Winter Wonderland
Outfit Details:
Patagonia Vest, J.Crew Turtleneck, Hudson Jeans, Sorel Boots, Patagonia Beanie
Thomas and I always pop into the Patagonia store in SF before we leave for a more outdoorsy trip. Earlier in the year, I bought this Nano Puff Hoody for our trip to Alaska, which was such a great investment. It’s the perfect combination of being light enough for mild weather and warm enough for cold weather. I wear it all the time on early morning walks to the gym or weekend hikes. This time around, I bought this Down Vest that comes in a few different colors.
On our first afternoon at Dunton, we walked to the edge of the property where we heard rushing water. We turned to our left and walked up a small hill, and were so pleased to find a waterfall at the end of the snow covered forest. I think that was the moment Thomas said, “Are we in Narnia?” It was absolutely magical!
I couldn’t have survived in the snow without these Sorel boots. They are my first pair of Sorels and I’m hooked. I bought a half size down, which still left room for thick socks. Even on my first wear, they were super comfy and not once did my feet get wet or cold.
We flew into Colorado on the morning of my birthday. When we arrived at the property, we promptly ordered hot chocolate and had a snowball fight outside. It snowed all afternoon while we cuddled up inside reading books and relaxing. I usually have a hard time “shutting down”, but there was something so calming about Dunton.
Where are some of the best places you’ve ever been to for a winter wonderland? We’re talking about possibly taking a trip to Whistler or Jackson Hole. I would love any recommendations for later in the season!
hahahaha yes! It’s seems Narnia! It’s a magical place! Wow!! And quality garments and boots are a must. :)

Absolutely gorgeous. I loved Germany in winter. It was like a fairytale being there for Christmas with all the lights up and the Christmas markets. It’s been one of my best travelling experiences ever.

Beautiful as usual.
Love the looks and the snow make me dream! We don’t get much snow in London haha
I would recommend Germany or Norway I know it’s a lot further for you guys it involves flights and more money but beautiful scenery for your shoots and for Thomas to enjoy the views and photos!
That’s my recommendations Europe wise :)
Can’t wait to see where you head next!

Granby, Colorado is a beautiful place to visit in the winter! My husband and I really enjoyed Devil’s Thumb Ranch, and all of the awesome skiing at Winter Park. I would definitely recommend it!
What an amazing birthday trip! It really does look like Narnia, ha!

Dunton is such a beautiful place. My favorite winter wonderland is Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada.
These pictures are gorgeous and look like the perfect place to relax. I always find it tough to look while staying warm, but this is some great inspiration!

What a beautiful place! I would love to spend a couple of days there and enjoy the view. I really like your outfit! Have a great day!

Jackson Hole is beautiful! The views of the Grand Tetons are to die for. You absolutely must go snowmobiling while you’re there. It’s a blast! But be prepared for a workout. Breckenridge and Steamboat Springs in Colorado are beautiful at Christmas as well all year. They’re very fun rustic mountain towns that double as fabulous ski resorts!
Pearl Street Bagels – a MUST in Jackson!
This look is the epitome of winter in my book. I just moved to Boulder, CO this fall but I am going to have to make a mini trip to Dunton for sure (after seeing all your winter wonderland pictures)! Looks like you and Thomas had a blast!!

These photos don’t look real! I can’t believe there is so much snow there. I live in Canada and I’m eagerly awaiting for the snow. It’s been rather warm here, which is strange for mid-November but all I want is snow! I need to invest in a pair of Sorel boots to prepare for the winter!

Whistler is incredible! One of my and my husband’s favorite trips we’ve ever taken (and not just because we got engaged there!). We went after the New Year and the entire village was lit up every night like a fairytale. We had fresh powder every day and easily the best snowboarding on this continent (if you’re looking to do winter activities). We’ve been to plenty of snowy destinations and Whistler tops our list without question!
Hi Julia!
YouHAVE to go to Jackson Hole. I went a few years ago, and it is literally STUNNING! I stayed at this hotel which had individual cabins, horse back riding, and a short drive into town. There’s amazing art exhibits and great food in Jackson. I am in love with your trip to Colorado. So much that I’ve been hinting at my boyfriend to take me for my birthday! ;) Loved all your outfits in the snow so much that I bought the PG beanie and Sorel boots! Hope you had an amazing birthday!!!!! xo

I have been debating if I want to buy Sorel boots. I live 50 minutes outside of Chicago, and I have to walk a mile from the train station to my work. People have recommended Sorel boots. I’ve only heard great things. Also, these pictures are downright gorgeous! This trip looks amazing.

So beautiful!!! The magic of winter is always so incredible after a hot summer. Almost anywhere in Canada is pretty snowy in the winter haha I’m heading to Quebec City with my mom in December for a little mother/daughter winter wonderland vacation :) We’ve been in the summer before, but never in the winter, and I’m so excited to see the city decked out for Christmas! It totally has that old world, European vibe so it’s like a little slice of Paris in Canada :) xo
ps, Happy Belated Birthday Julia!!!! Hope 25 is just as magical as this winter wonderland :)
Loving your cold weather gear! That beanie is too cute.

Beautiful waterfall and snow scene. Love your winter outfit. I’ll be in snowy weather soon too Will look into your warm boots http://www.kblossoms.etsy.com
I am from Alberta, Canada and one of my favourite places in the winter months (and summer) is Banff, Alberta. Specifically, Lake Louise is gorgeous in the winter time. The Rocky Mountains are so beautiful and picturesque – you two would love it!
Gorgeous photos!

There’s nothing better than the first snowfall! Loving your Sorel’s. I grew up in those living in Idaho. A definite must to stay warm and dry all while looking super cute.

I totally feel you on how hard it is to “turn off” – one place we went where I was able to was Tokyo. We went in February – it was not a winter wonderland, but it was cold and the cherry blossoms were just starting to bud – there was something magical about that city. Beautiful and probably my favourite place on Earth! Gorgeous photos {as always!} – I love the knitting of that sweater, and the dusty rose lip colour! LOVE boots that you can wear thick socks with too – great picks, Julia! I hope you had a wonderful birthday! xx SS

I am a big fan of Patagonia… I have a fleece pullover from them and it is SO warm and comfy. I love the look of the vest so I will have to look into getting that! Also, I am planning on getting some Sorel boots for the winter, and I think I might go with the Joan of Arc ones! Love these pictures too!
Meghan | http://measmeghan.blogspot.com
Definitely Whistler! Also think about Verbier, Switzerland.
As much as I am LOVING this incredibly warm November we are experiencing, I cannot wait for snow! These pictures are so beautiful, and I love the vest over that gorgeous sweater!

Whistler and Jackson Hole! Both amazing with different vibes. I love Sun Valley too!
Also the Ugg Adirondak 2 boots are even better than Sorels!
What a stunning place and beautiful look! <3

Both Whistler and Jackson Hole are amazing. You can’t go wrong with either. I would die without my Sorel boots. (ok, I wouldn’t die. but I’d have VERY cold feet!)

Have you ever been to Washington DC? I loved your post on traveling to Alaska and was hoping there may be one in the future about DC!?

You must check out the Resort at Paws Up just outside of Greenough, Montana! My family went there for Christmas a few years ago and it is still everyone’s favorite vacation we’ve ever taken (it even beats France and Spain). It was just magical- sleigh rides in the snow, dog sledding, snowmobiling, horseback riding, impeccable cuisine, and luxurious and private accommodations (with insane, huge fireplaces to relax by in your cabin after a day full of awesome activities). Not to mention, unparalleled customer service. If you thought Dunton was amazing, Paws Up will really blow you away.
You’re doing yourself a disservice if you don’t check it out-

I had a couple of pair of Sorel boots and sadly the rubber of the sole of the boots is kinda crapy and cheap! For 250$ boots I expect them to last more than 2 winters and each time my Sorel boots broke at about maybe the 3/4 of the second winter! Kinda annoying…
love that vest!

Patagonia really does make the best outdoor wear! As for Jackson Hole, I’ve always liked the Amangani.

I love Jackson Hole and of course Telluride or any ski resort in Colorado is stunning. But I just returned from a week in Lake Tahoe at the Ritz Carlton Lake Tahoe, which is also connected to Northstar Village. It was beyond heavenly and I never wanted to leave. Nevermind that Lake Tahoe is stunning from all views around the lake.
Enjoy planning and thank you for sharing your beautiful excursions with us! Katie, Chicago IL
I can’t believe all that snow! It’s 70 degrees here in SoCal! Stay warm :)

Loving these beautiful posts in the snow! Whistler is a MUST- it’s breath-taking there! I also love Park City, UT for a winter retreat.
This post is making me so jealous :) 1. Colorado is by far one of my favorite places to visit 2. The snow looks glorious 3. That outfit looks perfect for winter! Love it too much.

Wow that is so magical! I love my sorel boots! I swear by them! You should definitely come to Whistler I am in the Vancouver area and whistler is a magical place and the village is amazing! You would have a great time!

McCall, Idaho or Sun Valley, Idaho are both beautiful snow-covered wonderlands in the winter and two of my favorite places to be.
I can’t wait for snow around here!! Praying for a white Christmas this year we had snow on Thanksgiving last year!
Austria and Switzerland are both amazing countries for a perfect winter trip. Perfect for skiing and other amazing winter activities. I know it’s far away from your home but it’s worth the trip. ( Austria: Kitzbühl, Sölden, Zillertal, St. Anton am Arlberg)
P.S: We also have amazing Christmas Marktes in December ;)
Alaska looks like it has breath-taking views!
I second Park City- but living there makes me biased. It’s absolutely magical up here come December and our snow year has a good prediction. Jackson is lovely, but if you are interested in skiing but don’t have a lot of experience, the terrain can be quite difficult. Deer Valley has lovely runs- there is harder terrain further up, but near the base there are countless greens and blues. It’s not far or hard to get in from SF either- fly into SLC and you’re there in 40 minutes! ❤️
love this post, your trip looked magical!

Hi! Could you please share where you got the laces for your Sorels? I’ve been trying to find some fun ones for mine and can’t seem to find any. Thanks!
The boots you linked look very different than the ones in the photo. Did yours sell out?
I know this is from 2015 but just pinned your Sorels on my Pinterest site. Sorels are still great in 2017! I opted for the Sorel Joan of Arctic wedge boot this year. Love them!
