Brrrrr!

It's 6 degrees F out right now, and that's not an exaggeration. In reality, I'm hibernating on the couch in my pajamas and watching whatever trash is on Bravo.

In my dreams, though, I'm snuggled up in this room...

in front of the fireplace with this book...
 
staying cozy in this outfit...
Handknit Winter White Chunky Cable Jumper, $310

with this little guy to keep my feet warm ...
 

I hope you are all staying out of the cold! And to those of you in warmer climes, please prepare the Aerobed for my arrival.

    i won't brag and say that I am in 74 degree weather...that would be just wrong, especially since I would love for it to be a little cooler down here right now, so that I could wear the outfit that you posted :).

    What?! I can't believe you hated The History of Love! I don't even know who you are anymore. ;) But I do love Jonathan Safran Foer, probably even more than I love his wife.

    Well, that just sounds like the perfect day to me! ;) It has been freezing here too lately but today it warmed up to 30 degrees. Lol. I'll take what I can get, I guess. Sigh.

    I'm hibernating as well. It's so cold here. It was me and the Kardashians all day yesterday ha! I wish I was hibernating in that cable knit jumper with a fire and a furry friend though. My hair dryer and boyfriend will have to do for now I suppose! Stay warm darling. x

    Uh, I want to be in that dream room too! Hope it gets warmer. It's in the 30s here and I'm squawking. Maybe I should be grateful!

    I would totally take all of your imaginary reality, especially the cozy outfit and the pup! Philadelphia is ridiculously cold too, and I could use all comforts I can find!

    It's 28 degrees Celcius outside and we're burning up! And your pooch is too cute. Just having him around would make the day go better, I'm sure.

    I understand how you feel. It's been pretty brutal in Chicago these last few months. Snowy and cold, snowy and cold not to mention gray skies. I dream of warmer climates but I also dream of things like a fireplace and cozy knits. I'm so with you on this one!

    You have the right idea for dealing with this cold, wet weather. With a gorgeous winter den, cozy clothing, good reading, and that adorable little fellow it seems not just bearable but desirable to be snowed in.
