This weekend the weather shifted in Cabo. I know my Northeast friends will not feel particularly sorry for me but, I am cold. My husband thinks I have become a true Mexican, so acclimated to the climate here that the first “winter” winds send me inside for a sweatshirt. But it’s not true. I am not appearing at the stable every morning, as my Mexican compadres are, in long-sleeves and Sherpa-lined vests. But I do admit that the beach is less of a draw despite the plethora of tourists imbibing in water activities and such. I guess it explains the combination of bathing suits and ski jackets stacked on the tables in our local Costco.
Personally, I wish I had my Ugg slippers and an Ugg bathrobe with me this season. These best-selling items, still a brand staple, have now led me to pursue their loungewear, an interesting crossover of easy separates perfect for cocooning and just as appropriate for a casual outing. Frankly, long before the athleisure trend, this type of crossover fashion was my ultimate comfort zone. Mixing and wrapping soft cozy fabrics from my RTW wardrobe is a true reflection of my fashion personality. No wonder Ugg’s collection of cottony sweaters and leggings hit a bulls-eye with me. This lounge niche is an excellent way to layer in business for any Lingerie store that moves beyond a bra-fitting identity. These pieces, XS – XL, are quintessential examples of the relaxed design that defines the Ugg DNA: bateau necklines, drop shoulders, cropped hemlines, ribbed and tuck stitching details and stony neutral colors. Whether for my 50 degree Cabo nights or paired with boots, jackets and gloves, winter doesn’t have a prayer anywhere.
