Agreed - lots of these pieces would work great for snowboarding (which I've never done either) or skating (the skirts here in particular would be great for figure skating).<br /><br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-38163604017514040782014-01-16T16:55:06.729-08:002014-01-16T16:55:06.729-08:00I've never really been athletic, but I have a ...I've never really been athletic, but I have a great appreciation for winter sports.

That's such a great word, but it's not one you encounter terribly often on this side of the pond (and indeed, I most associate with the UK TV show Top Gear of all things), so my inner logophile was delighted that you did. <br /><br />How great that your mom had, or may still have, a hat just like that one. It's a charmer for sure! <br /><br />Many thanks for your great comment,<br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-5543497373144572552014-01-13T23:01:42.676-08:002014-01-13T23:01:42.676-08:00It's on.

These lovely pictures of girls from days gone by are absolutely inviting. There is a special something about ski-sweaters. Don't you think that the most adorable, friendly-looking and snowflake covered sweaters are made to be work at a ski resort? <br /><br />Many Tuesday hugs!<br />MarijaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04034764185511908294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-29364715967403940792014-01-13T22:59:24.993-08:002014-01-13T22:59:24.993-08:00This winter, the world over, has been a bit of a h...This winter, the world over, has been a bit of a head scratcher. It seems that different areas either got buried in massive amounts of snow or have seen little to none, instead of a fairly consistent blanketing. I'm sorry that your part of the world is being spared snow this season. We'd had plenty here in the Okanagan Valley and I'd happily ship some your way if I could.<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-76830038274043563252014-01-13T22:50:53.703-08:002014-01-13T22:50:53.703-08:00I highly suspected that this charming ski outfit f...I highly suspected that this charming ski outfit filled post would appeal to you greatly, dear Beate.

I can at least send you a photo if it's still around, as it's definitely original. The only thing is, while she's not a big 'clearer out' like me, she has been getting rid of some things recently in preparation for downsizing so I will have to just see. Also, my teenage son has a jumper (as in sweater) just like the one the girl in the middle of the third photograph with the snowflakes on, but I don't think I'll mention it to him!!Philippahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979470577235630724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-77565581990868764772014-01-13T15:59:53.486-08:002014-01-13T15:59:53.486-08:00I just love this post !

Where has it gone and why! <br /><br />I did once have a lovely dark green wool pair of ski pants, which I actually wore on the Sierra slopes when I was 18. But the girls in the skirts would have been me in my teen years. My sisters and I wore skirts, seldom pants, even in the coldest winter days during my years in Minnesota and Wisconsin.<br /><br />I so enjoyed this post, Jessica! I sure hope that you find that vintage coat and those vintage snow boots that you desire.<br /><br />:) HopeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
