Rain Check

They say there are two things in life that are certain – taxes and death. Living in London I think there is a third one you can add to that, rain. There doesn’t seem to be a day that goes by where the heavens don’t open up for a meet and greet and remind us that our clothes are helpless against the elements. So while on a day out in London exploring the beauty of Greenwich (especially the Old Royal Naval College with its dramatic mirrored design and waterfront views), I got to experience once again the unpradictable British weather of glorious sunshine followed by dark broody clouds all in the space of a few hours making it hard to find a balance. But I think Cos have solved at least part of the balancing problem thanks to their lightweight technical Mac coats. The clean modern design is light enough to not look out of place when the skies are clear but still embodies the technical necessities to keep me in check through the rain, wind and hail that the Great British Summer offers us. I guess I can add Cos to the list of certain things as they always seem to have me covered.
