Snow Bunny Chic, Hot Looks For Cold Weather

The winter season is in full swing. And that means it's time to hit the slopes. Skiing is such an exhilarating sport and one that I've been learning for the past 5 years. As much as I love the sport itself - the anticipation that builds while your on the lift, the thrill you experience as you first rush down the mountain, the peace of mind you have as you find your rhythm and skillfully maneuver your way down to the bottom - I really enjoyed buying all the gear that comes with it.

Seeing D&G's Fall 2010 collection revived an excitement for hitting the slopes and looking as stylish as possible. Their collection was filled with traditional winter motifs but paired with unexpected pieces like a snowflake sweater bodysuit and reindeer full body all in ones. So to get you ready for ski season, we've gathered some fashionably chic ski gear essentials to not only keep you warm but also looking your best as you ski down the mountain slopes or lounge in front of a fireplace in the lodge.

16 Fabulous Fall Finds from J. Crew

While I can't speak for the entire Luxist team, I have a pretty good feeling that we all love the fashion offered at J. Crew. They offer well made and long lasting basics mixed with bold statement pieces presented in such a way that you'll wear them forever. Both my husband and I have sweaters and pants that we've purchased over 4 years ago and given their timeless appeal, we're still wearing them today.

J Crew's lookbook and catalog showcase trendsetting and super fashionable ensembles, but I thoroughly enjoy putting my own personal twist to what I wear and the clothing at J. Crew allows me to do just that. After a long hot and at times unbearable summer scorcher, fall's arrival is a welcomed change. It feels relaxing to be at a comfortable body temperature and have a cool breeze pass through the air. Your daily attire can have more depth and substance rather than succumbing to heat and wearing a tank top, shorts and flip flops.
