Babe on a Budget: Winter Wardrobing

Colder B.C weather means cosier clothes

By Stephanie Trembath,
Life and Style Editor

s a result of the snow last week
A« getting trapped on Burnaby

Mountain for several hours, I had
the opportunity to spend my afternoon
studying for exams in the quit halls of
SFU with the other poor saps that got
stranded (which of course I didn’t do).
Instead of prepping for finals, I spent the
better part of my evening browsing the
internet for comfy winter clothes that I
lack in my wardrobe. Despite my growing
up in the Prairies, where leaving the house
between October and April with even an
inch of skin showing results in frostbite,
I have very few articles of winter wear to
save me from the dropping temperatures.

After surveying my winter wardrobe,
consisting of leather gloves, two cashmere
scarves, a pair of grey-heeled boots, and
a lovely fur-lined leather jacket with
large shoulder pads, I decidedly made a
list of weather repellent clothing suitable
for B.C babes on a budget to purchase to
ward off the cold.

1) Check print cape from Zara:
$120.

2) UO olive green rain boots: $40

3) Thigh-high socks from
American Apparel: $18

4) And although I am definitely
not brave enough to wear one,

nor do I have the ability to pull
this particular fashion item off,
for those of you who can rock
it- a trapper hat will keep your
little ears warm and looks really
sexy on the right person. Found
at Urban Outfitters for $38.

There you have it; a list of warm,
weather repellent wear that will carry
you through the winter season amid the
slushy snow, terrible drivers, and copious
amounts of wine to be consumed this
Christmas holiday. Just don’t wear all
four items together or you will look like
a fashion crash victim rather than a style
savvy babe on a budget.
