I don’t know what it’s like in your corner of the world, but here in England the sun does not want to put his hat on. Instead, the weather is choosing to be grey and drizzly each day and the pavements are embellished with glistening puddles. While I wait for spring to make it’s sunny return (spring, if you’re reading, I’d love that to be soon if you could possibly manage it), these are my favourite ways to find cheer when skies are grey:
Lulu Guinness birdcage umbrella, scarlet Hunter wellingtons, Benefit PosieTint, Burberry trench coat.
What are your favourite ways to cheer up rainy days?
Love, Miss B xx
Here in New York City we’ve had beautiful spring weather but this Sunday rain has fallen non-stop. In that case I usually comfort myself by cozying up at home and lighting my favorite candles by Diptyque, Cire Trudon and The Hype Noses.
Living in Rome, rainy days are to me as precious as the sunny ones in London. Like you,I like to go out in trench and wellies and enjoy them. Although, I’m not sure I’d love rain this much if I had to deal with it almost everyday, like Brits do.. Hope spring will be back soon for you (and your bow heels) to enjoy!

Ah this is a lovely post, definately makes me feel better about the awful weather we’ve been having.

Ugh, it’s the same in California! Spring, I second that motion!
In Brisbane, Australia, the weather couldn’t be better. Autumn is a wonderful season here and I just love to get outside and garden my days away. Warm days and cool nights! MMMMM!! Don’t even need my Wellies! Yee Haa!
Definitely need this post to inspire with another week of rain ahead – gorgeous! And I love the scene at the end of Breakfast At Tiffanys where Holly Golightly is searching for Cat in the pouring rain. I also have a tip for happy time in the rain – take a Small Child along for jumping in puddles…never fails! xxx
I love the pink Hunter wellies I am in need of a new pair, and fresh flowers in the house always make me smile. Great inspiration on another wet day!
Love the post… weather’s awful isn’t it!
This is the girliest combat against April’s showers!!
I think I shall just skip all the way to the last one and get all snug under a duvet with a good movie and a giant bowl of popcorn 🙂

Loving the “wrap yourself in a cute trench and pretend you’re Holly Golightly” step! Too cute! I hope the sun decides to make an appearance soon!

I can 100% agree with you. The Sun really isn’t playing ball at the moment here either (Surrey). But at least my wellies are getting some good use.

I just love this!! Perfect thing to turn this rainy day upside down 🙂
My favourite thing to do on a rainy day is put on the biggest, fluffiest, jumper I can find, and cuddle up on the couch with a mug of coffee or a good book! 🙂
Btw, I love the way you write! You manage to make even rainy days seem pretty.
You make rainy days seem so delightful! Singin’ in the Rain is one of my favourite movies of all time 😉
What lovely sunshiney things to make a rainy day sparkle. I love the umbrella and Singing in the Rain! xx
awww….cute as a buttoned-up trench coat.
Weather in Sydney has also been dreary – so we can all join in with a happy sun dance together

I love love this outfit, (Burberry trench, hello there!) BUT I cant wait for this weather to be over, I’m SO over the rain!
Your blog is great!!!
This is so cute!! I love to wear BRIGHT colors when it’s raining so it doesn’t seem so dreary! I’m trying to find the perfect pair of multicolor wellies – maybe with polka dots!
xo, sam
Good plan!
What I like doing on rainy days? Reading blogs like this! Love this post, it almost makes rain bearable!
And for the record…I always pretend to be like Holly!

This weather sure is strange, but I love all of your fabulous rain suggestions. I tend to stay inside and curl up to a good movie =)
My BFF lives in London and she says it’s always raining but she LOVES the shopping! That alone makes it worth it =)
As always great post, I love your ideas! Fortunately, in Croatia arrived almost summer time.. 13:30 just now and 30 degrees Celsius.. :))
I love your ideas, always so refreshing, even when talking about the rain.. 😉 Fortunately, in Croatia for several days temperatures are over 30 degrees Celsius.. 🙂 Greetings!
I’ve been feeling really down lately because of the weather but reading your suggestions actually a smile on my face. Looking forward to trying them all 🙂

So many lovely things. The Lulu Guinness birdcage umbrella is BEYOND COOL !
P.S. I’m enjoying following your rose-tinted adventures on Instagram, darling! What an eye you have for pretty details.

This is a great post! I’m absolutely fed up of the constant weeks of rain over here in England, it’s so annoying! I really like your blog, it would be nice if you could stop by my blog sometime too 🙂 🙂

I love your sense of femininity and positivity in combating the rainy weathers!!! It has been raining heavily over here as well, along with lightening and thunder!!! ARghhh…..
But these tips will definitely come in handy. I agree with the brolly, i always look for stylish and pretty brollies which i always find a tad bit silly as it’s just to hide under the rain but whatever makes you happy eh? lol
Believe it or not, i do not own a pair of wellies and i so need to do something about that! I saw some people wearing heeled wellies but i really think it’s crazy, in the safety sense.
I see a lot of bloggers who buy flowers and i’ve seen you displaying yours beautifully in your blog posts too, yet some how i never get around in doing it. I hope to be doing this every now and then as well to brighten up any blue days!!!
And the last tip on your list, a good old movie at home while tucked under your duvet is always the best!!!=D
Thanks for the inspiration,Miss. B!!!!!! Hope you’re having a fab – non rainy weekend!!! 😉
