If you're wondering it's freezing here and we have a foot of
snow. We shoveled the driveway 7 times today and have to do it a few more. The
snow just will NOT let up. I pretty much did everything that you would expect
from the cold, sledding, hot chocolate, snowman making, and you know just
taking your dog for a walk in 12 inches of snow. The snow isn't just normal
snow it's super wet and heavy. You could say that I had a few outfit changes throughout
the day, but there are a few essentials that I have kept on all throughout the
day:
Under Armor Storm Sweatpants: Usually I wear snow pants, but
I was curious if these would keep me warm. My legs haven’t been cold all day. I’ve
sat in the snow, been snowed on, had snowballs chucked at me and these pants
have kept me warm through all of it.
Fleece Lined Long Spandex: These things are a life saver! I
wore them under my sweatpants and they just added to the warmth. They are just
a must for winter because you can go running in them or wear them under
anything to keep you extra warm.
Fuzzy Socks: Fuzzy socks may just be an obsession of mine. I
wear these all the time. I don’t know what I would do without them. I’m not
even kidding. I l o v e t h e m .
Winter Jacket: I would recommend one that is water proof or
snow-proof, especially if you’re going to be in the snow a lot. I wear this on
a daily basis.
Gloves: I’m not one to like the cold a lot, but these are
the best invention ever. They are like socks, but for your hands. You could be
doing anything outside and these would not fail you.
Things I have changed throughout the day: Sweatshirt and
T-shirt: These few things get wet fairly quickly in my case. If I don’t have my
hood up then snow just goes down my back and into my sweatshirt. If you’re
going to be outside for awhile I would recommend having an extra pair of these
with you.
Hopefully you’re reading this while all warm and curled up
in bed with some hot chocolate.
