Snowman NYC showed their collection at New York Fashion Week on September 4, 2015. For spring 2015, Snowman NYC has made outerwear cool! The collection of lightweight, short-sleeve jackets combined with cozier, long sleeved, quilted jackets and coats, gave the collection versatility for any weather condition. 

Snowman NYC’s collection was stylish in its’ own right; making outerwear the focal point of an ensemble rather than just a way to cover up in inclement weather.

Rain boots for fall 2012

The fall season is almost here; and if you walk around a store, it looks like fall is in full swing despite the summer temperatures outside! Since store shelves are freshly stocked with fall’s hottest merchandise, this is the perfect time to think about rain boots before the rainy season starts; and all the fabulous boots are taken!

On a gloomy, rainy day there is no reason to skip being fabulous when it comes to footwear. The fall 2012 season is full of jewel tone colors, traditional autumn hues and eye-catching patterns. These fashion trends have translated into everything you can think of; including rain boots!

Rain boots for fall 2012 are being shown in vibrant hues such as pink, purple, red, green, cobalt, metallics and even sunshine yellow. There are also playful patterns which include plaid, florals and leopard print!

We found a few fabulous pairs of rain boots for the fall 2012 season and assembled them into the Polyvore set below. Which pair is your favorite? Happy shopping, stay fabulous and remain dry

Stay bright on rainy days this spring

Oh the rain! Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we have had an extremely dry winter. The mild climate and warm sunshine have allowed Fashionistas around Northern California to start wearing their fabulous spring clothing and accessories. The bright spring 2012 colors combined with the sunny weather have put everyone in the mood for the warm summer months. Of course, the rain has decided to come now, in the middle of March. 

The March rains are seasonal. Every year we enjoy spring showers through April. The odd thing about this particular rain storm is that it just does not feel right! We have been enjoying spring weather over the past few months and going back to winter, for even just one week, feels odd.
Fortunately the bright spring colors of the season can keep us in our warm weather moods and brighten up even the dreariest of days. So toss aside that black umbrella, boring black rain boots and black nylon handbag. It is time to brighten up the grey sky!
Furla has fabulous spring handbags this season which also happen to be made from rubber. Perfect for the rain! These bright little numbers will also work perfectly when the weather is warm and sunny since a rubber handbag will survive a day at the beach and an entire summer by the pool. 
In addition to Furla brightening up the world of handbags, there are so many fabulous and colorful rain boots on the market right now. Why would you wear black? Look for polka dots, yellow, bright green, festive blues and of course the color of the year; Tangerine Tango. 
We scoured the web and found a few bright, rain friendly items to add a little sunshine to rainy days. Hope you enjoy! Stay dry and fabulous
