We Can All Spice Up Our Winter Coat Collection By Adding A Pop Of Color

Colors make life more enjoyable and in the winter, there is not much color around us as everything has died and is covered either in snow or there is overcast from the gloomy sky.

Color is lost, but the colors we wear are what keep things interesting.When I was younger my mother and I would always set a date in the fall to go out and purchase a coat for the winter. This day was always filled with dread as we would argue in every store we went in about what coat was functional and what coat was fun and fashionable. There never was a compromise. At the end of the day I would just give up and agree to whichever coat she wanted to buy for me.

As I got older and I could choose my own jackets for the winter season, I would go to my local thrift store as these stores were more catered to my budget and have a relaxing day of filing through second hand coats that were interesting and colorful for the freezing temperatures heading my way. I love how old styles are coming back into fashion and I think as a New Yorker that it is important to be fashionable as well as practical with one's outerwear.

For this winter, I think the colors that are fun spirited and evoke emotion are in, such as; turquoise, aqua blue, fuchsia, canary yellow, burnt orange, deep green, lilac, and bright red. Plaid, animal print, and fuzzy textures are also a well sought-after style for this season. This trend of interesting colors and prints give character to an outfit and when wearing outerwear that is all one can see when going from point a to point b in the tundra temperatures.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.
