As a clothing designer, I can't help but feel the desire to put some warmer clothes on the neighbors, lest they catch a chill! And of course, having just the right outfit for Ice Skating on your favorite frozen pond, and sipping Hot Buttered Rum or Hot Cocoa outdoors with friends is just SO much more fun when you are dressed for the weather!

With that in mind, I present my newest outfits for the season ... The Rousette Fur-Trimmed Winter Coat & Hat. A warm, caped coat with soft fluffy fur around your neck, waist, and cuffs to keep you warm, and add a bit of fun. And we all know the importance of keeping the heat in with a warm furry hat! The coat comes with or without attached skirt, so you can wear it with other skirts, or pants if you like. In two color s: Burgundy with black trim, and one in shades of brown.
'Rousette' refers to a social gathering where boys and girls are each given ribbons or roses with numbers on them, and everyone skates around searching for the person who's number matches theirs. It's traditionally a Valentine's Day event, but I think it would make a wonderful ice skating party! *g*
