, or my powder blue parka. And tights and maybe even jeans.

    Hugs...Joni Mari

    Well, I have plenty of cute sweaters (duh!), and a few cute jackets. Plus, I love my boots! If only boot season was longer. Sigh.

    Right there with you Kathi. I was shopping today and boots are sooooo on sale! I almost bought a couple of pair at nine west but I decided against it and went for heels and sandles instead because boot season is almost over

    Almost all of my outerwear are womens coats anyway so I just go to the closet and grab something. My fave is my wool peacoat.

    I love going out in rain. With a nice big umbrella you can be totally anonymous.

    Wellies are good too.

    All the Best,

    I love my black pea coat! It's very tailored and, dare I say it again, cute.

    I would get the boots, sis! I always do shopping a few seasons ahead. If you buy some classic pieces now from the winter sales, you will be ready for next year.

    Since in bad weather the only time it really effects me is between covers (house to car, car to venue, etc.). With this rainy weather here in northern Califorina too, I use an umbrella and I try real hard not to get my shoes too wet. It makes getting inside a special moment.

    Trenchcoats, Woolcoats, Peacoats, and Jackets

    One has to be ready for anything here in Michigan. My wardrobe has all the above, plus an umbrella, and boots, or should I say boobs. just a little inside joke. Please see a previous post of mine.

    Says the thrifty shopper. This is the only way I can survive. Maybe it is time for some boot shopping. Hadn't realized it was end of season time.

    I am still a frugal shopper because of necessity. And I am still a beginner here. So for rainy days, my black umbrella can be used by both of me!

    Not to be picky, but to check my fading memory....wasn't it Albert Hammond who sang that song?

    Whatever DearSweetWife would wear...I have my own bad weather boots, but we share coats, raincoats, mittens, hats and umbrellas!

    I tend to be a little more girly-flirty than she is. I claim the pink (breast cancer awareness) umbrella.

    A smart girl always packs a foldable umbrella in her purse.

    They make them small enough nowadays.....a necessity on the east coast US, and probably in the UK.

    I stay inside. I'm made of sugar and would melt in the rain.

    I have a pink quilted jacket that I wear in the winter time along with a beret and boots. It's not really enough to ward off a blizzard, but it's fine in a minor snow flurry.

    As for rain, I just always have an umbrella in the back seat of my car. Nothing special but if it keeps me mostly dry.

    I was thinking about the puffy down coat. Who knows which gender is under all that.
