Below Zero

When the wind chill is too chilled

Source - Amazon

The winter season in the Midwest is volatile.  The first snowfall can be early or delayed based on average expectancy.  The snowfall can be flurries or impressive.  I have witnessed two blizzards.  Average temperatures can go out the window either way - atypical mild or atypical frozen.  I have experienced at least one polar vortex.  I have also walked to college campus from my home three blocks away in subzero weather.  (Needless to say, those who made it got extra credit.). January tends to offer a mixed bag - light snowfall, inches of snowfall, calm weather, mild temperatures (such as in the thirties), or frozen tundra when the wind chill is in the double digits and the morning lows are in the single digits.  When meteorologists emphasize warning from undue skin exposure to the cold, listen and bundle up because physical harm can occur in a matter of minutes.

When the wind chill is too chilled.

My buzz words for this look book are simple - cozy casual, comfy relaxed, and layers.  Winter fashion sense defined.  In January cold, the holidays do not seem to be long ago.  The holiday season is filled with cozy and comfy.  Below Zero is a reflection of my go-to apparel and accessories when I desire December memories in winter weather I desire to forget.

With that said, bundle up as you head out the door.  Keep warm in winter always.

I hope that Below Zero offers insight, interest, and/or intrigue.  I designed the look book with intent - to express my take on indoor winter fashion.  I also designed the look book with you in mind - tap into inspiration for affordable women’s style that is also practical.  Of course, fashion is an art form and therefore subjective.

Remember always that in dangerous winter weather, safety and care come well ahead of fashion sense, which tends to go out the window for more appropriate reasons.

On that note…
