How to layer (and actually look chic) for the COLDEST PLACE ON EARTH

hey guys today we're talking all about layering [Music] in case you didn't know or you don't watch my instagram stories um i live in a place that was recently announced as the coldest place on earth yes i am dead serious it is colder than the north pole and it was the coldest place on earth now recorded for three years in a row so yay i'm sharing a screenshot with you next that i shared on my instagram story just over the weekend here and this is actually how cold it got check out the what it feels like it's actually ridiculous i still can't believe that i live here um but anyway so take my word for it when i say that i am giving you all of the layering tips i am extremely experienced in this realm because we get winter nine months out of the year here and in case you didn't know by the way i live in edmonton alberta canada central canada if you don't know where that is it's not a fun place we do have some great scenery though and great hiking if you're into that i am not so there you go anyway so i'm going to be sharing with you all of my layering tips things that i've learned things that keep me super well warm enough at least let's just say that so let's let's get into this video okay so first things first you want to have really warm thermal underwear to wear underneath all of your clothes this is basically my uniform for six months out of the year i wear thermal leggings and a thermal shirt underneath all of my clothes and when you look for thermals you want to look for really good brands so when you're looking for thermals you should be looking for thermals with fleece in them for the really really cold climates like we have so for me all of my pants are fleece lined keeps me super warm and next you want to make sure that you have a plethora of super cozy socks these babies keep me warm all winter long i also have socks that are technically like thermal socks that you can get at like really cool places like mark's work warehouse my husband introduced me to that one if you're anything like me your feet get really cold i mean my feet are cold even in the summertime i just have really bad circulation in my feet so yeah winter is brutal on my feet they go numb all the time okay now we're ready to get into the layering part so starting with outfit number one this one's kind of a go-to for me i like to layer jacket on top of coat but the trick is that you want to make sure these two items are two-toned and you and i are feeling just right now [Music] cuz [Music] okay this is look number one so i think it looks a little more chic when you've got them kind of matching a little bit so i've got the red or orange in my blazer and then i've got the orange tint in my coat and then i mixed it up a little bit with the beanie to have the same color in my blazer as my beanie then i've got my big huge boots on from h m there's platform they're perfect for stretching through the snow which we have like six inches of right now actually we have more than that about nine inches of snow right now so this is the typical outfit that i would wear outside i'm sweating in my house right now so please don't ask so why [Music] okay so i like to call look number two the teddy bear look i've got a big ass teddy co on that is super warm and thick i'm layering with this cozy turtleneck sweater i like to wear whiter pants because when you have thick ass insulin on like i do kind of masks your parts a little bit better you know it doesn't things don't look as like chunky around the waist area when i tuck in my chunkier [Music] sweater not trying to play this game [Music] of course these are now a little bit more snug on me than they would normally because i've got my thicker layer on underneath but this is what i call the teddy bear look love this coat it is so warm by the way a ton of these coats were shared in my last post regarding my winter coat collection so i'll link that below as well if you want to check it out i have tons of really warm winter coats in the meantime check out this teddy bear look these mittens are so warm they have like this super cozy soft fleece on the inside and they're faux leather on the outside and they're just like the warmest gloves i found them in a boutique i don't think i'd be able to like link them unfortunately i was just like boutique shopping one day when in banff actually where we're going next weekend and i found them and i just fell in love with them so i bought them and now they're like staples in my winter wardrobe anyways everything's a little bit like looser fitting which is great you wouldn't be able to tell that i'm not wearing a bra this is just something that i would like normally wear out [Music] next up we have what i like to call my chicest outfit my favorite long tailored camel brown coat so here we go with my trusty levi's if you guys don't know i wear levi's like 90 of the time on my instagram page i just love levi's so much so of course they had to be in this video and i got on the same turtleneck sweater that i was wearing before just tuck this in a little bit then we've got some cute suede booties with a little bit of a thicker chunky heel they're not like the easiest to walk in i'll be honest here but they do have a chunky heel which means they're easier to walk in than if i were to wear something like stilettos or just whatever something with a thinner heel so i like to dress it up sometimes by the way if you guys didn't know hats and toques and beanies and stuff are like a staple in my winter wardrobe it was so cold yesterday like this whole week really that i went outside for like two minutes and my head actually hurt i'm not kidding like my scalp hurt it felt like it was almost like burning it hurts so that's how cold it was so yeah hats and beanies are like a must in your wardrobe so trusty little hat from boar here is look numero chase i can see what's going on in your mind of mine i know just how to [Music] okay honestly the last is probably my favorite because it is the most comfortable wear ever like it's i could wear this all day every day i could sleep in this it's so comfortable and it is none other than the classic sweatsuit a gray sweatsuit i know it sounds really boring but bear with me because there is a way to make the classic gray sweatsuit super chic because that's what that's what we're all about here in this video is how to dress chic for freezing cold temperatures aka the coldest place on earth now these are so warm so i have my thermal underwear on underneath this and then i have this huge thick fleecy layer on top which is amazing i always wear this sweater during winters and it always keeps me so warm oh it has four percent wool in it i'm really surprised but mostly cotton and acrylic well anyway this is from and other stories this one has always i've had this sweater for like four years now and i still wear it season year after year like it's just so warm and we've got the nice winter white coat on and the two it's not only about warmth but i think the toque is such a cute little accessory to add to just pretty much any of your winter wardrobe looks now i would be lying if i didn't say that i didn't wear uggs 90 of the time in the winter months here like uggs are my staple shoe if there's any shoe that you're gonna wear let it be uggs uggs of any kind they are so warm which is really what this is all about so you've got to be warm so this is my final look look number four the sweatsuit with uggs surprisingly i don't have that many scarves i like three scarves that i just wear on rotation and this one happens to be my favorite because it's oversized and really thick [Music] i don't have to so that's it for these winter looks and how to layer i hope you guys enjoyed this video and if you did please please give it a thumbs up and subscribe it means so much to me um and if you have any suggestions or if you like and he looks best let

been avoiding all week no fun going outside when it's like this but luckily kevin and i are going to banff this weekend so we'll get a little bit of a break in the super super cold and we'll just go to kind of a cold place which will be nice for a change so yeah anyway i'm gonna get going and i will end it here and see you guys next week
