Travel Style - Raincoats

I recently finalized my itinerary for Dublin this spring - a magical place that I'm simply excited to return to.  My first getaway to Ireland, all those many years ago, was in the spring as well, and I can tell you firsthand just how important a solid raincoat can be.  It's a worthwhile investment piece that can be used year round, which gives you all the more reason to find one that you WANT to wear.  From stripes and solids, to everything in between, look for one that provides adequate protection from the elements, but still brings you joy each time you put it on.  Prices can range from a modest investment to "I will use only this one FOREVER!!".  Here are a few favorites that I've recently come across.
