Ah, good ol’ Canadian winters. At best they’re frigid, at worst we’re living in a constant snowstorm. And dressing cute in the winter ain’t easy. As much as you may want to wear your mini skirt with over the knee boots, sometimes it’s just too damn cold.

Faux Fur: A Hibernating Bloggers Best Friend

I tend to go into hibernation mode in the wintertime…surfacing rarely for food or the odd necessity. Case in point the day we took these photos, we had been on a 3+ day hibernation stint when we finally decided to venture out for coffee.
Seeing as how it was freezing out all I wanted to do was bundle myself up in something soft, fluffy, and warm. So I opted to give these new faux fur goodies a try. To be honest…this wasn’t the way I had envisioned debuting these beauties and part of me was kicking myself in the ass for dropping the ball on styling these in a cuter way before the deep freeze. But blame it on the hibernation I suppose!
Nevertheless my boring outfit consisting of boyfriend jeans and chunky turtleneck needed a pick me upper and the faux fur accessories brought some life into the mix. Not sure if it was the obnoxiously oversized pom pom hat or the slightly-over-the-top fur stole, but the pieces added some fun textures to the look. It’s definitely nothing glamorous but truly represents a hibernating blogger’s ootd for a coffee run in between cozy snuggle sessions.
What are some of your favourite things to do in the winter?
