Rhode Island weather has a mind of its own. With these tips, you'll never find yourself in a bind you aren't prepared for!

LAYER, LAYER, LAYER!

This is CRUCIAL to surviving the crazy seasons. Sometimes you need to bundle up in the morning but you could be sweating by the end of the day. Therefore, make sure to have multiple layers on so you can take off or put on one when needed.

Always have a rain jacket or umbrella on hand

It always rains in Rhode Island, so you have to have rain gear all the time. One day I went to class without anything because it was supposed to be clear skies and I walked out to it down pouring. All in all, I will never not bring rain gear again.

Keep multi-season clothing with you, especially if you're away at college

The weather can honestly go from summer to fall back to summer then winter real quick, therefore you shouldn't take all your summer clothes home with you when going home. You may want some tank tops in order to layer (as mentioned in 1#) or even just wear with jeans on a slightly warmer day.

Accessorize to keep warm 

Scarves and hats are a must if you live in Rhode Island. Plus it makes outfits extra cute and adds a little oomph. And you can stay on trend with upcoming new designs and patterns for a lower cost then a shirt might be.
