Skiing is one of the sports that people express themselves through what they are wearing on the mountain. However, unless you get to ski frequently throughout the winter, or you have a very large disposable income, you are not really able to update your coat and pants every time you hit the slopes. So, you make do with what you have. The most important thing is to stay warm, and maybe try to wear the most flattering coat and pants possible, right? I mean, my coat might be really old, and I did have to get new pants recently, but they aren't anything exciting... as long as I don't look like the abominable snowman, I will be okay!
Really, I would prefer to look cute when I am having my much deserved beer while listening to the band or sitting in front of the fire at the end of the day. Alright, so how do I look cute, but I don't want to look like I am trying... effortless sporty chic! Well, it is all in the layers! So stop worrying about your coat and pants. Focus in on what you are wearing underneath, and what will look good with your snow pants and a bit of lip gloss.
Really there wouldn't be much cost involved, most of these items are probably already in your closet. If not, a little investment wouldn't be a loss. Anyway of the above mentioned items could be worn on or off the mountain... that is what is so great about this! Don't spend a ridiculous amount of money on the outer shell, worry about the layers beneath.
