We are pretty solidly in the middle of winter, and here in Ohio at least, that means one thing – it is really frappin’ cold.
When I head out to work in the morning, I want to be dressed professionally, of course, but I also want to make sure I’ll stay warm throughout the day. Dropping off/picking up two kids in two locations, going back and forth between buildings… I manage to get out in the cold a lot, so keeping myself toasty is a tall order.
We know to turn to Lands’ End for outerwear that is incredibly warm (I love the LE parka I bought a couple of years ago), but it’s also a great place to look for… innerwear? Underwear? Uh, regular clothes that will keep you warm as well.
Here’s what I mean.
This sweater is perfect for work.
It’s soft – a combination of cotton and cashmere – and has a very nice fit. The rib-knit trim adds nice detail. It comes in a lot of colors – I personally have the Fern Green Heather pictured above as well as the Deep Amethyst Heather (hey if I find something I love, I like to have multiples!).
It’s nice to have something underneath, though, to add a layer of warmth. The Feminine Silk Camisole is perfect.
It’s light and breathable and holds in body heat while wicking away moisture.
The cami also has a partner, the Feminine Silk Crop Pants.
Made from the same material as the cami, these are great to wear under dress pants, like these, for example.
Lands’ End’s new chinos are, well, perfect. I love them so much. I have a black pair and a steel gray pair (back to that finding something that works thing…). They are extremely comfortable and look great. They’ll even hem them for free.
But back to the outfit at hand!
As I said, I’m in and out a number of times throughout the day, sloughing through snow to get where I’m going. I need snow boots, but I’m not ready to wear my puffy 1980s puffy plastic ones to work. Fortunately, Lands’ End saves the day with Weatherfield Boots.
These boots are perfect – they’re easy to put on (I love the toggles!), water-resistant and warm. They’ve got a 200-gram brushed tricot insulated lining – I don’t know what that is, exactly, but it means they are WARM. The sturdy rubber midsole make them functional as well. Check out the traction on those babies! They’re ideal for women on the go.
Lands’ End will keep you warm – from your cami to your parka!
