When paired with jeans, destroyed denims or leggings they give a functional and cute look. Be it the slight nip in the air, chilly rain or plain styling, whatever is on your mind you will be at your fashionable best!

• Trapeze shirts or trapeze shaped dresses in nice prints are apt for rainy days. Play with the neon trend here.
