Even though I've lived in Michigan for a very long time, I'm still kind of a cold-weather wuss. I am not (and probably never will be) one of those brave souls who wears cute little flats in the cold snow. In fact, the window of time that I assign to appropriate flat-wearing-weather is very, very, small. And if I'm being totally honest, I always wear my UGGs to and from work (I bring my "cute shoes" with me in a bag); and some days I am so cold that I don't change out of my boots when sitting at my desk.
So, there. I have confessed! :)
But, my real point is that my Winter work-wear advice is three-fold:
1. Layers. Layering is a given. More specifically, jackets are great over blouses and sweaters and will keep you nice and toasty. You can stay even warmer by layering a scarf over all of that.
2. Tights. Tights are your best friend in the cold. Buy different kinds to change it up. There are so many cute patterned and colored tights out there right now!
3. Boots. Wear warm boots to work and then change into your cute shoes at work. Better yet, wear cute boots or booties at work!
Stay warm, babies!!
