While this photo looks like it was taken in Park City, Utah- it was actually taken while standing in line at Disney Land! I just got back from California, and it was FREEZING!!!!! I had to wear a scarf, gloves and multiple layers when at Disneyland. I was miserably cold, and so thankful that I had the supplies to keep me warm! I looked like a fish out of water, with my dark scarf, black leather coat, and black gloves and accessories. Among the crowed of brightly adorned California girls, we kind of looked like vampires. I did however, have a fabulous pair of Sunglasses- even thought it was cloudy. That should have helped me to fit in right? Also- canvas shoes are DEFIANTLY all the rage in California, so my red TOMS fit in perfectly!
While I didn't see anyone actually running around like the picture below- I was surprised by the Southern California girls stamina when it came to the cold. While I was FREEZING my buns off, and drinking hot chocolate one cup after another. They were stubbornly wearing their sandals, and their VERY short short. Tank tops, and belly shirts. I even saw one girl that was wearing her bikini, under a see through belly exposing tank top, and short shorts, that gave her to opportunity to let her bikini strings hang out . I mean COME ON! It was 50 degrees!
Like I said, there were no Katy Perry California Girls running around ( thank goodness!) however, I did realize that California girls are dedicated to their craft. In contrast to my self, a UTAH girl, who is dedicated to keeping all my fingers and toes, and mainly staying warm, and covering everything up until I reach and can maintain a certain body temp! Speaking of which, sitting here writing this post- I have three top layers on, and my fingers have gotten so cold they feel like they are no longer working properly.
Note to self: Buy fingerless gloves, so when typing about staying warm, I can actually try and stay warm.
In conclusion. I think its lame to dress like its one season, when clearly its another!!!! On that note- I'm off to make some hot chocolate and toast.
PS. I fell off the shopping bandwagon. I bought a couple of really adorable tank tops to wear on my sunny California trip. What a waste of a re-lapse! Back on the budget starting this week! (:
That's cool that you guys got to go to Disneyland! It's really cold where we are too. Some days we don't even go out side...why would we when we can stay under the covers. Hope you get warm soon. Miss you.
ReplyDeleteGirls here in England seem to dress like it's 70 degrees all the time. It's baffling to me as I tromp around in sweaters and hoodies.
