I want to live my life to the fullest with no regrets. However, when it comes to the subject of my inability to dress appropriately for the weather, I’m afraid some people come to mind. Ask most of my friends, and they’ll probably tell you they’ve spotted me in at least a handful of clothes that weren’t suitable for whatever occasion occurred at the time. Maybe it’s due to the fact that I’m from California where hazy weather has planted in my mind endless confusion about temperature, or maybe I’m just bad at guessing what works with what temperature. (I pray for the former, but it’s probably a combination of the two.) Either way, I guess what I’m trying to say is that I made a mistake, and now I want all of them. We learn from them.

The sections are not too difficult to navigate! afterward winter beaten. I remember one day it was literally 11ºF outside, and I finally realized what being ready meant (or, should I say, Not prepared) for the seasons. Below, I’ve highlighted six of my mistakes that fateful winter and how you — and, let’s be honest, I — can avoid making the same mistakes in the future. See my tips, shop options, you know the drill.
