Let’s rewind to the epicness of last week, shall we? It was the first time I had experienced a Seattle winter and let me tell you, I was surprised! Coming from Toronto, I’m used to a snow-filled winter. One of the reasons I didn’t like living in the east coast was because of the extreme winters (Sorry to all my snowboarding and skiing lovers). When I found out that Seattle rarely gets more than a foot of snow at once, I was thrilled!! No more having to hike through snow mounds taller than me to get to the grocery store!

sweater: Old Navy / blouse: H&M / jeans: 7FAM / booties: Urban Planet
necklace: self made / glasses: c/o Glasses USA / belt: thrifted
So what did I do in the three days of the Seattle Snowpocalypse of 2012? Nothing super exciting, to be honest. Stayed home, bundled up in my favourite sweater, and caught up on the last two issues of US Weekly that have been waiting for me to read through. haha! Productive, I think! ;)
Last week was the strangest thing I have ever experienced. There was maybe 2″ of snow accumulated on the ground overnight and the entire city basically shut down. I know a lot of people make fun of Seattle drivers for not knowing how to deal with snow, but after experiencing this first hand, I now know what it’s like to be a real Seattlite! Apparently we (I’m slowly turning into a west coaster!) are really into being environmentally friendly and environmentally friendly salt just doesn’t fight snow/ice as well as the harsh salt on the east coast. Seattle is also a lot hillier than Toronto, so it’s not common to watch buses or cars slide down steeper parts of downtown. Definitely a scary sight!
