Oh February, why you gotta be the worst? We just got more snow and there's an ice storm on the way. As much as I'd love to be posting fun spring things, it's still very much winter so I'm going to show you some of my favorite stuff that's getting me through and a few things I wish I owned. Here we go:
My husband got me a Carhartt fleece lined hoodie and WOW. It is a delight to wear. Cozy and warm but surprisingly it doesn't feel heavy when I wear it. I want new winter boots to walk my dog.
ReplyDeleteA fleece-lined hoodie is the best!
DeleteI have the polartec leggings from athleta... They're a few years old now and I ordered a new pair but unfortunately the order was cancelled. :(
ReplyDeleteDo you know how the Rainer tights compare?
I'm sorry, I don't. I haven't tried the polartec leggings so I can't say how they compare.
DeleteI tried on both and went with Rainier. Polartec felt more like lounge wear to me, and definitely too warm for winter running in the Pac NW. So...it depends on what you're looking for but I have two Raniers and they've been worth every penny.
DeleteThanks, Christa! Great information.
DeleteThanks Christa! I mountain bike and hike during the winter and the polartec leggings have been perfect for below freezing temps (NJ). I can see how they wouldn't be great for running tho. I'll have to check out the Rainer version. Athleta was generous enough to give me a discount code to make up for the order cancellation.
