Double Trouble

If you have been reading my blog on a regular basis, you may have already noticed that I'd always like adding colours to and mixing different prints with my winter outfits. I'm not a big believer of the theory: Winter=Black. 


The beautiful blossom adds so much cheer and colour to spring; the hot temperature makes summer so attractive; and the fallen leaves take autumn to a romantic atmosphere. But how about winter? Besides the dirty and slushy roads, the never-ending cold days, as well as the gloomy and dark feelings, what else is left? Don't get me wrong though, the magnificently beautiful white snow, the winter activities, and the opportunity to play with layers are all the factors that make winter a unique and incredible season.  But after living in the minus temperature for almost half of the year, waking up while the sun is still sleeping, and unable to walk around local boutiques on Queen St, I have to admit that I do get the winter blues and need some bright colours to cheer me up.

如果你经常光顾我的博客的话,可能已经发现了我很喜欢给自己冬天的着装增加色彩和各种图案。我并不觉得冬天就一定要穿黑色。鲜花盛开的胜景给春天增加了无限的生机与魅力;炎热的天气使得夏天那么具有吸引力;飘零的落叶更是给秋天带来了无限的诗情画意,那么冬天呢?除了湿漉漉,脏兮兮的路面,除了似乎从来不会有结局的寒冷之日,除了不具生机的阴天之外,冬天又有什么值得我们欢呼叫好的呢?当然,漫天雪花飞舞的场景,滑雪等室外冬天运动,和充满机会来玩时尚层次搭配等,都使得冬天别具美丽。但是,在寒冷的冬天里过了将近半年之后,我必须承认,我的确感觉自己有冬天忧郁症的前兆,所以需要给自己的穿着增加一模亮色。

How about you? What would you do to keep your mind off the cold?
那你们一般会做什么来帮助自己从寒冬里解放出来呢?
