I don’t have to hit a high fashion or formal bar for getting from car to building.<br /> If I really had to hike several blocks in heavy rain and had a more formal or on- trend workplace, I’d need tall boots in a better brand and style. </p> <p>I also think there s dearth if true knee- length or just below knee trench coats and raincoats. So many are mid- thigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-you-deal-with-rain-and-business-formal-clothing#post-1888896 Mon, 12 Feb 2018 23:43:58 +0000 Angie 1888896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Waterproof dressy footwear by brands like Aquatalia are excellent. Also, it's not so bad bringing extra shoes on the commute, and changing into them at work. It's a good habit in my opinion.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-you-deal-with-rain-and-business-formal-clothing#post-1888875 Mon, 12 Feb 2018 21:45:09 +0000 rachylou 1888875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did always have a rain outfit for work, and wore my rain boots all day... although I admit the squeaking on tile floor would bug me... the rain boots were pretty special tho. Not simply wellies. Designer things, extremely slim fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-you-deal-with-rain-and-business-formal-clothing#post-1888872 Mon, 12 Feb 2018 21:42:32 +0000 The Cat 1888872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It will depend on how much it rains and how long I'll have to walk. If it rains just a little and I'll be out just a few moments, I don't care much--just wear a (rain)coat/jacket and use an umbrella. However, if it's raining cats and dogs and I have to spend more than a few moments walking or waiting in the rain, I'll also wear nice rain boots--and bring a pair of shoes, because (1) I don't feel comfortable in wet shoes, and (2) I don't want to ruin my smart shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-you-deal-with-rain-and-business-formal-clothing#post-1888854 Mon, 12 Feb 2018 20:47:24 +0000 Katelyn 1888854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Every time it rains, I find myself changing my outfit so that it fits the shoes I have to wear in the rain. Lately, I can't sub out my heels or flats and it is a pain to bring a second pair of shoes with me for my commute. I also feel uncomfortable having to change my shoes at work. What do you guys do in this situation?&nbsp; </p>
