Happy New Year, Covet Shoppers. Sorry to be MIA, but we’re just getting back in the swing after all the holiday madness and then picking up that nasty cold bug that’s been aggressively creeping around NYC.
I’m Dreaming…
…of winter white. Love this, each season. How to wear it? It’s definitely not for certain skin tones, and I personally would go for something rich and creamy as opposed to white-white, but pure white can work too. For inspiration, we served up some looks and pics of the latest celebs wearing this trend for inspiration, gathered up from a variety of fashion pundits online.

- Elle McPherson (as posted on WhoWhatWear), fashion picks seen on Stylecaster, Diane Kruger (from Elle UK)

Baby, it’s Cold Outside
Last, it’s been absolutely freezing here in New York yet this week I’ve seen lots of women scurrying around town with bare legs during work hours. Ladies, why? Literally, just the other [extremely windy] day I stood next to a shivering, bare-legged damsel on Broadway and Spring who – when the light turned – ran as fast as she could, curled over and click-clacking down the sidewalk, to her office. Is it just me or aren’t tights in? I can see forgoing stockings of any sort if you’re going to an evening event and wearing a gown, but for work?!?
