Storm Logic Vest by ExOfficio

ExOfficio's Storm Logic Vest in Rosemary, Chica Cool Hoodie and Chaleur Boucle Flap Beanie in Thistle.  Sunglasses: Ray-Ban Wayfarers.

Wow, it is finally getting cold out here on the east coast!  Like most NYC/Metro chicks, I like to walk and bicycle everywhere. I love the cold weather so staying inside during the winter months is not an option, (another reason why I have snowshoes)!

The problem is when you're walking, hiking or biking but bundled up so tight that you can't move.  That doesn't work for me and I'm sure you've had the same experience.  That's why I was so excited to see my fave Storm Logic Primaloft Insulated Jacket remade into a cool vest!  Just like its big sister, the Storm Logic Vest packs down into it's own little travel pillow which makes it perfect to take on the train or plane.  Paired with this sweet Chaleur Boucle Flap Beanie I'm wearing, you're ready for skiing or a snowball fight, (maybe both).

Storm Logic Vest
You should invest in a vest!  One like the Storm Logic is very versatile and the soft lined collar and chin flap makes it so comfortable even when fully zipped up. Like most ExOfficio pieces, this vest is tricked out with zippered hand warmer pockets and an internal travel pocket system that gives you a place to stow your money, passport, boarding pass or train tickets.  This vest itself is not bulky and the arm holes are large enough to give you full freedom of motion. It really blocks the wind too. Dress it up, dress it down, this is probably the most versatile transitional piece of outerwear you'll ever own.
