I recently got asked by my friend Tara if I could do a cold weather blog considering she lives in Spain, and I guess the weather isn't as lovely as here in SD! Being that I live in San Diego and a cold winter day here is what many would consider Summer, meaning dressing for extreme drops in temperature is a rarity for me. I do travel though, and often times I head off to some pretty chilly parts of the States. Therefore I compiled some of my travel photos to show how I conquer the cold, without sacrificing style. Hope this helps keep all of you a little bit warmer this winter season.
First things first when trying to keep warm, carry a hot beverage. Not only will it warm you from the inside out, but it will also double as a nice hand warmer!
Chunky knit sweaters are all the rage right now, and perfect for a cold night. The fact that this one is navajo inspired is even better. Tights are also always a must in the cold. Now, if it is really cold, I suggest wearing tights on leggings under your jeans. Trust me, life saver!
You probably saw this picture few days ago on my blog as I was recently faced with some extremely chilly weather on a trip to Portland.. I am not usually a huge fan of layering, but this sweater with the jacket was just too cute... and toasty! I put on my thickest leggings as well as my black shearling wedges with high socks underneath (for added warmth of course).
This picture kind of sucks, but it is a great example of a warm weather outfit. You can never go wrong with a classic black peacoat. I paired my coat during an especially cold day with a long sleeve shirt underneath (I love when the sleeves are longer than the coat), gray thigh high suede boots, and of course a fun chunky scarf.
Okay, so hopefully you don't take me seriously with this one, as I am pretty much making fun of myself. These pictures are so silly that my mom insisted I take. These were actually for my sister who lives in the cold & I was just modeling so we could send her pics. In reality though, these 2 accessories are actually really fun for an especially cold day. These are the sort of pieces that make me really wanna go to the snow.
