And though we would all love to continue wearing our chic opaque tights\/sweater dress\/cute boots\/little pea coat ensembles, those type of outfits usually end with consequences. i.e.: colds, shivering uncontrollably, etc. Nor do we want to look like an Eskimo, with furry hats, UGG boots, and a huge winter jacket.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus said, it is very important to invest in key essentials for the winter. Wool and leather materials are probably most suitable for this time of year, providing adequate warmth whilst remaining chic and sharp. A long wool trench or peacoat would be warmer than the average hip-length cold, keeping your legs warm. Jeans are definitely a must as well; but if you still get cold easily, wear a pair of leggings underneath your pants: weird, yes, but no one will ever know. Leather boots are a yet another must for cold weather. Knee-highs cover more areas\u00a0susceptible\u00a0to the cold, and leather is waterproof. Stilettos and heels are perfectly fine for those plain old, gusty days, but when there&#8217;s ice out, please do lower the heel. Wedges would be more practical!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And now the accessories. My outerwear color palette always consists of two colors: either black and cream, or gray and black. It gives the best overall effect and keeps the ensemble very chic and streamlined. The coat and boots should be the same color, and the accessories (hat, gloves, scarves, bags) should be of another color. A wool beret or beanie is a must; not only does it keep your hair from flailing wildly about your face and sticking to the lipgloss (oh the horror) whenever a winter gale hits, but it also, obviously, keeps your head warm. It&#8217;s also quite the chic addition to any outfit. Leather gloves are a must! I love the Miu Miu ones below; and if you are like myself and are not willing to part with the hundred-something dollars, DIY them! Glue on large rhinestones securely to the leather gloves where ever you&#8217;d like, and voila! And last, but not least. The bag. A leather bag is most practical for winter, since the material is able to endure spontaneous bursts of snowfall, hail, or sleet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"831\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/let-it-snow-let-it-snow-let-it-snow\/winter-essentials\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg?fit=500%2C389&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,389\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"winter-essentials\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg?fit=500%2C389&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-831\" title=\"winter-essentials\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg?resize=500%2C389\" alt=\"winter-essentials\" width=\"500\" height=\"389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/winter-essentials.jpg?resize=300%2C233&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5>In other news, darlings&#8230;<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"846\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/let-it-snow-let-it-snow-let-it-snow\/4th-award-from-petra\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/4th-award-from-petra.jpg?fit=168%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"168,200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"4th-award-from-petra\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/4th-award-from-petra.jpg?fit=168%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-846 alignnone\" title=\"4th-award-from-petra\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/4th-award-from-petra.jpg?resize=168%2C200\" alt=\"4th-award-from-petra\" width=\"168\" height=\"200\" \/>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/5th-award-from-petra.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"847\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/let-it-snow-let-it-snow-let-it-snow\/5th-award-from-petra\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/5th-award-from-petra.jpg?fit=159%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"159,200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"5th-award-from-petra\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/5th-award-from-petra.jpg?fit=159%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-847 alignnone\" title=\"5th-award-from-petra\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/5th-award-from-petra.jpg?resize=159%2C200\" alt=\"5th-award-from-petra\" width=\"159\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The lovely <a href=\"http:\/\/cityofpetra.blogspot.com\/\">Petra<\/a> awarded me with not one, but <em>two<\/em> awards, saying &#8220;this blog amazes me.

She was also kind enough to include a few other bottles: Maybelline Colorama Topcoat #23 (Orange-y with glitter), Sinful Colors in San Francisco (a dark, sophisticated green&#8230; different from the color palette I usually stick to, but nonetheless, fun to experiment!), and Wet &#8216;N Wild\u00a0Kaleidoscope\u00a0(a fabulous, silver polish that is pure glitter).
