Top Tweets of the Week: Dec. 1-7


Rain, rain, why won't you go away, and come again when spring is on its way? I don't know about you, but it's December, and that means the only precipitation I want to see is snow. Wet weather has been frequent recently, but rather than wallow in misery, I've been enjoying all the adorable rain-boots-and-puddle-jumping photos in my Twitter feed. After all, every cloud has a silver lining—and there have been a lot of clouds lately—there are still plenty of ways to have fun on rainy days!

Your subconscious clearly knew something was up.



Hahaha, what a classic Christmas movie quote! Find clothes for the fancy events on your calendar this season in our holiday fashion guide.

Epitome of the "cloud with silver lining" thing.

As a medium coocoo person myself, I fully back this rule.

Quack! I bet that umbrella can brighten even the dreariest of days.   Until the rain turns to snow, I'll keep trudging around the city under my boring black umbrella. If anyone wants to gift me a cuter one for Christmas, I won't be opposed!   Join us on Tuesdays for more Top Tweets.
