'Easy to fold up' £14 raincoat that comes in 8 colours may be perfect for TRNSMT
A travel raincoat may be an essential item for the Glasgow festival next month as the weather remains unpredictable.
Despite being near the end of June, the weather in the UK remains unpredictable, with rain, sun and thunderstorms predicted in upcoming forecasts. With many of us counting down to upcoming outdoor events, such as organised walks, concerts and festivals, it can be difficult to plan what to wear.
With temperatures are by no means on the chilly side, one essential item people may want to carry around is a travel raincoat. Lightweight enough to be carried around in a bag, these handy coats will keep festival-goers dry if hit with a sudden downpour.
For those considering buying one, Amazon is selling UNIQUEBELLA Travel Raincoat for £14.59, with the black edition currently down to £13.99. With shoppers praising it for being "lightweight" and able to "fold up into a handbag" it could be a must-have item for TRNSMT next month.
Available in black, yellow, purple, white, khaki, orange, lemon yellow and white with grey, shoppers will be able to match this 'trendy' raincoat to their chosen festival outfit. Described as both waterproof and fashionable, the raincoat is made from a high-quality, eco-friendly and transparent EVA material.
Featuring a waterproof drawstring hood and buttoned closures, this raincoat was made to keep users dry in the summer rain from head to toe. Available in sizes M, L and XL, shoppers can choose the coat that will best suit them by referring to the size guide.
The raincoat is also said to be lightweight, soft and breathable, allowing wearers to move freely when worn. And once the weather clears, the jackets are quick to dry so can be neatly folded away back into a backpack or travel bag without taking up too much room.

Product Description
Another popular raincoat on Amazon is the 33,000ft Women's Rain Jacket. Retailing at £36.99, the jacket is available in sizes 8 to 22 and comes in 14 different colours. Described as lightweight, this jacket is made from a ripstop, high density polyester and can easily be folded into a travel bag.

Over 300 have bought the UNIQUEBELLA Travel Raincoat in the last 30 days, with many shoppers leaving reviews sharing how they enjoyed that the jacket was both fashionable and practical.
One happy shopper wrote: "I haven't worn this raincoat out yet, but I can say that the quality is good and it's actually looks quite stylish on. I purchased the longer length and at 5'8", it covers to well below mid calf.
"Ideal in very rainy weather. Hopefully it will keep me dry. It's easy to fold up as well, so should fit easily into rucksacks/ cross body bags etc; when not needed."
With another five-star reviewer adding: "Covers me up completely, bought larger size so it fits easily over a jacket. Folds up small enough to fit in a handbag and always be to hand. Also it's lightweight for the summer downpours. Good value for money."
However, one shopper struggled with the sizing. They said: "Unfortunately the sleeves were too short and the item isn't as transparent as it appears in the photo.
"I'm 6'2' and ordered a large after reading the size chart, but the sleeves are shorter than stated. Shame because it's of a decent enough quality!" While another noted a way to improve the coat: "Would be better with pockets."
Despite this, a delighted shopper said: "Purchased this as I had to have a rain coat as I had a lot of outdoor gigs and we had so much rain in 2023. It looks really trendy and everyone commented on it. Comes in a very handy clutch bag style storage which it was easy to get back into. I definitely had the coolest rain coat out of all my friends."
With one more adding: "I bought this as I was going to Italy and the forecast was not good but I wanted to still look like I was on holiday as it was May after all. This was ideal as I could fold it up and put it in my bag to take out with me for when there was a sudden downpour. It kept me dry completely and equally the coat dried off pretty quick as well."

The 7 best under-the-seat bags you can take on any plane including super stylish rucksack that fits 12 days of clothes
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WITH airline fees rocketing higher than ever, savvy travellers are finding the best way to save money is by packing smart. One of the easiest hacks? Bringing an underseat cabin bag that fits within strict airline personal item size limits so you don't have to pay for an overhead locker. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 20 Fabulous tried some underseat cabin bags to see which ones held the most outfits and had the best features Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 I managed to get 11 dresses in Amazon's offering (pictured) - but one other brand beat it... Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON Of course, you'll have to maybe ditch bringing four outfit changes per activity - but underseat bags keep your cash where it belongs - in your wallet. But which bag is currently the best on the market and how many outfits can it fit in? Ahead of the looming school holidays, Fabulous put some underseat bags to the test… Amazon Xkdoai Travel Backpack - £17.99 20 Amazon's Xkdoia bag is sleek and comes with numerous pockets and features Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 The £17.99 bag was one of the best options from the bunch, in terms of size and savvy storage Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 It has a 20L capacity and also included a handy liquids bag Credit: AMAZON With Ryanair's ruthless 40x20x25cm underseat baggage dimensions, it is no wonder that some brands are making bags tailored specially for this restriction. More on bags BARGAIN BAG Fashion fans rush to snap up £10 Primark bag dubbed a dupe of £1,600 buy And this is true for Xkdoai Travel Backpack, which fits both this and EasyJet's 45x36x20cm measurements. It holds 20 litres of baggage, and opens 180 degrees like a suitcase - although there are numerous handy pockets for devices and toiletries. In order to be more secure, it has a hidden security zipped pocket at the back of the backpack for your mobile phone, passport, wallet and other valuables. Our verdict - 10/10 Award: Best value Outfits fitted - 11 dresses + passport + toiletries There is no wonder travellers are rushing out to snap up this small, compact, yet totally helpful bag, which is currently 44 per cent off down from the original £30.99 price. I love how it opens like a suitcase, but you don't have the faff of wheeling it through a city if you are on a weekend break. I loved exploring the handy pockets and thinking about where I'd stack my make-up, shoes and tablet for my next trip. Personally I think you can't go wrong with a stylish black bag, but I loved the fact there were six colours online to choose from, including purple and grey. It was hard to beat this bag among the selection - and my partner said he'd be tempted to use it too. Morrisons 20 Morrisons' Lugg bag has wheels that can be detached to fit Ryanair's dimensions Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON As part of Morrisons' WIGIG (when it's gone, it's gone) range, is this silver underseat cabin bag by the brand Lugg. It's made from a strong ABS material which helps protect it against shocks and scratches on your travels. It also has 360 degree wheels - which can be removed so the bag is compliment with the Ryanair dimensions, and has a three-step telescopic handle for easy grip. Our verdict - 7.5/10 Outfits fitted - 9 dresses + passport + toiletries Morrisons' underseat bags have been all the rage lately, so I was excited to try out their latest offering. I loved the stylish grey colour, and the height of the removable wheels made it feel almost the same size as a cabin bag, but without having to pay the extra flying fees. The wheels were extremely easy to detach and reattach if you were in a hurry at the airline desk and running late like I always am. It was quite hard squeezing my clothes in, however, and it didn't come with any internal dividers to organise my belongings - but if you are looking for a classic case that fits the brief, this could certainly do the trick. It's only available in stores, but if you see it, I'd definitely recommend grabbing one for you or a family member. Primark Trolley Cabin Bag - £25 20 Primark's Trolley Cabin Bag has wheels and a handle if you want to drag it around Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 The bag is 1cm too big for Ryanair but it complies with Easyjet's underseat dimensions Credit: PRIMARK Primark's Trolley Cabin Bag works well in three ways - either as a pull-along bag on wheels, as a handbag with the two top straps, or it can be put on of a suitcase over the handles with the flap. Sadly at 26x40x20cm, it is just 1cm too large for Ryanair, but it would work with EasyJet and a large number of other airlines for their underseat requirements. It has a large main zipped compartment, as well as an external zipped pocket to the front for extra organisation. Our verdict - 8.5/10 Outfits fitted - 12 dresses + passport + toiletries Many people head to Primark to find an affordable travel bag - and this one comes in three colours depending on how jazzy you are feeling - black, zebra or leopard print. I was pleasantly surprised how much I could easily roll-pack inside. It was also a huge perk to have the squishy bag having wheels, so I could have the option of wheeling it if I fancied. I would have ranked it higher if I could have used it for Ryanair as well as EasyJet. Cabin Max Travel Hack 20L Hand Luggage Bag - £30 20 This stylish Cabin Max bag proved to be a hit due to its 20L capacity and design Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 The lightweight bag weighs just 0.6kg Credit: CABIN MAX 20 It opens like a suitcase for easy packing Credit: CABIN MAX This compact ladies travel backpack by Cabin Max is compatible for laptop devices up to 13 inches - with 20L of space in total. It has an an easy access top pocket for purses, phones and travel documents, and its lightweight design weighs just 0.6kg. Our verdict - 10/10 Award: Most stylish Outfits fitted - 10 dresses + passport + toiletries If you are looking for a travel backpack but don't want to compromise on style - this is the beautiful bag is for you. I absolutely loved the chic cream design and the inside was like a Tardis, fitting in 10 day dresses, plus my travel essentials. I love how it opened like a suitcase, but had a privacy pocket at the back for my tablet and passport - and loved the flat at the back so you could hook it over suitcase handles if you wished. Will definitely use this for my next girls' trip away. Cabin Max Metz 20L 40x20x25cm Underseat Cabin Bag - £30 20 This mint green bag managed to fit a whopping 11 dresses - which is incredible for a weekend away Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 It also includes a number of helpful pockets, including some at the front Credit: CABIN MAX 20 The Cabin Max bag comes in nine fun colours to choose from Credit: CABIN MAX Coming in nine fun colours is Cabin Max's Metz 20L 40x20x25cm Underseat Cabin Bag, which weighs just 500g. It also boasts 20L in storage and includes a front organiser pocket with sections for an iPad or travel documents. Not only does it have a padded top carry handle, but there is also a side bottle holder and rear trolley strap too. Our verdict - 9.5/10 Outfits fitted - 11 dresses + passport + toiletries Backpacks are great for weekends away as you don't have to lug them around on your arm - and this one proved to be such a hit. I managed to roll 11 dresses inside, and I loved how there was two sections inside so I could keep items organised. I loved the mint green colour and how comfy the padded straps were - and would definitely reach for it if I had a trip coming up. Cabin Max Gozo Cabin Bag Expandable Holdall - £35 20 The pink travel bag can be expanded for extra capacity if you aren't travelling on Ryanair Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 It has a shoulder strap and a band so it can attach to your suitcase handles Credit: CABIN MAX 20 It has a padded laptop compartment for devices up to 13.3 inch Credit: CABIN MAX The beauty of Cabin Max's Gozo Cabin Bag Expandable Holdall is that its size can be adjusted down to suit Ryanair's dimensions - or it can be expanded if you can have a little more space. It's 40x20x25cm dimensions are perfect for the Ryanair free bag allowance, but it's expandable 40x30x20cm size fits the free bag rules of airlines like Wizz, Volotea or Vueling. This means it has 20L internal capacity, which rises to 24L when expanded - and it has a separate padded laptop compartment for devices up to 13.3 inch. It also has a helpful storage design with three internal zipped pockets and two open pockets - and can be carried with the handles, a shoulder strap or over a suitcase with a handle sleeve. Our verdict - 9.5/10 Outfits fitted - 12 dresses + passport + toiletries I was hugely impressed by this pink bag, which fitted in a whopping 12 dresses. This is more than enough for a weekend break away and, if you are like me, and want multiple outfit changes. I loved how it could be expanded when you aren't confined by Ryanair rules - meaning it is great value for money. It also comes in a navy blue colour if the marshmallow pink one is too bold for you. Tripp Shell Print Vanity Case 20 This gorgeous shell print vanity case from Tripp would be look great on a holiday Credit: BECKY PEMBERTON 20 The 1.4kg case has a 14.6L capacity Credit: TRIPP 20 The vanity case had one divider inside, which could separate a pair of shoes Credit: TRIPP Tripp specialises in suitcases and luggage, and so it's no surprise they have created a chic offering for the underseat restrictions. Their 25x37x17cm vanity case allows you to take 14.6 litres when you fly and it weighs just 1.2kg. It also comes in a range of colours, including this shell design - and there is also a chic dark green one too. Our verdict - 7/10 Outfits fitted - 9 dresses + passport + toiletries If you have ever wanted to feel like a stylish celebrity, you should consider travelling with a vanity case instead of a lumpy backpack. While it may not have had all the bells and whistles of some travel bags - and just had one divider zipped flap inside - it looked smart and was protective with its hard exterior. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I could fit inside, but they are a tad awkward to carry by themselves if they aren't resting on a large suitcase - despite it coming with an adjustable shoulder strap.

Mum reveals how she saves £600 whilst on holiday thanks to a sneaky £12 lunch hack
Plus, 20 last minute money saving holiday tips from dodging airport drop-off fees to free lounge access CHEAP EATS Mum reveals how she saves £600 whilst on holiday thanks to a sneaky £12 lunch hack Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SAVVY couple have claimed they saved £600 on their holiday thanks to a £12 lunch hack. Mum-of-two Nicola Lewis, 50, tries to get the most she possibly can for her money when on holiday. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 A savvy couple have claimed they saved £600 on their holiday thanks to a £12 lunch hack Credit: SWNS 4 The couple will always make a sandwich and grab a piece of fruit to take away from their breakfast buffet Credit: SWNS And one of her most budget-friendly tips is to book a half-board holiday, so you can make a packed lunch during breakfast to take out with you. The professional organiser from Essex, said she and husband, Graham Lewis, 50, will always make a sandwich and grab a piece of fruit to take away from their breakfast buffet and eat later in the day. And thanks to a set of £12 collapsible food containers from Amazon, she can slip them into her bag. Nicola believes that the handy trick has saved her and her husband £600 on their recent week-long trip to Cyprus, as they didn't need to go and splash out on a meal at lunch time - which would usually set them back around £85 a day. Read more on budget holidays TROPIC WONDER I dumped NHS job for life in budget holiday spot…rent's £150 & meal out is £2 Nicola said: "I do check with the hotel that it's allowed beforehand - and I've never been told no. "Looking at the reduction of waste, those buffets are always overstocked - and you've paid for it if it was available at breakfast. "Some people have five plates of food at breakfast - but we're not big eaters so we can't have that much there and then. "Holidays are so expensive now already, and spending extra on a lunchtime meal is a big expense." She added how as a child, her parents would always make her pack a picnic from the breakfast offering where they were staying. Now, as a mum of two children aged 21 and 17 - she has kept the habit. How to experience six European destinations for less than £500 Typically, Nicola will opt for a bread roll filled with meats or cheeses with some salad. She will then also grab a piece of fruit and fit it into her collapsible boxes. Depending on what they are doing that day, the couple will then either take the lunchbox out with them or pop it in the hotel fridge to return to at lunchtime. She said: "If we had gone out for a meal at lunch, I reckon we would have spent £85 per meal - for 7 days - it really adds up." Of course, this works out to around £42 each for lunch, which is certainly a rather pricey spend. 4 And thanks to a set of £12 collapsible food containers from Amazon, she can slip them into her bag Credit: SWNS However, Nicola added that the pair work hard to be able to afford a holiday, so when they are away they try and budget the best they can. She shared: "I bought a pack of collapsible food containers from Amazon for £12 and I slip them into my bag as I go down for breakfast. "The same with taking a reusable water bottle down to fill up too, since you often have to pay for water abroad. "You can wash them in your hotel room sink so they're ready for the next day - it's a clever idea to save money." Another woman has shared how she saved £1000 on a package holiday by booking everything herself.
