What to Wear in a Winter Wonderland


So far we've been having a fairly mild winter, I am sure as soon as I publish this post the frigid air will blow over our province to keep us on our toes.  We've had a few really cold days but we've also enjoyed some really nice mild days such as the day I wore this.  I shot these picture when I was at the lake and generally wouldn't walk around in this outfit but I was imagining I was at a ski resort like Mount Tremblant, Banff, Revelstoke, etc.  I love snowboarding and we are finally at a stage as a family that we have been tossing around the idea of doing a family skiing/snowboarding trip vs. a hot winter holiday.  So here is what I would wear to roam around the little ski village after a long day hitting the slopes.  Leggings may not be pants but they make my legs look way longer, especially when I wearing a over-sized poncho and big Sorels to keep my toes toasty warm.  Side note, if you have long and cold winters these Sorels are the way too go.  My toes always get cold, ALWAYS, and I've tried many types of boots and finally I paid the $$ and bought these ones.  There are two pairs that look exactly the same but you need the Caribou ones because they are good to -40C. 


Okay, back to the outfit.   How adorable is my FabFunFit mitts and headband set?  Seriously, can't get enough of this set and have been wearing it non-stop (to get $10 off your FabFunFit box click here).  I 100% love how this outfit came together, it cozy, chic, trendy and I would wear a version of this outfit to work, but I would probably switch the Sorels out for some OTKB :)  





Have a great weekend everyone!

    1. We have many veautbeauplaces right here in SK. I love being in the open air to just take a few deep breaths. In many ways I wish we could live on an acrage to just be able to leave the business behind.

    1. Thanks friend. Last week was cold, cold, cold but this week it seems to be getting at least bareable to be outside for a few minutes.

  4. Winter is here. Winter wear needs to be chosen carefully, so that it can offer the best bang for buck, as well as doing the job right.

    1. Agreed. We spend a lot to be ready for the cold and to encourage us to get on outside and enjoy the fresh, crisp, air.

    1. Hahaha. It usually is cold, which other would classify as freezing, but it's really been freezing the last week or so. Finally the sun came out and the wind died down so we could go outside without everything freezing up. :)

    1. Hahahaha. Lana the last week was honestly like being stuck in a deep freeze. You couldn't have your hands exposed even for like a minute or they would start tingling. That being said, the temps are going to return to normal, -20C to -25C. :) Thanks for the lovely comment.
