Fleece Lined Tights: Cold Weather Function & Fashion

Zoe Zeigler New York Style Blogger Zoe Zeigler New York Fashion BloggerIt’s not even mid-January yet and I’m already over the cold. While we’ve been blessed with some mild days over the past month here in NYC, there’s also been ones cold enough to make my hands and toes feel like they’re gonna fall right off. One thing I’m not willing to do, despite the cold, is loose my sense of style in the name of warmth.

I love to wear skirts and dresses year-round, including when temps dip below freezing (like today). And thanks to God’s gift to women in winter months, I still can. Fleece-lined tights are pretty much the best things ever for stylish women in cold climates.

Fleece Lined Tights for Cold Weather

These things are SOOO friggin warm. Seriously. I’m warmer in these tights and a skirt than I am in a pair of jeans alone on a frigid day. Despite their stay-warm qualities, they’re also thin enough to even pair with pumps or high heels. Fashion and function. I love them!

Fancy Fall Coat

Orange Wool Fall Coat Zara

Some people, especially in New York, think that fall and winter are the seasons you take all your brightly colored items in your wardrobe and pack them away for the warmer spring and summer months. WRONG! You can still incorporate brights (and whites for that matter) all year round. Take this orange coat for example.

9 Beauty Hacks From Curlz And The City

The other day, I was taking part in my normal day-to-day beauty rituals. You know, shower, apply makeup, do hair…etc. As I was doing so, I realized that I have a few beauty shortcuts that I picked up over the years that save me time, money and sometimes my sanity. So I thought I’d share a few with all of you. Here are my top nine beauty hacks every woman should know about.

1) Toilet seat covers double as oil blotting sheets. They work just as well, if not better than the real thing. They’re the same material as my preferred blotting sheet brand and they’re larger so I don’t have to go through 5 sheets to blot my whole face. And, best yet, they’re free (for you at least)! …

For the Love of Autumn

by

New York Fashion Blogger_Zoe Zeigler

Oh Autumn! I love NYC in the fall. The temperatures are crisp, but not yet frigid (…well, most of the time); the skies are clear; the trees transition into the most beautiful of hues; and the people are just a tad bit more nice and jolly as the holidays approach.

Fall Inspired Vintage Fashion

I decided to take one of my outfits that scream “Autumn, I’m here!” out for a spin recently. And would you believe that almost every item of clothing I’m wearing in this look are second hand?…

30 Days of ‘Funemployment’

by

I started working in Corporate America when I was 17 years old.  Four days after graduating from high school, I became the youngest full-time summer intern at one of the world’s top professional services firms. I haven’t really taken an ‘adulting’ break ever since.

Back in my Toyota days

I interned full-time every summer in college and even during the school year my senior year, when I interned in addition to holding down a part-time job. Once I graduated, I went right into a full-time role at the world’s top car company. I didn’t even take more than a few days off years later when I moved cross-country to NYC five years ago. And when I switched companies last year to work for the #1 fashion magazine, I took a total of 68 hours off in between….
