DRESSING FOR THE COLD

🎄🏂🎄🎄🏂🏂🎄🎄🎄

Holiday time is when some of us head outside, whether to go skating, tobogganing or skiing.  Nothing is worst than having cold feet or being cold. I can say I do know about is cold feet, having spent time living in a extreme cold climate with temperatures  minus 30s ,  its one thing i can say is not fun.

We were always out in the winter whether on hikes or skiing.  Staying warm and comfortable was very important .

So here are some necessary items that will keep you warm .  I should mention if you are out in the cold don't wear your jeans, they really are not warm enough and if get wet your going to be freezing cold.


HEAD to TOE outfit
  • SOCKS starting with the feet, a good sock   wool  mix or   other,  avoid cotton ones.
  • THERMAL wear is next, it helps to keep you warm and dry 
  • Fleece polar is also great to wear over , whether pants or top , it stays dry, repels water so won't get wet .  NOTE just don't stand close to fires as it will melt, especially childrens wear. Fleece pants are great for extreme cold  and sleeping in .
  • FOOTWEAR my favourite and most warm boots are Sorels, they are made to handle cold temperatures and will stay dry. The liners are removable , so you can dry them over heat.
  • PARKAS, down filled is  lightweight and warm,  other types  are those made with GORTEX, a breathable material . layers or zip out liners are also a good choice.
  • MITTS , TOGUES & SCARFS 


WOOL SOCKS for toasty toes  and a good fleece or sweater  for added warmth .




THERMALS  a definite needed item, under your pants







DOWN PARKAS  the ultimate  , for warmth , comfort and lightness. A longer version is great for keeping you warmer.






 A GREAT PAIR OF SORELS.....definitely. 
(I have a similar pair to these)





So now we are ready to head to the great outdoors.

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs  Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes!  I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses.  Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ??  Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number .  Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop .  Other than the price.style or quality.  Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important .  The style look and what suits you are all things to consider .  The UV protection is what really matters  also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why?  If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to  consider .  Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
