Chic and tall riding boots are great, but if you live in a snowy town, with potentially icy walkways, you need to be prepared.  When your center of balance is already askew, you don't want to be trotting around precariously on ice.  Trust me. L.L. Bean boots are classic, rugged, functional, but also very on trend when paired with skinny pants and other stylish winter accessories. A cross-body bag also helps to keep your hands and arms free, ensuring you keep your balance.

Where I live, we have a few more months of terrible weather ahead, so a nice puffy coat will keep one warm.  You can find some great deals on coats at this point in the season on line.  A lot of stores will also be significantly clearing out their winter wear to make way for spring items (already!? wasn't it just Christmas last week or something?)

And don't forget your salve!! I love this rose salve, it's multi-purpose, lightly fragrant, non-greasy, and hey, you could even try putting it on your stretch marks.  Not saying it's going to help any, but it can't hurt.
