It is very cold outside these days. That is unless you are lucky and happen to live in the Southern Hemisphere or along the equator. But for those that do not, I think BRRRRRRRRRR sums it up this time of year.

The one thing I am thankful about this time of year  is that I have long hair. It can help keep you warm if you are in a climate that won’t damage it for being too long. I have spent a long time in second life hunting for long hair, in particular life-like long hair. I finally found it at *Boon and it is called the JPN670 hair. I picked it up in the brown hair color for 200L. I have been really impressed with the details because sometimes a bit of white from texturing or prim changes can work its way into the hair textures. This hair does not have that much to my glee. With the silky texture and flexi additions, this long hair really comes across realistic.

Something else I spotted at *Boon were these headphones. Now the small ear plugs are great for certain things, but when it’s cold out the big giant headphones are awesome to have because they keep your ears warm. The ones I snagged are color changing for 350L, though they do offer ones with designs around 250L.

Another necessity that is needed this time of year is a nice warm coat. I found one at *Little Fish* that I fell in love with. This coat comes in a few different colors and all are plaid. The belt is wonderfully textured as is the rest of the coat. I really liked the winter coat attachment scluptie as well because it added to the life like feeling in the way coats fit. You can pick one of these up for 220L.

Now if you are in a setting where it’s just cold and there is no ice, high heeled boots are awesome. Otherwise you really are asking for your face to collide with the ground (unless you have just become that Hollywood pro at wearing heels). I visited the shoe fair and found these Long Boots Round for 480L from J’s. The big thing that stood out to me was not only the nice zipper texture job, but the nice shoe shine it had.  Another plus to this boot pack is that it comes with special prim feet that are meant for having pants on, making it well worth the Lindens.
