Snow! And Snow (Yoga) Fashion

Well...it did snow today, but I still got myself to yoga (woo hoo!), then came out of Savasana to a winter wonderland. I like our kind of snow. It's never here more than a couple days. Just enough to love it.

Brrr...Stay Toasty and Stylish
Dressing for yoga when it's freezing outside can be a challenge. Sometimes we get to class and it's still freezing inside, instead of the usual 80 to 85 degrees it should be. So you can't strip down to your class outfit just yet. The key to dressing for wintertime yoga is lots of layers.

Lucy.com has some lovely Ts and hoodies that are excellent for layering. I love these tops!:








For Ugg-mazingly Warm Tootsies
I have a confession: When the Ugg phenomenon swept California, I'm sure they could hear my "Ugh!" all the way over on the West Coast. I just hated these sloppy looking boots. I now stand corrected, and understand exactly why the were all the rage, and why you still see them everywhere. They're perfect for going to yoga, especially when it's cold out—easy to slip on and off. Mind you, they're not waterproof, but they'll get a city girl into the studio dry and warm. At the moment I have some Ugg knockoffs I love, but they're a bit short for capri-length pants. I've got my eye on the Ugg Women's Ultimate Tall II Boot—they look like they might be exactly the right height.

Just Say No to Snow

Please, God, don't let it snow! I want to go to yoga tomorrow morning!

They're calling for snow here in our lovely little city. The hysteria has begun. Guess if I am snowed in, it's yoga at home, which is never fun when your Doberman decides to lick your ear or get under you while in Downward Facing Dog. Hey, I don't bother him when he's doing is Downward/Upward vinyasa!

Gone Bananas
While we're talking snow, I went by the grocery store tonight...cupboards were totally bare since I've been in yoga teacher training the last six days. I fully expected to see the bread and milk wiped out, because, you know, when it snows in the South, it lasts forever (wink, wink). But dude, NO BANANAS? What the? What, now a wintry mix means a run on bananas? I will never understand this city, even if I love it.
