staying warm

$169, uniqlo.com

I just got back from a fun week in the snow (more details on that later). While it was amazing to breathe in the mountain air, ski, build a snow man with my kids, and indulge in some apres-ski delight (i.e., drink body-warming, velvet-smooth red wine), I also enjoyed sporting my cold-weather clothes, namely my plush cashmere scarves, chunky sweaters, and faux fur jacket--things that are very neglected living in LA. So, here's another wintry goodie that will serve me well on future trips to the mountains, back east and on those rare chilly days in LA (which we're in for this week, apparently). I love the classic double-breasted, belted silhouette and the hunter green wool (though I could see myself swapping the belt out with a vintage brown leather one instead). Wear it with...

* My friend Pam, who lives in Aspen, has these blizzard-worthy boots in grey. The side zipper and buckle amp up the boot's style quotient.
