I Use Ski Trips as an Excuse to Wear Chic Outfits—Here’s What I’d Pack

Winter is officially creeping up, and I’ve made it my goal to go on a ski trip this season. I haven’t gone in a few years, and since I live in L.A., seeing real snow feels like a novelty, making these trips even more compelling. The breathtaking scenery, steaming hot chocolate, and overall high energy set the perfect tone, but I’d be lying if I said that the fashion isn’t what I look forward to most. Ski and après ski outfits have a way of turning the crisp cold into an excuse to lean into seriously chic style. Between the matching sets and the fur, I get excited just thinking about it.

Because it’s been a while, my snow-weather wardrobe needs some serious revamping. The only snow jacket I own is from when I was 12, so that’s not going to cut it. So I ran straight to Bloomingdale’s—and I found every incredible ski outfit I could possibly imagine. There were bold colors built for snowy backdrops, super soft layers, the cutest coordinated accessories that are sure to tie the look together, and so much more. I may not be the best skier, but my outfits, both on and off the slopes, will absolutely be top-tier. Ahead, discover the Bloomingdale’s picks that made it onto my packing list.

Ski Jackets

When it comes to ski jackets, I’m looking for pieces that can handle freezing temps, move with me, and still stand out. Ski trips are the perfect opportunity to go all out with bold colors and lively patterns—if there’s ever a time to be unmistakably visible, it’s while gliding through a snowy mountain.

Après Ski Picks

Après ski is where the real fun begins, and the outfits should rise to the occasion. Think plush faux-fur coats that bring the drama, paired with the softest, coziest knits. It rarely gets cold enough in L.A. for me to pull out a fur coat, so I’m jumping at the opportunity to wear one.

Après ski accessories are my chance to wear all the cold-weather pieces it’s never chilly enough for in L.A. I’ve had my eye on Moon Boots for years, and a ski trip feels like the ideal moment to finally get them—along with more faux-fur staples, of course.
