Wearing Red in the Snow ..

In my last post I told you how much I love to wear bright colours in the snow. I really like wearing red (even when it’s not Christmas) because it’s such a feel good colour and is very fitting with the brilliant white snow. I have such a soft spot for the snow and I don’t even mind the ice. I like to wrap up warm pull on a pair of my boots and go for a long crunchy walk with a stop in a cosy pub with a fire for fish and chips. I haven’t actually done that since it snowed but if it stays or maybe we get another fall I will make sure that I do so. Do you like crunching through the snow or has the novelty worn off now ?
You may noticed that my skin doesn’t look so fab in the photograph. It has been reacting to the heating in my home, I have turned my radiator off and have been using some of my favourite creams to help fix it. I am pleased too say that it is much better now, it’s not fully back to normal but it should be within the next few days.

I was thinking of sharing the creams which have been helping me out over the past few weeks, would you be interested ?
Also, does anyone else find that their skin can get irritated when it’s very warm in the house ?

I think that it’s all down to the weather being so cold and then coming home to a warm toasty house and it can just really drain your skin of all moisture. I personally have to be very careful and have also noticed that the bags under my eyes have bags so have been using extra eye cream. This is due to my poor skin being so tired.. and not for a lack of sleep for once.

    i like red too, but not on clothes, more on scarfs, hats and socks. never been a red all over fan. i’m not a fan of the cold weather, my body doesn’t cope well. i have terrible circulation so for instance today was maybe zero and i had 3 tops on, big wool coat, scarf, gloves, hat and boots and i’m still freezing. a case of the red noses. now keen. our heating is terrible so i wear many layers and hats inside too, but my skin is greasy and crap all the time

    I like to wear bright colors in the winter too – snow or no snow! Hope your skin feels better soon and I would like to know what kind of creams you use)

    I love your red. It’s so pretty! I still love crunching through the snow, playing in it…even the icky slush. Probably because I don’t really get the chance to play in it unless I travel up north during winter (I live in Florida…so it’s ALWAYS hot).

    I love wearing red in the winter too especially in the snow. It really pops against the white background. I always enjoy the first snow of the season, but the second, third, etc get annoying quick.

    goodness, your skin looks okay from here tho, but I do know what you mean, I have a/c in my office at work, and heating at home, and the bloody freezing walk between the two causes havoc for my already stressed skin! oily in some places but so patchy and dry in others that it’s causing hassles with neat foundation application! I had a bath after work today and wore no makeup to the pub, and I have tomorrow off so I will go foundationless again then, so hopefully with a lot of moisturiser I can recover! Look forward to your post on it!
