fur real.

brrrrrrrrr!!!! we arrived in southern utah last nite and it's cold! tomorrow we head to slc where it is much colder. aargh.

i think i'm allergic to the cold, seriously. when it drops below 70 degrees i go into some sort of shock. and when i have to get dressed that is a whole different story. what do you wear that looks good and keeps you warm at the same time? good question. i usually spend my winters walking around in sweats, bulky coats and my 10 year old battered and tattered ugg boots which my husband hates. well today i did just that but instead of my usual bulky coat i threw on my grandmas vintage fur vest that is one of my most treasured possessions.

i am in love with this vest. it also gives me pleasure to wear it in remembrance of my stylish grandmother. i am so lucky to have received some amazing heirlooms from her. one being her amazing engagement ring, which reminds me of her marriage to my beloved grandfather. i also was left some beautiful chanel and gucci vintage purses and clothing. i would rather have my grandmother here, but since that is not an option i have some beautiful reminders that i can pass down through the generations. do any of you have heirlooms? do tell.
