WORN | Looking for raincoats ain't easy

So, apparently though autumn and winter sit just around the corner waiting for their turn at blasting us with wet blustery days and dark chilly nights, not a store within mall-ratting distance sells raincoats. Like P.V.C raincoats. The ones that your parents bought to keep you dry on your walk to school but was stuffed into your bag once you were out of sight and you continued on your way, getting drenched to the bone and racing for the desks seated next to the radiators in class, leaning up against them until you could feel your skin starting to smart from the heat? 
Yeah, those ones.
No-one sells them.
And now I really want one.
In yellow.
And no...a wafer thin poncho from the Dollar Store will not suffice.
wearing: Karen Walker 'Painterly' cap and 'Number One' sunglasses.  Abercrombie & Fitch men's sweatshirt, Madame Hawke dress and Converse.
In other news, today was a good day for crystallising phones, eating pineapple and apricot muffins with butter and green candy floss. 
It was not a good day for raincoat finding. 
I hold grudges. 
I cannot let this go.

 "I can't believe they don't have raincoats. Any of them! It's bulls**t!"

 "Well whaddya wanna do?"

 "I dunno. I know I want a coffee...and treats."

 "Where? Where do you wanna go!?"

 "Fine. Don't worry about it.

 "What? Where. Do. You. Want. To. Go!"

 "Home. Let's just go home. I'm p****d off now."

 "Do you want to go to the mall?"

 ".....yes..."

 "You are such a bell end. Why didn't you just say you want to go the mall?"

 "'Cos I know how much you hate the mall."

 "I do hate the mall but I'll go for you....you bell end. Absolute bell end."

 "Thanks babe."

  1. I feel your pain. This is my exact problem, especially since seeing Maddy Budd and Emma Gleason's ones during the Fashion Festival. The only ones that I can find are stupid prices. It's pretty dumb really when my mother has spent my whole life telling me to buy sensible clothes, and now I want them they're shitass hard to get/ expensive.

  3. I bought one from Topshop that I love (they have heaps at the mo...) it's a waxed raincoat so hasn't got that 'mac' gloss to it, more of a dull shine. But its navy and keeps the rain off me! Plus I think its way nicer than the pic makes it out to be...
