Fashion on the Slopes

The North Face‘s Skinster Pants , $199, and Columbia’s McQueen Boots, $140

It’s been an extremely mild winter thus far, but we are holding out hope for some fun snow days, and wintery fashion, ahead. What’s more fun than hitting the slopes with friends and family?! We have the answer: hitting the slopes in style.

There are currently so many options for fashionable winter gear- whether you’re skiing, snowboarding, or falling down repeatedly, take a moment to be chic in the natural surroundings.

The North Face Pants, pictured above: They’re like skinny jeans for skiing, in a tough charcoal grey that are waterproof and breathable, while the Columbia McQueen Boots feature waterproof suede, lined with fleece, Omni-Heat insulation and thermal reflective technology. Look aprés ski ready in both of these items!

Hot Chilly’s Women’s Micro-Elite Chamois Midweight Stirrup Bottom, $55

Clever name, high functionality. These stirrup leggings are a win-win.

The North Face Women’s Greta Down Jacket, $299

This puffy coat screams snow bunny! And there’s nothing hotter than winter white.

Patagonia Women’s Capilene 3 Midweight Baselayer Crew in Magenta, $49

Try this basic crew neck for essential layering. It’s warm and durable in a gorgeous magenta hue.

Forever 21 Pom Pom Knit Gloves, $7.50

These gloves simply can’t be beat. Pom-poms and a pinky mauve knit hue make for cozy, very affordable, fashion.
The North Face Ear Gear, $20

Hat hair be gone! Headbands are such a hot accessory for winter sports, and this one will look sporty and sleek with EVERYTHING.

Ray Ban RB4163 Sunglasses, $140

Shades aren’t only for summer. Winter snow can be blinding too. Try a classic, yet subtly rounded cat eye shape for an extra glam factor.

Forever 21 Two Tone Purl Knit Scary, $8.99

Finish off your look with a cute, chunky scarf. You can wear it out later too!

Always get the most out of your ensemble, and use that chairlift as your runway!

Forever 21 Pick of the Day: Silky Spring PJ Pants, $12.80

by Julia DiNardo

It’s so hard to find cool pajamas in prints that aren’t to matronly or too childish. The print, and the price is right with these Silky Spring PJ Pants, $12.80, a soft, silky poly-spandex woven blend with the right balance of tradition and style. Pair with a tank, tee, and on those extra cold days, our favorite casual luxe item — a cashmere hoodie!

Forever 21 Pick of the Day: Striped Ponte Dress, $14.90

by Julia DiNardo

Nautical has become a HUGE trend over the past year, and I can’t help but love its crisp simplicity! During the summer, there was a Tommy Hilfiger beach cover up dress for $79, that I really really wanted, but unfortunately, at the time, sold out in my size. Now, I should be glad, because this Striped Ponte Dress, $14.90, is a dead ringer for it, and at a fraction of the price, count me in! Navy or black paired with white stripes feels so contemporary and fresh, and is just right to wear in the start of 2012 in the form of a dress, blazer, or something beach-bound.
