Why don’t I care if it rains? Not only because it brings beautiful flowers and lush, green lawn, but because I have all of the gear to be stylish in a shower.

It isn’t a bad idea to wear a minimal top so it doesn’t get saturated by the rain. In this case, it is a lovely lace bra masquerading as a midriff-baring top from *Just BECAUSE*, available at this month’s round of FaMESHed. It is part of a set with matching panties that come in both a lace and solid version. They pair perfectly with a dress with the same options, but this is pretty enough to show off on its own.

To help protect the rest of me are several lovely items from the “Rainy Days” round of The Liaison Collaborative. Starting at the top is this great hat from GizzA . It is stylish as well as practical. To add another layer of protection is this sweet rain jacket from Vinyl. It comes in a wide variety of colours, with bonus textures if you pick up the fatpack. And finally, these adorable capris from ~Nerido~ give you the option of wearing the belt, or not, making these casual pants great for layering or for a highlight for your mid-section.

In the background is the welcoming Palma set from {what next} from the current round of Collabor88. You can purchase the chairs, tables (in multiple colours), lanterns and decor set separately, but for only 188L, you really should go for the full set. It’s too good a bargain to let wash away.

I should grab the books though; I may not be afraid of the rain, but I don’t want to ruin a classic!
