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.

  WHAT WAS POPULAR in 2020 Top posts of the year were a mix,  but the one that was most popular was the TOUCH OF GOLD, followed by fashions, and people seemed to be interested in a few gardening DIYS, which was a kind of a surprise . I guess when we were all stuck in lockdowns , doing something different is something we want to try.  From baking to gardening , or clearing out closets, fixing up our space or adding some new plants - a lot of things were new and totally different for many of us.  THE 10 TOP POSTs of 2020 A TOUCH OF GOLD ,  a look at some of my favourite pieces of jewelry.

Pockets please!!/ fashion

  Well as the title says…. Pocket s please!  This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally  managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything.  Why???  When I think back there usually  were pocket inserts nicely sewn  on inside of slacks or dresses.  Now you rarely find that .  I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in.  Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets.   Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets.  Do you like outfit with pockets?
