Salmon Fishing

That salmon came straight from Alaska, which was pretty awesome to say the least. Also awesome is this hoodie, which I've had for years and can't imagine getting rid of. Double breasted? Yes, please. 

This snow is in Vail, but Denver is far too closely resembling this for any day after April 1st. Come back, Spring!

Snow Dog

After a gorgeous weekend in Denver, meteorologists are predicting thunder, lightening, and snow for today. Tuesday is bound to look like a winter wonderland. It seemed only appropriate to post these photos from Vail, in hopes that this is the last snowstorm of the season, at least in Denver.

Ham on Rye

I'm on the road again today, or in the air rather, on my way to Minneapolis after a fabulous few days in the mountains. Do you ever get those days when you're nostalgic for no real reason at all? Today is one of them for me. With spring right around the corner, I'm already missing these spectacular mountain views, and the skiing that went with them. It feels like everything is on the verge of change, which I suppose is mostly true. Spring is the season of rebirth, after all. But it's going to be a good one, I can feel it. 

Or maybe I'm just reading too much Bukowski.

The View From Frisco

 For all of its snow and freezing temperatures, Summit County is pretty gorgeous. The water in the background is the Dillon Reservoir, which is always a welcome view when driving by on the way up to Vail. I'm skiing at Heavenly and Kirkwood this week, and having a fabulous time, but somehow Vail will always feel like my home mountain. If you ski or snowboard, spend a day on the back side and I'm sure you'll say the same.

Be Mine

 I ended up wearing this outfit to celebrate Valentine's Day last week at Osaki, an amazing sushi restaurant in Vail Village with my special someone, and it couldn't have been more perfect. With all of the snow in Denver and Vail I ended up wearing my Rag & Bone Harrow booties and adding my Helmut Lang coat to stay warm, but I still felt festive in this top and skirt. So often the subtlest details mean the difference between ok and spectacular. Here, there was just enough pink to make this work, especially with the feathered skirt.

Blizzard Proof

Best idea ever for winter weather: the stand-alone hood, for those coats without.

We Looked Like Giants

I know I keep talking about snow, but it's just so pretty! Though I still need work on shooting photos in it. At least after all these winters I know how to dress for it. 

Rag & Bone coat, Burberry scarf, Urban Outfitters sweater, Rich & Skinny jeans (similar), Isabel Marant boots. 

At the Bottom of Everything

One of the best things about cold weather is how much freedom you have to accessorize. I generally subscribe to the "less is more" train of thought in terms of accessories, but when temperatures are in the teens or less, I pull out every winter accessory I own and start piling them on until a bearable level of warmth is reached. Here's to cold weather, and a whole lot of snow!

And Happy Birthday to a special someone out there today! Hope you're having a great one.

Snow Bunny

These photos are from last weekend in the mountains, which I'm still savoring. There was skiing and an intro to some park skiing, a Breaking Bad marathon, Lincoln, more skiing, the best sushi of my life, even more skiing, awesome BBQ, and Zero Dark Thirty. More snow would have been the only thing that could have made it better, and I'm still holding out hope for that. 

Send all your snow to Eagle County, please! It's so much prettier blanketed in white. Summit County could use some, too.
