Cold weather and my hands and feet are official enemies. I have Reynaud's. So does my mom. And sister.
This means that my fingers and toes loose circulation and turn white in the cold. And by cold I mean 50˚. It progressively gets worse. My mom's fingers loose circulation in the 60s.
Gloves for us are sacred. I usually double up and layer thin, knit gloves and bulky mittens. This year I want leather gloves. Preferably opera length. I had a perfect pair a couple years ago that I accidentally left in a cab in NY. Oops.
Hopefully I can find something this year.

My sister and I both have Reynaud's too. It's the worst with my toes, they get stiff and white in the cold, even with shoes and socks!
ReplyDeleteI saw those long zip leather gloves at UO a couple of weeks ago and had to baaaaaaack awaaaaaaaaaay slooooooowly...they are so so so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI have been scouting leather gloves as well. Just stopped by Target recently and they had a pretty large selection in the $15-20 range. Must go back!
