Winter Weather Wardrobe

My sister, Kristin, and I both live in Texas (although on different sides of the state), and right now we are seeing a rare sight... SNOW! Here's a look at my backyard. You may not be able to tell, but this is about 4 inches of snow and it's still falling. We are expecting about 7 inches by the time it is all said and done.

So that got me thinking about my winter weather wardrobe. I don't have a ton of really warm clothes, because that would be a waste of money since I live in Texas.

When it snows, or gets really cold, I dress in a bunch of layers. It may not be the most fashionable look, but it's all about staying warm. I wear leggings or tights, jeans, wool socks, boots, an under-shirt, a sweater, a puffy coat, gloves, a hat, a scarf, and finally, I put hand warmers in the gloves.

It may seem extreme, but if you've ever watched the news during a weather event, you know we REALLY play it up... "extended coverage", "team coverage", "extended team coverage". It is definitely important to keep people informed, because weather affects everybody, but it also means I am standing out on a bridge for 8 hours telling people to be careful on bridges.

So if it is snowing where you are, be careful and bundle up!!!
