Keeping Warm

So here you have it! What I wore during Vancouver's cold spell (literally the entire time, except I changed my underwear and socks). Oh, and I was wearing gloves while prancing in the snow and in these photos my gloves were in my pocket. Can I just say that while most of me was comfy and warm my legs were freezing? Jeans are horrible in the cold. I realize this every year but assume the following year my jeans will get their act together and start warming my legs up.

I am going to invent the following jeans to prevent future leg frost bite:
Fleece lined jeans. (I just googled them, they already exist)
Sweat pant lined jeans.
Hot water bottle lined jeans.
Bubble wrap lined jeans (these have nothing to do with being cold but I think they'd come in handy when I walk into my coffee table).

Don't bother copying those ideas. Talking about them in a blog post is the same as patenting the idea.

  2. Sometimes in the winter, I wear my fleece-lined tights under my jeans to stay warm. It works pretty well!

  5. Cute! I like how you draped the scarf over your blue coat for a patterned contrast.

    As for dressing for a cold snap: knee-length wool skirts, tights and knee-high boots are the way to go. Seriously. So much warmer than jeans.

  9. Fleece lined jeans may be the best inventions ever. I'm from the East originally and my mum used to force us to wear them, even though I felt like they made me look like a snowman. Makes such a difference though. And absolutely loving this outfit, the colours are amazing!

  10. Bahahaa, you are amazing! My favorite is the hot water bottle lined jeans. Also LOVE your bag!! I have been contemplating a coach bag (either the Madison Lindsey in black & gold, or the Madison Marielle in black & gold - cannot decide between!) and this makes me want one even more! Gorgeous!
