Move over Hunter: There's another cool rain boot brand on the scene (technically, they've been on the scene since 1853…) called Aigle. Skip lightly through puddles in these Aigle Jumping Boots, $199 at jcrew.com.


These classic boots at Charlotte Russe kinda reminded me of the Aigles because of the two-tone coloration. Give them a try for just $34.99 at charlotterusse.com.

Alexander Wang's denim and leather jacket truly is the best of both worlds. It retails for $595 at shopbop.com.


To get a similar look for less, try this Silence & Noise Rally Jacket instead, on sale for $79.99 (down from $138) at urbanoutfitters.com.

The best way to get into a new makeup routine is through a comprehensive starter kit. Usually these kits are the best bang for your buck since you get enough of everything you need, and sometimes you try out products you never would have picked up separately. RAWMinerals gifted me with just such a kit—the RAWMinerals 7-Piece Discovery Kit ($180), which includes everything you need to get started with mineral makeup, including two mineral foundations, Mineral Glow, Active Veil SPF 18, a foundation brush, a concealer brush, a multi-tasking retractable brush, and a DVD titled "Getting Started."
