Happy Tuesday, ladies! After a beautiful Spring week, we’ve got rain here in Athens. No more evenings on the patio, at least for now. But as they say, when life gives you rain, bring a raincoat. In fact, this week has been all about Spring coats. On Sunday, we featured the most important Winter-to-Spring transition piece: the Spring jacket. Unsurprisingly, the raincoat made our list. And today we’re featuring what I think is one of 2022’s best women’s raincoats from Talbots.
One of the reasons I love Spring jackets—raincoats, in particular—is that they are the easiest way to introduce color into your wardrobe. This year is all about bright, bold colors: from beautiful coral reds to hot pinks, 2022 features it all.
Today’s feature is a plaid raincoat from Talbots. Its colorful, pink-based plaid pairs perfectly with the cutest pink rainboots from Amazon. What I love about this jacket, though, is that it would work well with a myriad of boots and shoes. I could see dressing the outfit up slightly with a pair of riding boots; or down with a pair of clogs or platform sneakers.

It’s been the year of the pink sweater for me. Last Fridays with Oscar, I featured a lovely pink v-neck sweater from LOFT. Today, I’m wearing this super comfy mock neck sweater from Ann Taylor (limited sizes, similar here and here). Style it with your favorite denim or pants; this sweater is the perfect transition piece for Spring.

My jeans are slim-straight from Wit & Wisdom—a new favorite of mine. Straight-leg jeans are in this year, and this pair, in particular, fits great.

Really cut looks! I love the raincoat’s plaid every time I see it. But I wouldn’t buy it b/c of the two narrower columns that run from chest (bust darts, maybe?) to hem. It throws off the whole look b/c is so noticeable. I have a T’s plaid raincoat from 2020 that is made just fine.
Very cute outfit. Pink is one of my favorite colors and I have been trying not to order any more sweaters. Might have to change my mind and the raincoat is great! Is it navy or black in the coat?
it’s navy and pink. one of my favorite color combos!
I wish it had a hood . . .
hoods are nice but they have a much more casual look to them.
Oh my goodness. Am I really seeing a flowering tree in the background? Send some of that beauty our way! Always, always, enjoy your post! Seeing your style and your smile makes my day along with my morning coffee.
that is a tulip magnolia. they’re the first to burst into bloom. but the trees and shrubs aren’t far behind.
Hello
I’m frustrated with your website. Today you were wearing a Kelly Green trench coat and I saw no reference to where to purchase. This is not the first time I see a recommendation and I search and have big disappointment when I cannot locate it.
today’s post is all about the plaid raincoat from Talbots and it is linked as all the items are. sometimes, we run posts with inspirational outfits
from the past in that instance we note that similar are linked. hope this helps.
I had previously spotted this raincoat and I adore it! Might NEED to get it. Talbots is my fave.
it’s a good looking raincoat!
Gorgeous head-to-toe OOTD, gorgeous setting, gorgeous you! Beautiful raincoat and rainboot ensemble, Beth. I want it! ~
