Winter Lovin'

December 12, 2013

Imagine a cold snowy day. School has been canceled and you have a full day of relaxation. Your house is warm, you are wearing your favorite jammies with a pair of fuzzy socks, and you are enveloped in the softest plush throw. A huge mug of hot chocolate topped with sweet marshmallows is waiting to be drunk. You have a book to read, and laptop to catch up with social media. After the snow has stopped fallen, you walk outside to a winter wonderland. Icicles and snow adorn trees like a pendant of a necklace. The crisp air delivers a healthy pink glow to your nose and ears. The snow blankets everything in sight, and it sweetly caresses the world with a feathery touch. The snow at your feet are screaming at you to turn it into a snowball, for, or snowman. Could life get any better?

In my opinion, winter is the best season. It’s the time for comfy sweaters, enchanting snow, and soul-warming hot chocolate. It’s the season of cuddling up by the fireplace and reading a good book. Also, Christmas is coming soon! To top off this year’s winter, the sequel to one of my favorite movies, Anchorman 2, is coming out this Christmas! Yay!

There are countless thing I love about winter, and I have compiled a list of 5 of my favorite wintry things:

      1. Snowing

Who doesn’t love snow? Snow is so beautiful and unique, it feels very mystical. Shoveling the snow is a hassle, but every other aspect of snow is enjoyable! Many of my family memories have been made in the snow.

  2.  Christmas

Christmas is the happiest time of the year! Everyone is in good holiday cheer! Students and parents both have days off to celebrate! The best part of Christmas is not only the gift giving and receiving, it’s the love of friends and family.

3. No School!

No school and snow days call for a day of playing in the snow, then a long period of warmth and relaxation.

4.    Winter Attire

I love changing my wardrobe for the new season! During the winter, I love wearing all of my large warm sweaters, or layering crewnecks over oxfords. I finally get to take out my heavy winter coats. Currently, I am obsessed with ll Bean duck boots. They are the perfect combination of a rain boot and a snow boot! They are my go-to boot, and are perfect for walking home in winter conditions. Pair them with skinny jeans, a vest, and a button down for a casual yet classy look!

    5.   Hot Chocolate

Mmmmm…this picture looks so delicious! Hot chocolate is my favorite drink for a bitter day! I recommend dark hot chocolate, it is very satisfying and has a very luxurious taste. Yum, this is making me hungry!

Be right back while I indulge in some holiday treats!
