Only the good die young

Wednesday's outfit was an inspiration from an old Forever 21 look:

Mixing fair isle sweater with plaid and man boots...

Feel the Rain

 It is raining like crazy here so rain boots time!

Found this inspiration on J Crew:

I liked how the black and white shines over red pants. The grey beanie and the camel jacket are unusual pairings but they totally work!

At the Summit

 This was my outfit Wednesday as we headed to Big Bear for a ski/snowboard getaway!

The inspiration was from this photo in 2014 issue of People Style Watch:

 My mom and step dad bought me this cute hat for Christmas…

WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY:
The kids and I joined our friends who have a cabin in Big Bear for a day in the snow…
Signed up the kids for ski/snowboard classes half the day while we skied and snowboarded. Then picked them up, had lunch and hit the slopes with them. The weird thing is I am a skier while my kids took snowboarding lessons and my friends are snow boarders and their kids took skiing lessons.
At the end of the day the kids were taking the chair lift on their own and coming down the green slopes on their own!

 First practice at the magic carpet bunny slope….

They they were ready for the green slope riding the real chair lift….

In the moment

Monday's outfit was inspired by a J  Crew 'look' from their factory Website:

I hadn't worn my down vest in a while so it was perfect to pair over this fair isle sweater which has a touch of pink in it and they went great together… To be hones though I didn't keep the patent leather heels on and switched to uggs as we were going ice skating! :)

Vest - FOrever 21

Sweater - H&M

Jeans - Closet

Heels - J Crew

MONDAY:
It was a holiday here and the kids were off school. We met up and the ice skating rink first for lunch then to skate. My sister came too and here and I rented skates and were on the ice as well while her husband, my parents watched. My ankles and side of my legs were burning from using muscles I never use but it was fun.
It is also amazing how I got better at skating from watching the kids skate. Didn't know if that is possible. I was joking the other day with my friends. May be I have this special talent of learning a sport by watching so next you will see me playing soccer and basketball! :)
