The rain
keeps on coming down
and I'm beginning to feel like
Mary Poppins
every time I leave the house!
Trench
Boots
Umbrella
& bag
all in tow!
My absolute favorite boots in the whole wide world are these stylish super comfy black
Kelly Rain Boots from Tretorn!
Great with jeans, wool trousers, skirts and of course my trench.
My boots and I would look fabulous stepping out in this gorgeous coat! Oh my gosh, I love the whole look. The hair, the handbag, the shades....so classic.
If you know the source please let me know!

This one is not the least bit worried about the rain because Nautical is always in. Love the scarf too!

I remember when I had wash & wear hair...Those were the days when it was "fun" to be under an umbrella!

Her trench & dog are pretty cute although
I've never really cared for clear umbrellas. They remind me of shower caps.

I'm old school. I think umbrellas should be black.
Loving this Alexander McQueen!
I bet Kate likes it too...
This Burberry Double Regent is understated black on top & great for the MR.
And for all of my artistic gardener friends, I offer this umbrella bordered with tulips from artist/photographer Harold Feinstein.
I mentioned Mary Poppins earlier for a couple of reasons. Did you know that when I was five I used to tell everyone that she was my aunt? Yes indeedy!
I shared this with my Australian friend Coty Farquhar last night during a nice long visit via skype.
She was showing me on Google Earth all around Bowral, the beautiful village in the Southern Highlands of New South Whales where she lives!
I have always known that Bowral was magical. Coty's beautiful photographs and stories of life in the countryside that she and her family lead are graciously shared with all on her award-winning blog, Styling by Coty Farquhar.
She told me the most amazing story about a magical someone who once called the Southern Highlands home...I'll let Coty tell you the story, just click on Mary Poppins & fly away with her to Bowral!

Lisa,
ReplyDeleteYou are just adorable! Fun post....I wish I still had wash and wear hair, those were indeed the days!
xo
Love anything Tretorn, Lisa! These boots look great.
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well with you, and I want the recipe for the bread.
Have a nice evening.
Teresa

Just love this Lisa! I saw Tretorn (though not black) rain boots at Marshalls in Westport,CT if anyone happens to live near there!
ReplyDeleteSo Mary is YOUR aunt is she? I always thought she was MINE!!!! Lol....she was a stylish lady wasn't she! I too have a thing for rain gear, you arent' the only one love wellies and smart rain trenchcoats, if they fit really well. I also love my Burberry black rainhat its got a great fit and covers all my hair (very important) and do like black umbrellas too! I love that pic at that top that you like...she looks so chic!
ReplyDeleteIf its going to pour...you might as well look great while trapsing through the rain.......rather than look like a soggy little pup! Nice post!
I love all of your rainy day inspiration!! And I wish my hair were wash and wear like it used to be too!! I haven't visited Coty in a while - will have to pop on over. Stay dry!!
ReplyDeleteFun post Lisa and we need all the rain gear we can get too. It has rained virtually every day since the 1st of Aoril and boy is this going to shorten our spring season.
ReplyDeleteGuess I should look more stylish though when running through the puddles. As always, a well-researched and delightful post. Much love XO
You are so darn cute! Such great photos ~ I could put some of these to good use as the rain is heading our way.
ReplyDeleteHope the sun peeks out in your area soon ~
Jo

I love Poppins Part One here at LPC + Part Two at Coty F. Always a favorite of mine, too! Chim Chiminy!! oxo
ReplyDeleteWhen you find out who designed that first coat please let me know, it's gorgeous and I want one. I may just have to have one made.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed above that my daughter has been over to you as well, you're so loved by the Farquhars down under!!
Thanks for the great mention here on this post Lisa, I was thrilled to read it this morning before running off to work.
I Loved our chat yesterday, you're a very special person and I'm so glad to have met you through blogging.
I will keep you posted about your Aunty, I mean, Mary....Mary Poppins. What a hoot to think that she was created here in my home town. Who'd a thought!!!
Good night, xxx Coty
I love that umbrella!
ReplyDeletelove your boots! must check them out. I've been trying to decide which color of Wellies to buy for two years (some decisions are soooo difficult, yes?!) cute story of "Aunt" MP!!
ReplyDeletebest,
joan
Love the flower garden umbrella and the Tretorn boots, but I am so OVER the rain! The sun is finally peeking out and I hope it's planning to stay around for a while. But, if there has to be rain, you've featured some wonderfully stylish things to wear in it!
