As Spring Break approaches, college students everywhere busily squeeze in their final plans for what they hope will be a memorable getaway from mid-terms, presentations, and lab reports. To help them take the guesswork out of what to buy for the weather in any destination, WeareverTheWeather.com offers a free and easy-to-use shopping tool called Fashion Forecast.

Travelistas, as the site's visitors are dubbed, simply enter a location, date, and type of occasion into the Fashion Forecast tool on the homepage. The system then displays a virtual closet of outerwear, tops, bottoms and shoes that match the current weather forecast for the desired destination, date and occasion. Visitors can narrow the assortment by type and pricepoint as well as put together outfits to recommend to friends on virtually any social network and email.

"I developed this site after years of travel myself and being totally confused about what to wear for the weather," explains Renae Virata, founder of WeareverTheWeather.com. "I would go from one end of the country to the other in one or two days or abroad and really had to learn how to pack better."

The site, which is updated bi-weekly, includes lines from hot retailers such as The Buckle, French Connection, and Mango, among others. In addition to Fashion Forecast, spring breakers can get an extra dose of spring break help through the special "Spring Break 2012" page. It features virtual spring break outfits for different types of trips, trip soundtracks to download, and tools to plan last-minute getaways.

"I wish I had had a tool like this to help me choose more wisely and shop more easily," adds Virata. "I hope Fashion Forecast and our special Spring Break page can help students plan better and in a more fun way for their trips."
