My umbrella is too sensible for the outfit, but rain is forecast
Committee ruling requested. I planned a dramatic wool coat and loafers for dinner, then checked the forecast and remembered my only umbrella is a sturdy golfing item in fluorescent navy. Do I accept looking prepared, or get damp with some dignity?

Take the umbrella. I once chose aesthetic suffering and arrived at drinks looking like a startled spaniel in suede.
Prepared is the new punk. Fluorescent navy says you reject weather-based conformity.
Bring it, then leave it conspicuously with the cloakroom as though your driver will retrieve it later.
You’ve definitely got an opinion.
