I've Checked the Forecast–Here's the Best Rainy Day Pieces from & Other Stories

I hate to break it to you, but the current spells of sunshine that we've been waiting for aren't predicted to last, and with bouts of rain and another drop in temperatures on the horizon, it's time to start shopping sensibly. I'm not quite ready to pack away my sandals just yet (a girl can still dream), but as soon as the strong winds start to pick up and the grey skies appear, I always revert back to the same key pieces in my wardrobe to see me through intermittent spells: knitwear, a pair of jeans and a jacket. It's the classic cold-girl uniform

Thankfully, these pieces are incredibly easy to shop, and even if you've struggled to find the right pair of jeans or can't seem to find a jacket that's both light enough for sunshine and cosy enough for cold weather, I've done the legwork for you and pulled together everything you could possibly need from one store—& Other Stories.

& Other Stories is always good at making practical clothing feel premium and polished, so even if you spend a little bit more, you can rest assured that the pieces are built to last, and you'll still be wearing them in five years' time (the summer dress I bought in 2018 is testament to that). Skimming through the new-in and best sellers sections, I've found the knits, jeans and jackets that are perfect for the weather ahead, and I'm confident you'll find something in this edit that you'll truly love.

So, keep scrolling for the best rainy day pieces that you can buy now from & Other Stories. You won't get caught out in a thin dress and sandals again. 

SHOP THE BEST KNITWEAR FROM & OTHER STORIES:

Gather round Francophiles, the Breton is back. 

If I could only wear one piece of knitwear forever, it would be a chunky cardigan. 

I love this chic T-shirt-meets-knit hybrid. 

Tuck into jeans and add leather ankle boots. 

This style was a best seller for the brand last year.

SHOP THE BEST JEANS FROM & OTHER STORIES:

There's something undoubtedly cool about the relaxed fit in the leg.

The perfect length for making the most of a great pair of shoes. 

Quite possibly the perfect cut and wash.

The sharp pleats made these feel so much smarter.

I love the tonal colour-blocking idea. 

Sorry skinnies, we're only wearing looser, baggier fits now.

Everything about this look is a winner. 

SHOP THE BEST JACKETS FROM & OTHER STORIES:

Every wardrobe should have a blazer, but extra points for luxe-looking tan. 

The tweed jacket is the fast track to making any outfit look expensive. 

For the days when a full-length trench is a little too bulky. 

Camel trenches are a classic, but this green is just as versatile. 

No one will believe this isn't designer. 

The cinched waist detail makes this excellent jacket even better.
