Scandinavian Winter

After Russia and babouchkas, Sweden and its northern beauties...who sure know well how to look stylish, feel cozy, and stay warm at the same time. Take a lesson from them!!!

* Bundle up and hide behind big scarves....need I say more? And then layers layers layers. Or, a chic warm coat.

* The ubiquituous highwaist : Rather a summery staple, but still, seems to already be a classic in Sweden!
* Never understimate the power of a hat
Fur (real, faux....to each her own) toques, beanies, béret ,trapper...to help you avoid frozen brain, headaches and ear pain. And give your look the surprise hint it needs! ( okay, these are mainly photos from Face Hunter. Whatever)

I'll leave you with this pretty girl. Old raw used beanies have never looked so good.

My theory is that amazing fashion taste must be in the North-European water.

Scandinavian girls just seem to have 'it', while the same thing on me would just look dull, on them its effortlessly stylish and elegant. They also have such nice hair!

very nice post, i just finished putting up my own post. I like the vivienne westwood quote, it actually reminds me of something Kit Pistol on Project Runway said. It was something along the lines of "life is too short to wear a bad outfit." Don't you just love that?!
