I have a thing for rainy days. It's not because I love the Smiths or because I'm a gloomy person, there's just something about dark, rainy days that makes me happy. Maybe it's because the atmosphere is altered from that of a typical day, maybe it's because I love waking to the sound of pitter patter on my window, or maybe it's because I have a deep romantic side, that secretly imagines I'm in a Jane Austen book as I make my way through slicked streets. Regardless of the reason, nothing ruins the joy of rain more than not having adequate clothing. Above is my ultimate rain outfit. Complete with waterproof bag, high tech (and wind resistant) umbrella, and even a faux fur stole for a touch of luxury. These items are all available through Ebates merchants, meaning you'll get cash back and stay dry.
Urbahia Rain CoatAvailable at YOOX, this rain coat has something most other rain wear doesn't; it's waterproof. You'd be surprised how many jackets masquerading as rainwear aren't waterproof, and this one is made from polyurethane meaning water (or coffee) can't penetrate. You'll get 6.0% Cash Back while staying dry, even if it's raining cats and dogs.
Burberry Rain BootsThese days I don't even attempt to brave the rain with anything less than my rain boots. Available at Nordstrom, you'll get 3.0% Cash Back while keeping your toes and pants dry.
Wind Defying UmbrellaDuring blustery weather it's protocol to see stranded umbrellas on the street, twisted and mangled from the wind. This umbrella from Hammacher Schlemmer has vents which allow wind to pass through rather than causing your umbrella to invert. You'll receive 6.0% Cash Back.
Water Resistant Bag and Faux Fur Stole While technically this is a diaper bag, one can not pass up such a stylish bag with so many compartments. Made from patent vinyl, this bag is water resistant and won't become spotted when out in the rain (like suede and leather bags). For a bit of fun this Faux Fur stole will keep my neck warm and my outfit chic. Both are available at Shopbop where you'll get 6.0% Cash Back.

I have had my Burberry Rain boots for 5+ years now... They still save the day during a storm!
Super cute outfit!
Hey Hunting Diva
Where can I get a Burberry coat for cheap?
There are two ways to get Burberry (or any other designer) for less. I wouldn't exactly say cheap, but definitely less expensive. For starters try ebay. They carry tons of Burberry items. Also check out departments stores. With xmas around the corner, these stores will be having additional discounts and promotions.
Hope this helps!
