These winter months can really dull your spirit. Everyone’s wearing layers upon layers of thermal this or micro-fleece that… The only colors in my Pacific Northwestern neck of the woods are earth tones and whatever colors That One NorthFace Jacket comes in. In Chicago, the once-vibrant city became a sea of Michelin-man-style puffy jackets – which looked a lot like living in a black, caterpillar-populated metropolis. Kind of depressing.
This is one of the only times that the neon trend appeals to me. I’m not a fan of highlighter=esque hues, regularly, but the thought of these neons next to white snow, or standing out on overcast days makes me smile.
