Snow Suits

Today I slipped on the snow on the way to work at least ten times — with one ending me on my ass. Remind me never to wear those shoes again, ugh, and to buy a big clunky pair of snow boots, ugh. It is a pretty known fact that I, a California girl, am not that into winter, for reasons like the one above plus many more. Yeah and I live in Berlin, I know, it is ridiculous. So trying to be positive about it, I thought since I am always writing about the Little Things I Love, maybe I should make a list about the little things I love about winter, there has to be some right? 

I love how good all the citrus fruits taste...mmmm clementines...I love sledding, kinda...snowboarding is cool, but I haven't done it in years, hot chocolate is pretty good....hmmm....these things are all nice, but I would take their summer counterparts anytime. But then I came across a few of these pics....and I will say I do love a good looking man in the snow in a winter-y outfit, that is for sure.

Snow Leopard

All thrift, over-knee boots ALDO
After the most freezing night I have ever felt, I woke up and Berlin was completely covered in snow. I decided to wear a sheer over-sized leopard print blouse that I was planning to sell but somehow ended up in my closet — I tucked it into some jeans with some over-the-knee boots and voilà, snow leopard. I will admit that over-the-knee boots and leopard sounds provocative, but this was certainly far from that. Oh and of course I wore a cardigan, gloves, a coat, a hat and a really big scarf over it as well.
