Rainy Days in Iowa City

Hello everyone!

Spring is nearly here!! That means lots of rain, but don’t let that bring your spirits down. Rainy days can be awesome.

I love waking up to a rainy, cloudy day. I feel extra cozy. I normally turn on my fairy lights to have ambient lighting. I also like turning on some Lord Huron or Bon Hiver for that moody indie vibe.

A nice, warm shower is the best way to fight the gloom. After that, something cozy like a sweatshirt, zip-up, sweater, leggings, or sweats is a nice combo.

When I have time, I will read a book or do my homework to feel mysterious and in a dark academia novel. It is very motivating! The sound of the rain is a great ambiance, especially if you leave your curtains open.

When it is time for class, I wear an umbrella and rain jacket, paired with AirPods for rainy-day music. It makes being outside so much better.

For food, warm stuff is my go-to. Soup, mac and cheese, anything hearty is great. Accompany that with a warm drink like chai or another tea and you are set.

Make the best of it and really romanticize it, it will always be sunny soon!
