I’ve been living in Pittsburgh for the past few months, and though I love being with my family and friends I grew up with, I have a tough time with the incredibly gloomy weather here. Really, seeing the sun in the winter feels like a rare occurrence in the city. It’s also not uncommon for a seven-day forecast to include multiple thunderstorms. But with a pup, staying inside amid a shower isn’t an option. As such, I rely on good-quality rain gear to see me through strolls around the block. But lately, I’ve noticed a lot of my waterproof looks aren’t super stylish — and I’m on a mission to change that before spring rolls around.

The one chic rainy-day look I already own is Hunter’s fire-engine red puffy mules. Since getting my hands on them a month or so ago, I’ve worn them at least once a week for quick dog-walking outings as well as trips to the grocery store. Alongside a khaki trench coat and neutral sweatpants, the shoes are so striking. And though I do have a few practical rain jackets in my collection, I’m on the hunt for something fun and mood-boosting (because dreary weather can really bring me down). Hailing from its Spring/Summer 2025 collection, Prada’s bright, sunny yellow iteration is right up my alley. How could it not put a little pep in my step on a dark, rainy afternoon?

Ahead, I’m breaking down the cute rainy day looks I have my eye on. Might as well face the not-so-pleasant weather in style.

Prada

Re-Nylon Drawstring Hooded Rain Jacket

$2,150

As much as I’d love to style this drawstring jacket atop a flashy sequin dress (as seen above and on the runway), something like a long hoodie and leggings will probably be my go-to.

Kassl x Tretorn

Eefje Rubber Rain Clogs

$180

These olive green clogs from Kassl and Tretorn’s collab are so cool, I’d also wear them on a sunny afternoon with an oversized button-up and relaxed jeans.

Bloomingdale's

Cheetah Print Umbrella

$40

After spotting Millie Bobby Brown out in London carrying a leopard print umbrella, I can’t help but want one too now.

L'Agence

Safiya Transparent Raincoat

$650

This hot pink porcelain toile print feels fresh and unexpected on a rain coat. Plus, it doesn’t need much styling — a tee and casual jeans will do.

Hunter

Madison Mule

$90

Above, my current favorite shoes. They’ve added a burst of color to every winter outfit.

Canada Goose

Vancouver Rain Boot

$550

I never knew I needed pastel blue rain boots until now. I’d team these with a colorful jacket — perhaps a vibrant yellow look à la Prada — for some extra punch.
