| Title says it all. What is your go-to semi-fashionable option for those bone cold rainy days where a puffer/fleece/wool wouldn’t work? This is for DC. TIA! |

| I wear long underwear under my clothes and then my rain jacket (same one I wear in summer). If it's very cold I'll layer a wool sweater and a pair of fleece lined pants as well. Add waterproof gloves and a beanie under my hood if necessary. |

| I have a short quilted Barbour jacket with a hood, and a longer similar quilted coat with a removable hood — both in black. I also wear a hat and gloves, and carry an umbrella. |

| Barbour isn't ugly but it doesn't seem fashionable, sorry. |

| I layer under my rain jacket that has room in the arms for a long sleeve sweater. I bought it years ago at H&M. The fabric isn't waterproof because I hate plasticky jackets that get sweaty. |

Yes, but you have to re-wax them to keep them that way. |

This! Plus - They last 30+ years. Great buys worth the price tag and can be purchased used on EBay. Cox the Saddler is an amazing store to buy from as well. |
