oh snow.
what a love / hate relationship.
good= snowboarding. brisk winter walks. the first snowfall. witnessing the intricate details of a single snowflake.
bad= -40. starting the car 10 minutes before you go anywhere. scraping ice off the car!
i have been living in this green coat 24/7... so much so that my brother actually calls it the "24/7".
i picked it up at h&m in the little boys section!
i wanted a tough. military-esq coat to contrast my sky-scrapers & feminine self.
it works perfectly.
today is also ukrainian christmas.
Христос народився! ( "christ is born" )
we celebrated the eve of this precious holiday yesterday which is accompanied by 12 meatless dishes. all served in sequence. so pretty much 12 courses.
i have been celebrating 2 christmases and 2 new years since birth, so i feel super lucky to have such celebrations.
i am still here for another month so heaps more snow to come!

I love these latest pictures. It was interesting to read why you love and hate the winter. It's so different than what I'm accustomed. Even living in Brazil I already saw snow, but it never covered the entire floor. And I don't know how is less than -5°C.

yaaaay canada :]

they're so perfect & simple, a veritable staple, i'd say .

Ah snow! I would love some cold weather right now, it's a great excuse to wear cute coats like yours!
Just stumbled across your blog - I love that you left a social work degree for fashion. I'm 24 too and about to ditch a career in law to study fashion design...Eek! xx
Hi sweet gorgeous of mine!
Although i can't see the first picture, you look amazing as always my dear friend!
Usually i am not into shoes like those, but you fit them so perfectly and your whole style is just perfect for them!
Here in Holland it's also freezing, but -40! That's not human anymore.! ;)
Thinking about you always,
sending you all my love and warmth,
Mila
