Hat - Steve Madden (from Winners) coat - Garage Clothing top - H & M necklace - F21
A cold and nasty winter storm hit our city last Friday (the worst in ten years!) and since then more than 1.5 feet of snow has fallen, making it very difficult to drive on the icy, slippery and unplowed side roads. Trying to drive on roads like these is kind of like trying to stick a bean all the way up your nose and swallow it - it's possible but it might get stuck. So I decided not to drive anywhere this weekend to be safe. Instead I took a walk around my neighborhood wearing my practical - yet fashionable- hat to take a few pictures of the craziness to show you what a Canadian winter can be like:
Our backyard
Look closely. Yes, there's a CAR under that blanket of snow! Not mine, thank goodness.
Icicles hanging from the side of our house.
More snow is yet to come. This is just the beginning. I'm off to sip some hot chocolate and warm up my toes!

That hat looks awesome on you! I can't believe the snow you guys have! One of our friends got stuck in Medicine Hat. He was supposed to come back home last Friday but couldn't get to Calgary but i think he's coming back today. That's crazy! Looks nice though with all the snow. :)
Hey Marie! Just saw your comment somewhere else about NYX cosmetics not being in Canada. I dont' know which part of Canada you're @, but I know in Toronto at least, the Rexall in College Park (downtown) sells NYX. Hope this is helpful! Lovely hat btw! :D Have a great one! x http://xNTA.blogspot.com/

You are rockin' that trapper hat lady!
now THAT is a LOT of snow- looks fun!
Hahaha, I totally did not see the car at first! That's amazing! Canadian bloggers have it so rough during winter! I am so amused by bloggers wearing a light jacket and being like "It's FREEZING today!" - you have noooo idea! You look adorable in your furry little hat!
That's an adorable hat:] wow you guys sure have alot of snow there! We just got a "winter storm" down here, and it was only about 5-6 inches and they had declared a state of emergency!!
Kate: HA I totally agree! THEY HAVE NO IDEA!
I totally adore that first picture of you! You look great and the hat is perfect for the snow. My sister lives in Edmonton so she is feeling the chill too. Stay warm Xo
Wowww i just lovvveee snow!! I wish i lived in canada ;)

Love the first photo of you! So sweet.
Whoo, Creston is in for this much snow this week. Gotta love Canada...

I'm from here too and can't believe how much snow has hit us!!! Soooo many cars are getting stuck left and right, it's crazy! Especially in the residential areas. I hope they plow all the roads soon! P.s. Love ur blog! So excited to see someone from here blogging :) n u find the coolest stuff at winners! The winners around my area suck
i love that bright red color on you.
There's so much snow there, thank God here is warmer than usually, i don't like cold weather at all, especially if the Holydays are gone
Great snow pics!!! You really capture the winter wonderland in E town.
You look lovely in the snow with your fur hat and red lips :)

Thanks for the tip on Maybelline's cream blush - I need a long lasting one!

YIKES Marie!!
We didn't get this in Calgary, thank GOD! I had no idea you guys got it that bad.
You look great though. LOVE that hat!
OOHHH me!!! Do stay warm! Thank goodness I live in Florida...I am weak and absolutely couldn't handle it. not one bit.
Hot chocolate sounds like a good idea in that kind of weather!
lol did you get that hat at winners?! I picked up a steve madden one from there around december and it looks like yours :D and yeaa hot chocolate in winter == yum and cozy!
That snow is so thick!! Can't believe there is a car under there! LOVE your hat so much!! :)SarahD
Pop Champagne: It's the same one ; )
Only you could look fashionable in that much know. I am known to throw on pyjamas and hibernate when I am encountered with a snow storm.

omg! how much snow! that's insane. and i thought we had it bad! however it gives you the perfect opportunity to wear that hat which you pull off amazingly :)
This is reminding me of snowmageddon last year! Ick! I'm so over snow!
Oh, damnnnnn. There's a car under there? Whoa. I know we've had bad blizzards like that here before, but I don't remember them. On the plus side, you look amazing. I totally am digging your hat!
Stay safe (and warm)!
Brrr, it looks like you guys got it way worse than us! Sorry to hear that (no really I am!). I hope you stay warm and manage to not get stuck anywhere!
At least you look good, I love the hat!
