Winter Storm Necessities

Winter Storm Necessities

All this week its been on again off again snow and ice. Since the power was out for two days and there was no TV or internet everyone in my house thought it was "like Little House on the Prairie". That may be a bit dramatic but two to three days without internet left for a very boring house so my sister and I had to keep ourselves entertained... her our some of the things that make sitting in a house without power a little more bearable :)
Hope you enjoy!

 
  • Target throw blankets
    • These were lifesavers for our house! They are super soft and even when the power did eventually come back on these blankets were still used throughout our whole house.
 
  • Target fuzzy socks
    • These give me a spa-like vibe and they match pretty much any outfit. The striped ones are my favorite and they kept my feet very warm.
 
  • EOS lip balm
    • I have been looking for the light blue/mint color for a long time so when I finally found it at Target stocking up for the storm I was very excited. I keeps my chapped lips moisturized all day long and I rarely have to re-apply.
  • Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella
    • This book was amazing and I literally could not put it down for two days! It kept me super occupied without power.
    • All of Sophie Kinsella's books are brilliant and must reads!
  • Kate Spade mini nail polish set
    • I received this set as a gift for Christmas and this week was the first time using it. The light pink and the sparkly color paired together make a perfect Valentines Day duo.

Frigid Weather=Fun Accessories


Lately where I live the weather has been absolutely freezing! My school even let us ditch the uniform in order to dress warmly because being forced to wear tights when it is ten degrees is actually cruel.

Here are some bright colored accessories to give your outfit a fun boost!





  • Vineyard Vines lambswool mittens
    • These mittens keep your hands toasty while looking stylish yet classic. The pink and navy can go with any outfit and can even jazz up a boring winter coat.
    • They're even on sale for $39.99!
  • Old Navy patterned trouser socks
    • These adorable nautical inspired socks could peak out of boots giving your outfit a preppy vibe while still keeping your feet super warm.
  • Target Mossimo beaded beanie
    • These beanies come in three different colors and they give a simple outfit a bit of an edge. Paired with a black coat (puffy or not depending on how cold it is!) will make for an easy and chic ensemble.
  • Nordstrom David and Young striped infinity scarf
    • This incredibly soft, multicolored scarf keeps you warm in even the coldest weather.
