I know some people who refrain from using umbrella when it rains. They prefer to use a coat instead. I personallly choose to use an umbrella when its raining. How about you? What do you use?

I only use umbrella during heavy rains. Unless that, I prefer to walk through it. I find it a bother to carry an umbrella around. Plus, I already enough things to carry in my arms, I can't add another unless it's necessary.

I just walk around in a coat but if it starts raining and i am not prepared then i simply get wet. I love to walk around in the rain.

I agree that this is a good idea, but I am never that prepared. If I'm at home and it starts raining, my umbrella is in the car. If I'm out somewhere, the umbrella is at home. SO I just get wet.

Umbrella - Umbrella - Rainy Season
I do always carry umbrella in my bag since it is small and it fits perfectly in my bag.The place where I am in, it is too hot.When I go out,I need umbrella, I am sensitive to sun rays.Also,I used umbrella when it is raining.I don't like to get wet when I am going out somewhere and it starts raining.Otherwise,I love rain.

I really don't like umbrellas for some reason, maybe because here on the shore it's usually really windy when it rains. I prefer a hoodie sweatshirt to keep my hair dry and out of the wind

I use umbrella every rainy season. When it is summer it is okay for me not to use umbrella but every rainy season i required my self to always use umbrella. When i am riding on my bike i use coat because i feel that coat is more convenient when i was biking but when walking i prefer to use umbrella.

There are times, when I do use an umbrella. But there are times, when I don't, for whatever reason. I think that it just depends on the mood that I am in, on that specific day, and such.

Yes, I always use umbrella even if it is not raining. I bring umbrella all the time for sun protection.

well i usually have an umbrella but personally i like coats. But i can't seem to find one that is both fashionable and useful. I always see coats that are for kids and for the police and such.

I almost never use an umbrella, but only because I live in the suburbs and I'm usually not more than thirty seconds away from my warm, dry car. I'll be moving to the city in a year or two, though, and I'm pretty sure I'll be depending on an umbrella all the time. I already have an umbrella picked out, too! It's from the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, and it's got a blue sky pattern with white clouds on the underside to make you feel like it's actually a beautiful day outside. We all need a dash of something whimsical when it rains, after all.
