They say an April storm’s a-comin’. Wind. Rain. Hail. Nasty little puddles everywhere. You better batten down the hatches and prepare to look your most dashing. The second part feels less pressing, but still. Here...

Rainwear is 25% off at Haberdash right now. Maybe hurry up and grab something. Or maybe just this nice Austrian raincoat. It’s reversible, so it’s like getting two coats in one. Because it’s reversible. It’s also good for quick costume changes during rain delays. We’re sure that means something.
You’re out there. Doing things. Going places. Carrying a computer, a turkey sandwich and a whole mess of sea monkeys while you do it. This waterproof rolltop canvas backpack will keep them all dry. Unrelated: you’re a fool to trust sea monkeys around your sandwich.
Sometimes “Windy City” is more metaphor than actual weather condition. Still, no one told that to your umbrella, which has a tendency to blow inside out at all times. To address that for you, our friends at Perks have these kind of funky, very wind-resistant umbrellas. Funk saves the day again.
Okay, sometimes no amount of handsomeness is going to save you. Sometimes you just have to build an ark and hold on. And while this particular ark won’t save the world’s animals or anything, it is inflatable. Plus you can take it to the beach on Memorial Day.
