Just when you thought it was safe to tread out this winter in just a parka and jeans. Once again, Polar Vortex has reared its ugly head and a lot earlier than usual. Those brutal morning walks to the subway really makes you re-evaluate your in-it-to-win-it East Coast attitude. Wardrobe wise, it's a survival of the fittest. This means wearing your leggings underneath another pair of leggings and probably another pair of leggings.
