Ski Season is Here! How to Stay Warm & Stylish on the Slopes

The crisp mountain air, fresh powder underfoot, and the thrill of racing down the slopes (or for me a crawl down)—ski season is one of our absolute favorite times of the year! Living in Florida, where it doesn’t snow, we cherish every opportunity to experience the magic of winter. Stella and I recently learned how to ski, while Solomon has been skiing since he was a kid. It’s been such a fun journey for all of us, and every trip to the mountains feels like a new adventure!

Stella’s Love for

Skiing

Skiing isn’t just a sport—it’s an experience, a lifestyle, and for Stella, something she says she wants to do every year forever. She loves the thrill of gliding through the snow, racing down the mountain with a smile that’s as bright as the winter sun. Seeing her confidence grow each run is a reminder of why we love these snowy escapes so much. Whether she’s practicing her turns, enjoying a warm cup of cocoa in the lodge, or building a snowman, every moment is filled with laughter, excitement, and, of course, plenty of colorful winter fashion.

OurTop Ski Style Picks

Let’s be real—just because you’re layered up for the cold doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style! Whether you're heading out for a family ski day or après-ski fun, here are my go-to tips for staying fashionable and warm on the slopes:

1. A Statement Ski Jacket

Your ski jacket is the centerpiece of your winter wardrobe, so why not go bold? Look for vibrant colors, unique patterns, and details like faux fur-lined hoods or belt-cinched waists. Brands that mix high-performance with fashion-forward designs are my go-to for both function and flair.

2. Thermal LayerS That Pop

Layering is key, and it all starts with a solid base. Opt for thermal tops and leggings in fun prints or bright hues—because who says your underlayers can’t be as stylish as the rest? Moisture-wicking fabrics will keep you dry and cozy all day long.

3. Cozy & Chic Accessories

A warm, fleece-lined beanie or pom-pom hat is both practical and adorable. Don’t forget a great pair of insulated gloves (preferably touch-screen friendly so you can snap those perfect snowy selfies) and a chunky knit scarf for extra warmth.

4. Snow Pants That Move with You

Gone are the days of stiff, unflattering snow pants! Modern ski pants are sleek, flexible, and come in an array of fun colors and tailored cuts. High-waisted options keep the snow out, and waterproofing is an absolute must.

5. The Ultimate Après-Ski Look

After a day on the slopes, it’s all about cozy-chic. Think plush knit sweaters, faux fur-lined boots, and soft leggings or joggers. Layer with a stylish puffer vest or an oversized coat, and you’re ready for hot cocoa by the fire (or maybe a well-earned après-ski cocktail!).

Final Tips for Ski Season Success

• Invest in good socks – Cold toes are a no-go! A thick, moisture-wicking ski sock can make all the difference.

• Always wear sunscreen – The sun reflects off the snow, making UV protection a must.

• Pack extra gloves – Because nothing’s worse than wet, freezing hands mid-run.

• Have fun with color – The slopes are the perfect place to play with bright, happy hues that make winter even more magical.

Whether you’re a seasoned skier or just getting started, staying warm while looking fabulous makes the experience even better. So, grab your gear, bundle up, and let’s hit the slopes in style! ❄️🎿
