SNOW DAY STYLE

The Steele Maiden: Snow Day Style - Apres Ski Sweater, Red Beret and Plaid Skirt

Still humming ‘Walking in a Winter Wonderland’ after Saturday’s snow. There’s just something about the first snow day of the season in New York City that’s pure magic. Especially when it falls in December and the whole city feels like it’s a Christmas snow globe come to life. I was originally saving this ‘Aprés Ski’ sweater for, well, actual post-skiing attire… but it just felt like I needed to break my own rules and break it in early over the weekend.

SHOP THE STORY

To be completely honest, these photos were hard to take. My hair was getting soaked, Adam was trying to hide the camera lens underneath an umbrella while also dodging cars in the middle of the street and we were both freezing after a couple of minutes. But even though we only got a few good shots, I love that we’ll look back on these photos and remember that day. Laughing and slipping our way through the streets and taking cover in our favorite neighborhood restaurant afterwards to share a drink while the snow blanketed the city outside. While this blog hopefully serves as inspiration for all of you, for us – it reads like a diary. Thanks for reading.

WINTER LAYERS: PLAID COAT AND WHITE MIDI SKIRT

The Steele Maiden: Winter Layers in Plaid Coat, White Midi Skirt and pink sweater

If you live anywhere in the Northeast, then you know that it’s cold right now. Like bone chilling cold. After spending most of Saturday running around Central Park in the snow, slipping and sliding.. and taking quite a few snowballs in the line of fire between Adam and his brother… the weather took a serious turn towards unbearable on Sunday. Which means lots of blankets, cups of tea, and when I MUST outside – layers.

RED PLAID MAXI SKIRT AND STRIPES

Red plaid maxi skirt, red stripes and boyfriend cardigan

While I’m not over the colors of Fall (like this burgundy orange mix, shades of mustard and brown, or this navy plaid combo) quite yet.. now that it’s November and we’re moving into the true Holiday season, I’m excited to start adding a few festive pops of red to get into the spirit of things early. I figured, if Starbucks is already handing out red cups…

PRAGUE: DAY TO NIGHT WITH RUCHE

Prague day to night with Ruche: plaid skirt and floral date night dress

I am certain that our time spent in Prague is the closest I will ever come to living in a fairytale. The castles, the colors, the… everything. It just felt like magic. For the most part I try to pack practically with solids that I can mix and match – but I was happy to have packed a few standout pieces like this plaid skirt and floral dress for a city that felt like it deserved a little dressing up.
