Not A Faux Snow This Time

We have been watching the forecast online all week as regards the HUGE snowstorm on it's way to us.  

This first model says 14-20 inches for our area.

Channel 10 says 18-24 inches and just north of our area.... over two feet.

 But as for today, the sun was out in a clear, crisp blue sky.  It was 28 degrees when I took these outdoor photos, and it was too cold for me, even though I was decked out in jeans, boots, a wool peacoat by Calvin Klein, a warm infinity scarf by Madison 88, and a vintage Ben Berger fur hat that I have owned since our Maryland days.... probably made that purchase back in 2001 or 2002 and it was one of the best purchases I have ever made when it comes to having a great warmth factor.

This is a similar hat, a vintage Union labeled hat.

Just cannot beat the warmth of a fur hat

 My husband swept the light snow from yesterday off the driveway a bit and the pups helped by running around the forest and stain out of his way.

They adore the cold.

 See what a gorgeous day we had!

 Don't let it's beauty fool you.

We will wake up to snow tomorrow and for 24-36 hours it will be falling so fast that it will be difficult to capture good photos.

It will be a blur of snow.

We never get wind with our snow.... but this time they have forecast wind along with it, so never say never I guess.

See you tomorrow... or not.... if the power goes out.

If that happens you can find me/us in front of the fireplace sipping hot liquids.

A Look To Keep You Warm

 

Although we have no snow on the ground, trust me.... winter ain't leaving anytime soon if these temperatures have anything to say about it.

Warm pieces can still be found, if not in your local department stores, then check online... Google what it is you want.

I had been eye-balling the faux fur infinity scarves for a couple of months and finally bit the bullet and purchased one and WOW, am I glad I made this purchase since it totally keeps the wind and any cold air off my neck.

Plus, I find it to be a pretty neat fashion statement and the faux fur just feels luxuriously soft under my chin.

You can wind it around twice or simply wear it in a long look draped from your neck and down onto your chest.

I have worn mine both ways.

Mine was purchased at The Loft, but was the last one they had in our local store... but at least it was marked down a few dollars.  I have seen these online from the $25-$500 range, so it's a case of 'pick your price'.  

Just how badly to you want to break the bank?

Go to Google or any of the search engines and type in faux fur infinity scarf and numerous selections will pop up.

Let me know if you get one!  

I'll try to post more photos of mine soon.

Have fun shopping all you cold weather gals!
