Thumbs up!

"Hello!  Nice to meet you (going in to shake hands)  Oh, sorry, my hands are freezing...just came in from outside and I was just holding a cold drink."  Yeah, like a blue freezer pack?  These words come out of my mouth often and I am total lying!  MY HANDS ARE ALWAYS COLD.  And when I shake someone hands, I always feel the need to justify their iciness.  Which is why, I am a huge fan of shirts with thumb holes!  It's like wearing half a glove and I'll take it.  Maybe when I shake your hand, it will only be my pinky and ring finger that startle the north pole out of you.

My favorite designer from renegade, Jo Handmade Clothing, has been incorporating arm warmers and thumb holes in a lot of her winter line.



A little extra dose of coze...found on etsy

I've never heard of these! So cute & functional too :).

Just ordered leg warmers for Hailey from Old Navy (when I ordered the vest)... haven't purchased those since the 80's(??) I believe!

What a great idea! My hands are always freezing, too.

The last blue, cable-knit pair look very nice. I could use these since my hands are usually pretty icy too.

I'm visiting from Kori's blog for Fashion Friday!

These look so cozy! I don't think I've ever worn arm warmers but I like the idea. Especially at work. I work a later shift but they turn the heat waaaay down when the office people leave so it gets freezing! Even for me, who's rarely cold.

I was a competitive figure skater for 15 years, so I completely understand this --I'm still cold =)
