Snow days in New York City seem awfully glamorous yet when I was actually sloshing around I quickly realized...
1) what a hazardous slip'n slide the sidewalks actually are 2) that a white coat is completely impractical 3) ducking into cafes, boutiques and wine bars every other block is the only way to defrost 4) a night in, complete with take-out sushi and Sex and the City re-runs is the ultimate way to round out a chilly snow filled day.
And so that's exactly how I spent my Saturday. It was lovely.
Zara Jacket and Scarf. Vince Leather Jacket. Target Turtle Neck.

East coast winters are all about that good intention. I'll put together a meticulous look, then it all goes to hell because no coat is as warm as my knee-length quilted down one.

Impractical as it may be, I am loving that white coat on you! Stay warm. :)

No matter how impractical, the white coat looks awesome against a snowy city! Love the look!

I am always surprised at how frigid NYC can become! Loving the print of those pants, so unexpected and fun!

Glad you were able to enjoy your wintry day despite the weather! The pattern of your pants are totally rad. x

Those pants are amaze balls! I got out of NYC right before the snow hit, thank goodness, wasn't prepared for it :)

Even though it wasn't as glamorous as it seems you sure do look glam! :) And I'm in love with those jeans! In. Love.
I am so obsessed with your jeans! They are awesome. Also, even though the white coat may be impractical, it sure is beautiful.

Love that coat! Even if it is impractical- it's flawless!
Thanks so much on your comment on my blog! :) I have to say, I'm in LOVE with your Paige jeans! They're gorgeous and you pull them off well in this outfit! Your Saturday sounds like perfection and I'm so glad I'm not the only one who still holes up with SATC reruns!

I am obsessed with your bag!! I'm in NYC as well and my weekend plans kinda went out the window when I woke up Saturday and it was snowing! It's always best to stay in and order takeout on these days!
Since this is my first winter in my own apartment, I shoveled snow for the first time!! (Don't know why I'm so excited about manual labor)

Those paige jeans are soooo fun!
You always manage to look beyond chic when you're all bundled up! Being from NJ, I miss NYC...but I def don't miss the frigid temps! x www.casualglamorous.com
Love your printed pants!! And the white blazer.
winter white is something I am looking forward to trying!

You look absolutely lovely! And I wish we had some snow - instead lots of rain, hail and storms. Please send us some cold air over the pond. xo, Christina

I couldn't agree more–NYC snow is best enjoyed from far away in a warm pied-à-terre!
Your description of an NYC saturday is like my dream. Love the outfit and wish I was living in new york!!

Love how your fun pants are paired with a very clean white coat and a deep, rich, brown infinity scarf. Looks so comfortable and cozy!

I love my cream-colored coat too, but it's a fact that winter in New York gets nasty fast when snow starts falling! Tea and Sympathy and a night in sound perfect!
I absolutely love your outfit! It's cozy, there's layers, interesting patterns and textures. It's a whole lotta fun!

what a perfect Saturday !!, You look absolutely gorgeous when you're all bungled up. Love the color of your scarf. Those photos are so cute. I love to ducking into coffee/ tea place in Ny during winter every time I visit.

The city looks so pretty in the snow! Even if it was more like slushy and gross than a winter wonderland, these photos really capture the magical feeling of it. And a white coat may not be the most practical but I love how crisp and clean it looks in the chilly weather!
Have a great week Alicia!

Love the jeans.
Ahaha. I like this post. Well, although I've never been, NY is quite misleading. Those shops and even that cute oldschool car is super glamorous. Hmph.
I lovee your jeans(And the white coat)! Hehe.

the mistake is.... you think you can run around in something other than huge snow boots. and you cannot. i wore some ballet flats with a rubber soul on sunday, and hated myself for it!

The print on those pants is so awesome.
Sounds like quite a snow day adventure. hehe. I learned not to wear a white coat in NYC in the winter too. BUT You do look really cute and pretty on the streets of NY. Loved looking thru these pics

Winter always sounds more glamorous than it actually is. We had a big snowfall last Friday here in Chicago, and my office closed early in an effort to help us get home safely. I thought I could put up with the weather and tried to go shopping, but ended up retreating home with a bottle of wine and takeout after 20 minutes!
you look so cute!
im jealous i love alexander wang and your bag is my favorite bag!

I'm obsessed with your jeans! Do you know where they're available?
@Emily - They are available in the Soho Paige Store in NY and here online (as of right now): http://www.paigeusa.com/verdugo-ultra-skinny-tumble/d/40001363
First let me say I'm jealous you have snow! I live in Italy and we usually have snowy winters but this year it's been different. Second, love the pants and can't wait to see them in other outfit posts.

Very interesting...love the paige jeans and wish could also live such a dreamy and fascinating life.You have also written your thoughts very well...love to read them.
Those jeans look absolutely vulgar in the crotch area. This should be on What NOT to Wear.
You look great despite the snow. Love your jeans!
