Spring is here which means it\u2019s time to renew and re-establish relationships with your mind, body and closet. Dust off those rain coats and rubber boots because it\u2019s starting to pour\u2026tears of happiness for it\u2019s a new fashion season. So, let\u2019s start it off right with jackets and rubber boots!<\/p>\n<p>Even though rubber boots are their own respective category of footwear and a shoe strong and versatile enough for the ages, I can\u2019t help but think of the Sesame Street <em>Rubber Ducky<\/em> song or of a micro pig in rubber boots. I know I\u2019m not as cute as either of those but the theme of this blog did give me an opportunity to splash around in puddles (sans rubber duck) and have some fun matching my wellies to some stylish spring sheaths. In my opinion, that gives rubber ducks and tiny pigs a run for their money.<\/p>\n<p>Something that we typically don\u2019t think about styling are rubber boots but, the best way to in fact style them is with a jacket! I might be stating the obvious but if it\u2019s raining and you\u2019re wearing boots, you\u2019re probably going to want a jacket in tow. And if you\u2019re like me, you might wear rubber boots when it\u2019s not raining. (It\u2019s all for the Instagram pics amiright?)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"665\" height=\"1013\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7244 size-large\" alt=\"Style By JR 1\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-1-672x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-1-672x1024.jpg 672w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-1-197x300.jpg 197w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-1.jpg 724w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are starting out strong with this classic fisherman\u2019s inspired raincoat so naturally I\u2019d pair it with overalls for a strong east coast vibe.

Not to have this confused with the ever-daunting question, \u201cam I too old for this outfit?\u201d The answer is no\u2026for some things. We can have fun with our fashion too and that\u2019s the beauty in these two pieces.

I wanted to showcase a great way to style a beautifully blush jacket with pieces all in the same colour family. Monochromatic outfits are a thing of fashion\u2019s future and I\u2019m beyond excited that I got to do this in my favourite colour! I\u2019ve paired them with a light colour sneaker mostly because it\u2019s still wasn\u2019t raining. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019d be pairing this outfit with my Hunters anytime but it\u2019s great to see versatility especially head to toe in one colour because one may not have pink shoes.<\/p>\n<p>Dressing head to toe in one colour takes a lot of pressure out of planning an outfit because you\u2019re only working with one colour palette. This also gives you an opportunity to add some colour into your wardrobe. Everyone has a black, navy blue or grey jacket. Now, there is nothing wrong with that, I myself have many in those shades but pink can still be timeless as well. You would wear a black coat with black pants and a black top so do the same with other colours. Have fun my fashion friends!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"943\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7248 size-full\" alt=\"Style By JR 5\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-5.jpg\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-5.jpg 625w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-5-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be afraid to plan your outfits starting with your outerwear.

I truly was not offended by that but what he doesn\u2019t know is that it wouldn\u2019t matter if I was splish, splashing away or rolling in mud because I have boot shine! (Insert infomercial product revealing sound effects here.) I bet a lot of you didn\u2019t know you could shine and protect your rubber boots. I didn\u2019t know until recently either and I\u2019m never looking back. The product shown is specific to the shiny boots but there are protectants for matte finished ones too. I believe this is crucial because this style of shoe takes a big hit, much like our winter boots. They guard us from the elements so in turn, we should take care of them. We spray, polish and wipe away the salt stains from our UGGS and Sorels so please do the same with your rubberized kicks. I\u2019m not joking when I say this was the easiest shoe clean I have ever done. That says a lot because you don\u2019t need a lot of elbow grease to polish your shoes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"665\" height=\"1006\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7254 size-large\" alt=\"Style By JR 11\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-11-677x1024.png\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-11-677x1024.png 677w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-11-198x300.png 198w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Style-By-JR-11.png 724w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m fearless in these boots! Seriously, this was a deep puddle and I was just on the shoreline.<\/p>\n<p>This look is a more classic and practical combination but there\u2019s a twist. Rose. Gold. Hardware. And now it just went up ten points on the fashion scale. What I love so much about this jacket is I can easily wear it with jeans and a t-shirt while I\u2019m out and about but I could also sport this for a dressier event. The rose gold immediately spices it up in all the right ways and I can control the shape of the silhouette with the waist tie. It is also navy blue so it\u2019s not obnoxious but it\u2019s also not the same black jacket that everyone else has.
