Alright girls, here is a fast and easy checklist for the slopes! Stay in style with my easy to follow guide of staying sizzling hot, in the winter cold!

  1. Ski’s / Snowboard – whatever floats your boat
  2. Ski / Snowboard bag (optional)
  3. Duffel Bag (for your gear)
  4. Chanel or Oakley Goggles are always a good way to block the snow, shade the sun and look fantastic (consider over-the-glasses goggles if you wear glasses)
  5. Helmet (Don’t be too cool for this, you can’t go wrong with safety)
  6. Sunglasses – Aviators, big lens’, wrap around lens’ ( for when you step off the slopes)
  7.  Walkie Talkie

Ski Clothing:

Ski pants are necessary to keep you warm and comfortable on the slopes, but you don't need to sacrifice fashion for function. Women's ski pants come in a variety of flattering styles and will always shield your legs from the harsh winter elements. You can't go wrong with the classic black ski pant - they'll match any jacket and will keep you warm through the entire ski season. That's why the Skea Fleece-Backed Class Ski Pants are a great buy. Very versatile, these ski pants will keep you warm. Made out of tough fabric, these ski pants are durable, so they'll last you a long time.
The Salomon Snowtrip Ski Pant are softshell pants with a sleek silhouette, but you aren't sacrificing any function for fashion. Special fabric makes these softshell pants completely waterproof, but they're breathable, too. An internal waist band adjustment makes for the optimal fit, and extra features like snow gaiters keep the powder out and scuff guards that make these pants a long lasting investment.

For a hot Ski Jacket, you don’t necessarily need to hit Chanel or Pucci for a hot look on the slopes (although not the worst Idea).  You can definitely find stylish and reasonable ski wear from Salomon, Spyder, and Descente. 

Now that I have given you ladies the basics, you’ll be on your way to ski country in no time!
