Sometimes rain is the hardest kind of weather to dress for. The past week or so has brought a bit of rain to UF’s campus, and many people resorted to leggings and windbreakers. Ciara, a 20-year-old sophomore, still managed to put together a cute oufit for one of the miserable days. I spotted her at the bus stop and was impressed by her stylish outfit– even in the rain. Follow her lead, and learn how to dress for the rain!
