#Win The Rainrap a reversible rain cover, a travel must to keep you try while on the fun #Giveaway

Sometimes you just never know when a rain story might pop up, these days in the Northeast the rain seems to come at a more steady pace. Wouldn’t you like to be prepared for the next rain storm? Sure umbrellas are ok, but they can be bulky I have found something that  is easy to travel with and will get you dry in the wettest of weather. I would like to introduce you all to the RAINRAP, here is a little more information about the The RAINRAP from the website:

The RAINRAP™ is a new, innovative accessory for the practical and fashion conscious consumer. The RAINRAP™, is a fashionable alternative to traditional raingear, that is not available in today’s retail market. The RAINRAPS™ design combines the popular style of the pashmina and wrap. The RAINRAP™ is reversible, light weight, fast drying, easy to store (folds up to fit in your handbag and/or suitcase), and comes in twelve colorful combinations. The versatility of the RAINRAP™ makes it a fashion accessory that can be worn all year round. Weather or not the RAINRAP™ will compliment any outfit by providing a splash of color and style.

RAINRAPS™ started as a simple idea on a rainy day. Stacy Struminger, a New Yorker transplanted to Richmond, VA, had long seen the need for a more stylish, lightweight, waterproof accessory in the often wet and humid Richmond climate. In the spring of 2011, a weeklong rainstorm left Stacy frustrated by the lack of a fashionable, waterproof garment in her wardrobe. Searching her coat closet in vain, Stacy had the inspiration for a waterproof wrap that was not only utilitarian but also stylish. Sharing her idea with her best friend, Rachel Teyssier, they decided together to make the vision a reality. Hence, a revolution in the development of fashionable waterproof outwear began and RAINRAPS was developed.
I was very fortunate to be able to review a Hooded in the colors, Fuchsia + Nectarine
The Hooded Fuchsia + Nectarine RAINRAP comes with a fuchsia travel pouch that allows it to fold up easily to fit in your handbag or for travel. It is reversible, waterproof/water resistant, one size fits all and has a double sided button for closure and reversibility.
Water-Repellent/Water-Resistant Outerwear Accessory
Travel friendly (folds up to fit in a handbag and/or suitcase)
Fashionable/Stylish
One Size Fits All
Reversible
100% Polyester
Measurement from the neck to the bottom of the back hem is 25.5 inches


As most of you all know we love to travel, I seem to be going somewhere all the time. Be it traveling every day to work, or traveling to a press trip or a family vacation traveling is something I love to do.  One place we love to travel is Disney World (of course) and for those who have traveled to central Florida you know they have a 20 minute storm each and every day (Well it sure seems like they do, when I am there).
We would carry an umbrella in my daughters coach and just break out the umbrella when the rain starts. But now my daughter is getting older and she is too big her coach and now what do we do with our umbrella?  Who wants to carry around an umbrella on rides and such? That is no fun. When I was contacted by RAINRAPS to check out a wrap, I was so excited this would be so wonderful for travel. 

As soon as the wrap arrived my family and I were headed out to a family trip to Baltimore, it was great timing. I opened the package, and the RAINRAP  came with a nice pouch to pack the wrap in. I was able to roll the wrap in the pouch and pack it in my purse easily. Luckily it did not rain in Baltimore that weekend, but I was prepared and I felt good about that.



The RAINRAP was soft and very colorful. I loved that it folded to a small size, but when it was unrolled it was not a wrinkled mess. I know I would not want to wear a wrinkled mess (ok.. maybe in a severe rainstorm…) when I am out and The RAINRAP was virtually wrinkleless. I was very happy with the quality of this item, it was well made. It is also easy to clean, no dry cleaning needed. To clean your RAINRAP at home simply machine wash cold, in the gentle cycle that it. Then you are ready to go off to another adventure, staying dry and looking good.  I just wish they offered children’s wraps, and wraps for men. Perhaps one day? I am sure everyone in the family would love to have The RAINRAP.

If you are looking for a stylish way to cover-up in the rain you are going to love RAINRAPS, they are well made and colorful. Why not be prepared for the next rainstorm, keep dry while looking cute, you will just love these wraps!  They are having a great sale for the original RAINRAP (this has no hood) in three reversible color combinations for only $30.00 each!
