    I love seashell pinks and soft pastels. Mittens are the cutest accessory this time of year, it's such a shame we don't have much use for them in Florida.. :(

    OK- I am left completely flattered by your extraordinary compliment (better than AnnaLynne McC!?) OMG- I love her and this really excited me to read! :) THANK YOU <3

    Mittens are sooo cute! I love fingerless one. I guess they aren't really mittens if they're fingerless though. >_<
    I'm so glad to see Julia with normal hair. She at Chanel that same season....it was a nightmare.

    Mittens! Love them so, so much. I bought a pattern to knit some for next winter... it'll be an interesting experiment as i am not a very good knitter!

    Love all of these, especially the ski gloves. They look so toasty xx

    CC, I put you on my Daily Dose (blogs I follow). Thanks for the add. As for the gloves, I am going to be getting the iPhone very soon so I think I am going to have to get some gloves without the fingers. HOWEVER, I need to keep in mind that it should look more sheik rather than homeless sheik:) Also, since it is the holidays, I vote for the muff.

    Wow, 10'' of snow! I'd love to have that here! And you're so great to go shovel it yourself!
    I love fingerless gloves, even though they don't do much for the warmth of your hands :]

    Flip-top mittens that convert into fingerless gloves are so handy.
