Winter in the Pacific Northwest is colder than in Phoenix Arizona, where I spent my early childhood; and colder than the San Francisco Bay Area, where I spent the rest of my growing-up years. I still had winter clothing, it just wasn't as extreme as folks who live in, say, Fargo. Or Alaska. So while I routinely had longer sleeves, thicker socks, and sweaters, I have never in my life owned a pair of snow pants. And just about every pair of mittens I have ever owned ended up being purely decorative.
When I moved up to this state, with snows-in-winter, I started needing to wear more layers. Even indoors! (Well, I could just crank the heat up. But the heating bills get pretty ridiculous pretty quickly.) I also, for the first time in my life, needed to own more than two sweaters…and needed to wear them regularly. I actually have a summer wardrobe and a winter wardrobe. (What the actual peeping blue hell, when did I become one of Those People?!??) I do like winter approaching, though, because I get to pull out some shoes and some tops that I can wear in late autumn, and early to mid-spring, but not really in summer.
