Apparently, I never knew what a real winter felt like until now: the year of the polar vortex. Last year, it snowed only three times over the course of several months. This year, it snowed three times in a matter of days. Let’s just say, my dog (who is also experiencing his first real winter) is not pleased.
While I still refuse to buy a puffer jacket, you’ll probably find me decked out in all other winter gear, trying to hold on for dear life until spring. My winter uniform usually involves a chunky knit sweater and faux leather leggings (underneath of which there’s another layer of thermal wear). I also prefer schlepping around the city with a crossbody bag so that I can keep my glove-covered hands properly shoved into my wool coat. So tell me, how are you surviving this year’s winter? I’d love to know — unless you live in California or Arizona, in which case we’re not currently on speaking terms.

We’re battling a heat wave over here!! WIsh we had snow then I would have an opportunity to wear those cool outfits!
hehe love this! that sweater and the gloves are so fun!
I honestly don’t know how you’re doing without a puffer jacket? I got one for the -40 days and I’m so glad I did. But yes lately I’ve been trying to go without it as a way of rebelling against this way too long winter.
Also wearing tights under jeans is a great way of keeping warm 😉
