Snow Globe Livin’
A few years ago one of my students told me she loves winter because she imagines she is in a beautiful snow globe. I tried her technique for a few minutes but the howling wind and blasting snow quickly snapped me back to reality. It did however get me thinking… with the right winter parka, perhaps I could too, pretend I was living in a glass dome with white confetti and learn to love the winter! My boyfriend decided to make my snow globe dreams come true and bought me a Canada Goose jacket for Christmas last year. Best. Gift. Ever. The prices is a extreme but I will without a doubt say it is worth it, especially if you’re a teacher and do supervision… game changer!
Want to learn more about the Canada Goose brand? Check out this post from the Cade Style Lounge blog- they do a great job explaining why they are the price they are and why those that wear them are in love!
Is it cold where you live? If so, what are your tricks for dealing with the extreme temps?

I love this parka Holly! You look so cozy and warm, despite those freezing temps! I live in Australia but my husband and I spent 3 months travelling across Canada from Vancouver to Quebec City…in the dead of winter (all for the name of snowboarding haha!) and I remember the cold SO well (I don’t think I’ll ever forget it actually!). It doesn’t get that cold here but when we were living in Canada in the winter I wore my goose down jacket that I got in NYC during the previous winter – expensive, but SO worth it! It kept me cozy for the coldest winter of my life! I also love your toque (so awesome your Mum made it!). xx Carly

Thanks so much for sharing your Canadian experience with me! I have never been to Quebec city but it is definitely on my bucket list! The parka is so warm and as you would know so necessary for the Canadian winters we experience- you must love living in Australia, no parka needed there 🙂
Thanks for the sweet comment, Carly!
XOXO

Honestly! I don’t know how we survived winter without one! Haha okay that is a bit dramatic but they make it a lot more bearable that’s for sure!

Hi Holly,
Not sure you’ll see this, given it’s an old post. I was wondering how your mukluks held up after a season of wear? I recently moved to a colder town in Canada and I’d like to have warm feet!
Thanks for your help!
